Waiting on Wednesday (#73) - All the Rage by Courtney Summers


 Waiting on Wednesday is Hosted by Jill @ Breaking The Spine
 All the Rage

Goodreads Summary: The sheriff’s son, Kellan Turner, is not the golden boy everyone thinks he is, and Romy Grey knows that for a fact. Because no one wants to believe a girl from the wrong side of town, the truth about him has cost her everything—friends, family, and her community. Branded a liar and bullied relentlessly by a group of kids she used to hang out with, Romy’s only refuge is the diner where she works outside of town. No one knows her name or her past there; she can finally be anonymous. But when a girl with ties to both Romy and Kellan goes missing after a party, and news of him assaulting another girl in a town close by gets out, Romy must decide whether she wants to fight or carry the burden of knowing more girls could get hurt if she doesn’t speak up. Nobody believed her the first time—and they certainly won’t now — but the cost of her silence might be more than she can bear. 

With a shocking conclusion and writing that will absolutely knock you out, All the Rage examines the shame and silence inflicted upon young women after an act of sexual violence, forcing us to ask ourselves: In a culture that refuses to protect its young girls, how can they survive?

 Why I'm Waiting For It: I absolutely love Courtney Summer and all her book because she has such a unique way of approaching certain issues pertaining to society today. All The Rage sounds amazing and I love the whole concept of it. Young woman in culture is something that is relatble to readers of today and Summer sheds a new light on it. CANNOT WAIT FOR IT!

I am also part of the Blog Tour for the book so expect to see a review and interview this month!
