 ***Minor spoilers, TW: RAPE*** 
 All of Romy's friends turned against her after she called the sheriff's son, Kellan, out on raping her. Nobody believed her, and she was branded a liar while at the same time losing all her friends. There's a Senior party at Wake Lake every year, and Romy never planned on going. But when her previous friend Penny shows up at Romy's workplace and tells her she may have found another of Kellan's victims, she goes to the Wake Lake party. However, that's where everything goes blank. She doesn't remember anything, only that she comes to on the side of a road when she is found by a deputy. That same night, Penny went missing. Romy doesn't remember anything from that night, but if she does, will she find something she wouldn't want to see? 
 I didn't expect to like this book. I read it for a book club, and it's a book I normally wouldn't pick up, and one that several of my friends said they didn't like all that much. It had a strong message and it was definitely a story that needed to be told, and the writing wasn't bad. The main reason I didn't like this book is because I like for my books to have something even remotely happy if it's a contemporary, but things never seemed to look up in this book. 
 I actually found it pretty confusing. I couldn't understand the timeline all that well. I was okay after the memory (or whatever is was) but I'm still struggling to fit in where the memory at the beginning of the book fits in. It seems like it would be at the party, but the memory was labelled NOW and the stuff after is labelled TWO WEEKS EARLIER. Then I thought maybe it was what happened with Kellan, but why would that be in the future when she's being bullied about it two weeks earlier? It's still something that bothers me. 
 For me, personally, there's some sort of threshold where there is too much grief in one book. I know many people enjoy the strong emotions a book like this gives you, but for me the anger and sadness took away from the book, because normally I read for enjoyment and I felt like I was just reading to become sadder. I couldn't really connect with Romy, but it still angered me how she was singled out by her peers because they took the word of a popular boy over hers. Also, I didn't really like the ending of the book. It feels like it cut out too soon, and I would've wanted more closure. 
 Overall, this wasn't terrible but it just wasn't the book for me. It had a strong message and an emotional story, but it was just too depressing for me to be able to enjoy. If you're reading this for some sort of happy ending for Romy, don't bother. I'm not saying that it gets worse, I'm just saying that things aren't particularly looking up for her. This is realistic, but I'm more of a happy closure sort of person when it comes to standalone contemporaries. However, I would recommend it if you don't mind how depressing the book is.
