i think the topic of date rape is rarely explored enough. jack weyland wrote a beautiful, heart-felt and heart-wrenching story, about Brittany's ordeal with just that. it helps us realize how common and down played date rape really is made. Brittany's rapist is given a slap on the wrist as a result of a lot of hersay, which adds to her heart-ache. Yet she manages to find love again after working through so much. good- but definitely not for someone under the age of 14.
good book

Deals with the subject of date rape. Well written. Teaches some valuable lessons, including: date rape can happen to nice girls; it is important to report the rape immediately; you will need professional help to promote the healing process; your Bishop/church leader can also help with the healing process. The story was well written. It held my interest. It was written for the Mormon market, but would probably be enjoyed by other Christians, too. (Mormons are Christians).
