I'm so happy I got the chance to read this beautiful book. Amy Beashel writes with pain emotion so raw that you can't put the book down until you see the characters safe and well. 
The depictions of the conflicting emotions that arise from domestic violence are honest and unflinching. The portrayle of both toxic and healthy forms of masculinity are informed, clever and complex allowing us as readers to pinpoint exactly what the difference is between someone who wants to protect and someone who wants to control. 
The handling of controversial issues such as abortion are pitched perfectly and fairly. The over riding theme of 'my body, my choice' that reappears throughout the novel is wonderful to see and at the end of the book I felt empowered and inspired.
My one tiny criticism is that around the midway point I feel a shift in the narrative voice that at some points feels a touch forced. Izzy's sudden movement from never swearing to frequently swearing for example dosen't feel 100% believable but otherwise I have no other negative comments.
I am confident that only positive outcomes could arise from giving this book to teenagers and I for one will be doing my part in getting it into their hands.
