Asking For It by Louise O'Neill

5.0

I thought I was disappointed about the ending but I'm not. This book was written so well with extraordinary detail into the characters traits. I don't want a happy ending because that does not happen. Emma is made to be this cocky, lying, popular girl and for the first 50 or so pages I thought dear God I'll never make it through this but nope. Amazing
The social media aspect was the most honest - seeing only the best of somebodies lives on Facebook when they had control over their own profile but the photos oh God
The use of repetition was used SO well, words like 'Force' and the phrases of 'Slut, whore, bitch'.
