Caitlin doesn't want to be safe. She doesn't want the "perfect, football playing" boyfriend. She wants someone different, someone like Rogerson. Rogerson has a sad background but that doesn't make him a bad guy right? WRONG. Rogerson is a very bad guy. Rogerson is bad from the moment he hits Caitlin for the first time.

This book was really touching. The subject of abuse is really hard to write about and i think Sarah Dessen grasps it well. The only thing that annoyed me was that NO ONE noticed the physical and mental changes in Caitlin. How likely is that?

You should buy this the next time you go to the book store!
