“Sorry I‘m late,” he says, shrugging a little shyly. “I needed to finish the book.”

This book sold me on its cover, thou plot didn‘t hold a lot of water. Seems a great high school read; young male teacher being inappropriate to a student and the fallout SHE got from it. How the school didn‘t believe her and how fellow students made fun of her. Did like her article but didn‘t feel authentic in how the book showcased her reaction. Felt her reactions weren‘t intense enough to get me feel her. Love her supportive family and book club

You‘re a good girl. But you don‘t always have to be so good.

Such a great and important book. I realized after reading this that all the books that we read in school only have a maximum of two minor female characters. It‘s unnerving how necessary this story is. Marin has her life turned upside down after her favorite teacher kisses her. Her best friend ditches her, people start yelling at her for “trying to get the best tracker fired”, and she can‘t even enjoy her favorite class anymore. 5🌟

use it to impress your friends at parties.”

“And that,” Mr. Beckett says, leaning against the edge of his desk in third-period AP English, ankles crossed and dark eyes shining, “is the story of how Hemingway and Fitzgerald the most famous literary frenemies of the twentieth century. Full disclosure, it probably won‘t be that useful to you on the AP exam, since for some reason they don‘t test your knowledge of hundred-year-old publishing gossip. But you can keep it in your back pocket and

Meh...⭐⭐⭐/5 Well-intentioned YA plot that didn't necessarily deliver.

Quick Blurb: Girl discovers the power of feminism when her teacher assaults her.

I rated this one 3/5 but maybe I should have rated it a 2. The cookie cutter romance overshadowed the story, which lacked diversity.

This one surprised me...I had low expectations going in but I honestly think this is a must read for teenage girls

Full review here: http://girlwellread.blogspot.com/2020/02/rules-for-being-girl-by-candace.html.

This book was just missing a lot of context. The idea and plot points were there but it needs more substance to be a good book. The biggest issue for me is the lack of realism. It didn‘t offer a thorough look into student life, and the effect and actions that would likely follow the school and people involved when a student comes forward about inappropriate actions made by a teacher.

“there are so many unspoken rules for navigating high school - for navigating life, maybe - that I can‘t help but try to figure out which one I broke to get myself into this situation. There are too many rules for girls.”
