 ... past and to leave behind everyone that she loves. It is difficult for me to admit that this book is probably one of the best books I have read in a long time. The storyline is absolutely shocking, it is depressing and heartbreaking. But even though it is far from a happy read, the reader will appreciate what a brilliant piece of writing this book is, that so clearly manages to get into the characters' minds and convey the distress and the fear of the dark secret coming out on every single page.

Rating:

Carole, a studious, shy and overweight girl and her very much opposite glamorous friend, Naomi, find themselves months before graduation from a fancy Manhattan high school with only one dilemma: They are still virgins. The girls make a pact to lose their virginity before heading to college. Eddie Lindbaeck, a good-looking and charming rebel, is more than happy to assist the girls with their ambitions.

It's the 60s, and overweight Carole and her friend Naomi are desperate to lose their virginity before graduation. The two girls decide who will be first, on a dare.

After the drunken fumbling encounter is over, Eddie demands Carole's silence, threatening to tell her parents what they ...  Read the complete review
