Although it is hard to read, it is good to read. Many people don't realise how easy it is for teens to be involved in unhealthy or abusive relationships, and how hard it is to get out of them. Monique Polak does a fabulous job demonstrating this.Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. First of all, So Much It Hurts was not the right book for me. I think it covers an important topic, but it was almost as frustrating to read as it is to watch a loved one go through abuse. Perhaps that is a good thing as it accurately reflects that emotion, but I was left feeling regret at picking it up. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I could not put this book down I thought the author was a bystander in my life. I met my ex when I was 17 and thought I knew everything just like Iris in the book and my ex was 12 years older than me Iris's "boyfriend" is 14 yrs older than her but as far as I am concerned they could be the same person! Very good picture of how an abusive relationship starts and why it is so hard to leave. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. Even though I knew this book would deal with an extremely sensitive topic, I could not finish reading it. I know that abuse happens in many forms to many different ages, but I found Iris, the main character, too trusting and at times desperate. I read around 150 pages, and I felt that the author could have begun to introduce the interventions even more so, but the other characters in the book just seem to be ok with Iris' abrupt decisions and changes. Maybe abuse has touched me and my loved ones too closely; maybe I just wanted to scream at her and her loved ones. I did skim the last few pages to see if another character finally said something to Iris. I think the interventions came a little too late. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This was a super fast-paced novel that I got through in literally like 4 hours. Maybe it's because my next novel deals with many of the same themes in this novel, but it had me on edge the entire time wanting to know what was going to happen with Iris and Mick (Kudos for unique names, too). I also super duper am in LOVE with the cover. It's such a simple but effective cover. I was glad to see that this story was much more than just a physical abuse type of story -- that there was hope and strength involved as well. Overall, I really enjoyed this novel! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
