Anyone got any suggestions for books about the aftermath of male sexual assault that doesn’t romanticize it. I’ve already read The Perks of Being a Wallflower and loved it. by Roux_the_catboi Related: Books with a cruel world contrasted by characters that still maintain their goodness. Currently enjoying the Kathy Reichs Bones series Books similar to novels of Barry Eisler, Vince Flynn/Kyle Mills, Don Winslow, Greaney/Carr/Hurwitz, John Grisham Books with an unreliable lifeline Suggest me a book set in Italy during the rise of fascism
Temporary-Scallion86 on April 11, 2024 8:00 am A Strange and Stubborn Endurance has this. Didn’t love it personally but I seem to be in the minority. CW: assault occurs explicitly on-page
No-Scene9097 on April 11, 2024 11:17 am It’s deep in the series, but book 8 of the Spellmonger series by Terry Mancour, Enchanter goes into this in detail. Good series in general.
