A fiercely authentic, critically acclaimed and award-winning modern classic.'Speak up for yourself - we want to know what you have to say.'From my first day at Merryweather High, I know this is a lie.Nobody will even talk to me, let alone listen - all because I called the cops on an end-of-summer party.But if I could only tell everyone why I called the police that night...If I could explain what happened to me... If I could speak...Then everything might change.'With the rise of women finding their voices and speaking out about sexual assault in the media, this should be on everyone's radar... Powerful, necessary, and essential.' - Kirkus

Which young adult books would you recommend to people who don’t usually read Y.A.? I never thought about writing for teenagers until I was 22 and read “Speak,” by Laurie Halse Anderson, and “Monster,” by Walter Dean Myers.
