Fall 16 Kids'' Indie Next Pick "Padian''s latest boasts a swift, excellently crafted plot, exceedingly readable prose, and painfully relatable characters. It is especially surprising to find an affectionate involvement as believable as Haley and Richard''s in the middle of a story centering on a rape investigation. Particularly relevant for high school seniors and college freshmen" -- Booklist, starred review "Powerful, suspenseful and illuminating . . . With intriguing, flawed characters and a gripping storyline, Wrecked by Maria Padian offers readers a view of a college sexual assault case that is as engrossing as it is important . . . valuable, riveting." -- Shelf Awareness for Readers , starred review "Padian excels at showing the messy aftermath of a sexual crime in a college community . . . This is a novel about truth and the damage done--to a community, to a person, and to relationships--when hard truths are hidden . . . Wrecked should be assigned to all incoming freshman, especially fraternity members. It''s not enough to have students sit through lectures about sexual assault and rape. They need to learn about it through a story where they see humans instead of statistics, and, as in Wrecked , the very real ripple effects that such a crime can have on an entire campus." -- Portland Press Herald (Portland, Maine) "Outstanding, powerful, and important . . . This is, hands down, one of the best sexual assault reads in YA, and it''s a book that high schoolers of all genders should read." -- Kelly Jensen, Book Riot "In the face of recent college rape trials, readers will be rapt and emotionally spent by the end. An important, devastating new perspective on an all-too-timely subject." -- Kirkus Reviews "Revelatory, deeply real, and urgently important." -- Nova Ren Suma, author of The Walls Around Us "This is an important and, unfortunately, timely novel . . . This isn''t just a book that all young men and women should read; it''s gripping and human enough that many will want to. Shelve and display alongside Laurie Halse Anderson''s Speak and Courtney Summers''s All the Rage." -- School Library Journal "Padian avoids oversimplifying or stereotyping as she explores one such assault and its aftermath, telling a story that combines the most painful, everyday, and emotionally intimate aspects of college life . . . Padian''s expansion of the story to include friends and family lends it visceral realism, allowing readers to imagine themselves in a similar scenario without asking them to envision themselves as either victim or perpetrator." -- Publishers Weekly "Rape on college campuses is a massive issue right now (hopefully not forever), and Maria Padian''s new novel Wrecked delves into not just the emotional and physical toll it takes on survivors but the bureaucracy and red tape that exists within the structures that are supposed to be stopping it." --Bustle "Padian''s boldest effort yet . . . a powerful, dramatic story with strong messages." -- Morning Sentinel (Waterville, ME) "Padian''s characters come beautifully to life in this enthralling and powerful novel. They allow us to step into their shoes and wonder how we would act, what side we would choose and if right and wrong can be defined as sharply as the world wants them to be." -- Middlebury Campus (Middlebury College, VT) "Chapter after mesmerizing/engaging/compelling chapter. . . I absolutely could not put down this timely, poignant and thought-provoking novel. Wrecked should be required reading for every rising college freshman." -- Pinestraw Magazine (Southern Pines, NC), Fall 16 Kids' Indie Next Pick "Padian's latest boasts a swift, excellently crafted plot, exceedingly readable prose, and painfully relatable characters.

Synopsis
"Outstanding, powerful, and important . . . This is, hands down, one of the best sexual assault reads in YA."-- Book Riot What really happened at the party that night? Haley saw Jenny come back to the dorm, shell-shocked. Richard heard Jordan brag about the cute freshman he hooked up with. When Jenny accuses Jordan of rape, Jordan claims she's lying. Haley and Richard, who have just started dating, are pushed to opposite sides of the school's investigation. Will the truth ever come to light? Reputations, relationships, and whole lives depend on it., On the same night college freshman Haley sustains a career-ending concussion on the soccer field, her bookish roommate Jenny arrives home shell-shocked from a wild party. The next morning, on the other side of campus, Jordan brags to his housemate, Richard, about the cute freshman he hooked up with. When Jenny formally accuses Jordan of rape, gossip spreads like wildfire through the campus.

- r***r (2948)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (12)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
