    <body><![CDATA[This is the kind of book that would ordinarily frustrate - and even anger - me, but I can't explain why without giving something away. Micah is an unpopular senior at a private high school in Manhattan (or is she?). Her secret, immensely popular boyfriend Zach has gone missing, is discovered dead, a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/65978824">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[  The book only works if at least the seeds of the truth are in there somewhere to support it.  <br/>  It's the things she goes back and forth on that are the most important (hermaphrodite or no? sex or no? Jordan or no?).  When you combine the cage, the parents dropping her off and abandoning her,...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77956439">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I ran into a colleague on the subway when I first started reading this book. When describing the voice of the book to her, she said &quot;oh, the unreliable narrator.&quot; As I just finished the book, the term &quot;unreliable narrator&quot; barely taps into the character of Micah.<br/><br/>Micah...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76960879">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is difficult. Hard to talk about without ruining anything, and also hard to really describe as an experience, let alone rate. This is a book about a seventeen-year-old black girl who is dating someone else's boyfriend, until he is brutally murdered.

    <body><![CDATA[Micah is the ultimate problematic narrator--she's telling you right off the bat that she's a liar.  Her story, at least initially, is that her secret boyfriend Zach (who also has a non-secret girlfriend, Sarah) has been killed.  But was he really her boyfriend?  When did she last see him?  Did she h...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74519228">more...</a>]]></body>
