A review by moirwyn
The Color of Rain by Cory McCarthy
4.0
Although the novel is being marketed as Young Adult, I think that it’s a prime example of the New Adult genre. It’s written in a similar style as YA novels, but because sexual violence and coercion is a major plot element, it’s more appropriate to older teens or college students.
The relationship between Rain and Johnny can best be described as a battle of wills. Both of them are the type of people, for better or worse, who will stop at nothing to get what they want. The scenes between Johnny and Rain resemble a game of cat-and-mouse, but Rain quickly realizes that she can manipulate Johnny by playing up his view of the ideal woman.
