Dark Room Etiquette by Robin Roe
4.0
Please read this book. I was hesitant when I started reading because the beginning started out as a typical high school drama. I wasn’t impressed by the writing and the relationships felt forced and bland. But once you get through about 90 pages are so, we meet Caleb, and the story really begins.
It is disturbing, and it is heartbreaking, and it is just simply a great book. The relationship between Caleb and Sayers is complicated and deeply emotional, where simple actions and words have great meaning to the overall story. That was the part I liked most about the “middle” part of the book. It was not boring,and I think the author hit right on the nail the complicated emotions a victim goes through in situations like this.
There were certain things that I did not like about the book, and parts that I felt could have been removed or delved into deeper. That does not mean you shouldn’t read it. It is a deeply saddening and moving piece of work, and I recommend it 100%.
