Book of the Week

BotW is back! Check out my suggest for this week.


"Everybody’s got rights. A man tied to a bed got rights. A man down in a dungeon got rights. A little screaming baby got rights. Yeah, you got rights. What you don’t got is power.”



Written by: Justin Torres

Written in: 2011

Why you should read it: Every second of reading this book makes you afraid for the protagonist. His experiences bordered along the lines of sexual, mental, and physical abuse but never fully got there. I assumed the worst at each scenario, and I don’t know if that’s just because of my nature or because the author intended the words on the page to do so. Either way, the prose in We the Animals was so powerful, so raw, his syntax so full of life. It's also a major motion picture! Check it out on Youtube, Amazon Prime, or on Netflix!


Check back next week for a new book!
