Blurred Lines - LA Cotton
CWs: toxic masculinity/misogyny, rape culture
Short story. Senior yr HS. School paper editor published exposé on football team, now has to shadow QB in serious bothsidesism bullshit. Toxic sports-related masculinity from coach, calls players ladies. Players joke she's their whore. One spikes her drink at a party.
Hard fucking pass. Did not finish. Fuck this author.

Crown of Thorns - EM Snow
CWs: teen drinking, fatshaming, classism
Senior yr HS. Newly merged, now coed boarding schools. Poor girl among the rich kids. Second series in the same universe; should likely not be read without reading first series, Angelview Academy.

Devious Game - Bri Blackwood
CWs: kidnapping?
This was too short to really get a too feel for what the full book would be like. Female protag is running through the woods after a kidnapping attempt? Maybe? Then flashback to high school grad 3 yrs prior. Then another flashback to 3 mos ago when she arrives back in her hometown.
Very meh.

Immoral Confessions - R Holmes
CWs: Bible quotes, Catholic school, parental fatshaming
Senior yr HS. The mousy prep & the school's bad boy. She's in the library after hours, overhears him & his friends discussing a house they burned down. She runs, he chases.
I'm *so* in.

Sweet Little Nothing - LK Farlow
CWs: rape (non-graphic flashbacks), PTSD, attempted suicide (pills), absent/negligent mother
FIRST OPENLY QUEER CHARACTER! (Friend of female protag is multisexual.)
Deeply traumatised female protag. Her rapist's BFF is at same college, is out for revenge. Probably skipping this one. Stepsibling rape is a limit for me.
