Rating: Summary: A great read! Review: A heartbreaking and yet uplifting book. Moore imbues her characters with real life, pain, emotion. We really feel for them as we follow their story, their struggle to "overcome", as they triumph in the end. I love stories that are about friendship at the core of them, and this one definitely is.

Rating: Summary: Loved Break Even Review: The best part about this book is the ambiance of college life and the realistic feelings of the main characters in the days and weeks after the horrible events take place. I can really feel the reality of both girls being attacked and their struggle to "break even" afterward.I loved Kat and Jenna and really felt like I know them! Ms. Moore draws a very clear picture of them both, and the book flies by. I stayed up all night and read it!
Rating: Summary: A great book! Review: When her best friend, Jenna, is raped on the University of Nebraska campus during her senior year, the event brings back all the horror of Kathleen's own rape that took place on the same campus four years before. As Kathleen struggles to support her friend during the difficult aftermath, she is determined that the only way either of them can "Break Even," is not to allow the pain and humiliation of the events to ruin the rest of their lives. While Jenna's approach to overcoming the trauma is quite different than Kathleen's, each learns in her own way that through the love and compassion they have for each other, it is possible to overcome anything. This story gives hope to women everywhere who have been attacked and are rebuilding their lives...it is possible to go on!
