I Have the Right To: A High School Survivor's Story of Sexual Assault, Justice, and Hope

(3) YA With Jenn Abelson. The teen author details her life before and after she was raped by a classmate. Prout provides a captivating but troubling insider's view of the dangerous student culture at an elite boarding school as well as a sympathetic portrayal of the wide-ranging consequences of reporting assault. Although her emotional memoir is perhaps over-long, Prout's transformation from survivor to activist is powerful and moving.
