ONE OF SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL's BEST BOOKS OF 2022 In You Ruined
It, Anastasia Higginbotham, acclaimed author of Not My Idea: A Book
About Whiteness, sheds light on the confusion and pain that many
children feel in the aftermath of incest and sexual assault. When
11-year-old Dawn discloses that a favorite cousin sexually
assaulted her, it's hard to tell what hurts more: the betrayal or
the fall-out. After all, everyone always says to tell someone, but
does this mean she'll never get to hang out with him again? What if
he goes to jail? And the biggest question of all: How will she know
if she can trust someone again? You Ruined It is a testament to a
child's experience of a confusing betrayal, her broken heart, and
the loved ones who help her piece it back together. I wish I had
this magical brave book when I was young and being abused. So
beautifully rendered and carefully told. May it inspire anyone
caught in childhood sexual abuse to tell their story and get free.
-V (formerly EVE ENSLER), award-winning playwright and author of
bestsellers The Vagina Monologues and The Apology
