Nudes

Nudes (Exposed, Book 1) by Sarah Robinson

My takeaway from this is the complete opposite of what the book intended. 🙃

By the end, the book is simply a pedestal to preach about gender equality, while the narrative within contradicts its own message. (Not so much sending a different message, but more just negating the intended message.)

But more important than having an inconsistent message, it unintentionally shines a light on humanity’s selfishness. How, even at our most giving, we are biased. How we only care about justice when we become the victim. How we only support a cause when we’ve been effected by whatever that cause is fighting. 

Look at the main character: where she started, where she ended, and how she got there. Would a different journey have led to the same end? Would she had become an activist if she hadn’t been victimized herself?

Our kindness is merely the result of circumstance.
