Resonant and authentic to its core. This timely, critically acclaimed, and award-winning modern classic has now been transformed into a powerful graphic novel. "I Said No." Melinda is an outsider at Merryweather High. Something happened over the summer—something terrible—and now no one will talk to her, let alone listen. Why should she speak up? Through her work on an art project, Melinda finally finds the courage to confront what truly happened that night. But before she can make peace with the ghosts of the past, she must face the reality of the present—and stop someone who still wants to harm her. Only words can save her. She can no longer remain silent. With the rise of women finding their voices and speaking out about sexual violence in the media, this should be required reading for everyone... Powerful, necessary, and indispensable. Kirkus
