I really enjoyed this book!! It was so fantastic and I loved getting to read it early thanks to Netgalley! Please pick this one up ASAP!!!

Feel No Evil by Stephanie Kepke is an engaging read that will leave you on the edge of your seat. If you experienced a sexual assault, how would you survive it? What would it take to move on? Could you forgive the perpetrator? These are all questions that Kate Berg must answer while trying to move on from the assault. This story portrays the resounding effects of an assault, not just that night or that year, but years later. When Vin (the man who assaulted her) comes back into Kate’s life, can she continue to move past that night? Will all of her progress be derailed? The only portion of the book that I did not care for was the parallels made to current politics (ie. Donald Trump). I read fiction books in order to escape real life and this was not a part of the book that I enjoyed. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Could you forgive a person who did the unforgivable? What if your life literally depended on it? Can a person change? Can good people do bad things and bad people do good things? These questions and many more will leave your mind reeling in Feel No Evil by Stephanie Kepke. Definitely not an easy read – but one that will make you think. Recommended. #FeelNoEvil #NetGalley

I read this book slower than the average person, probably because I was absorbed by the character development and it was easy for my mind to wander into what would I do in Kate's situation. Thankfully, I have no personal experience to draw from, but I feel that the story is relatable to both victims of the #MeToo movement and people with eating disorders in general as well as an eye-opening tale to those of us who are ignorant of such horrors.

This story details the damage caused in one night that forever changed the trajectory of Kate’s life. The male assailant was unfazed and his ambitions still on track; suffering no repercussions. Then, decades later, he re-enters her orbit. Now, at a vital crossroad, who will survive this last skirmish? The situation and storyline are serious so they deserve serious consideration. It’s eye-opening and needs to be read. While not light, if it helps a victim cope, or others to empathize, it is necessary reading. If you know someone with an eating disorder, this might give insight to support them, and to help a victim become a survivor. Recommended.

Thanks NetGalley, Backlit PR and Stephanie Kepke for a copy.
Would you be able to forgive someone who caused you so much damage if you had your apology?
How can you move on and lead a normal life after surviving a cruel assault?
An engaging emotional read that succeeded to describe what is going inside an assaulted woman and how the damage didn't just end at the assault's night, how it enveloped her afterwards jeopardising not just her relationships, her family but even her own life.
As much as it's a hard read, it's also an encouraging Whisper that says to every woman out there who was attacked that you are not alone, we hear you, you are not going crazy and you can and will rise up again.
Highly recommended.

This was a hard read but engaging nonetheless. I think more women struggle with these issues silently and this novel conveyed what it must truly feel like to be going through it. Raw and emotional. When do you speak up? Can you forgive someone who took away your core sense of well-being? I don’t ever think those decisions are easy. Recommended.

Omg talk about a book to leave you on the edge of your seat. I was totally enthralled. Left wanting more. I think I have a new favorite author. Thus book was EVERYTHING. I could have read this straight through but life got in the way. Man this is a book to read again and again

Could you forgive a person who did the unforgivable? What if your life literally depended on it?
This book was pretty good! Very interesting. From beginning to end. The story I guess could have been better! But other than that it wss a good quick read.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with access to this book!

This is not an easy read, but it is quite gripping and alluring - would recommend it!

This book grapples with at what point do you come forward with an assault and what are the consequences when you do...Timely provocative and mesmerizing. I highly recommend this book.
