"Anderson’s prose is so gorgeous . . . that at times the book needs to be put down to absorb her utter mastery of language."—Entertainment Weekly★ "In this powerful memoir told in free verse, Anderson delves into her past. . .Her potent words and willingness to shout her message are proof of the soundness of that advice." —Publishers Weekly, starred review★ "A captivating, powerful read about clawing your way out of trauma, reclaiming your body,and undoing lifetimes of lessons in order to use your voice as the weapon it is. Fervent and deafening." —Booklist, starred review★ "Readers new to Anderson will find this accessible. It's a strong example of how lived experience shapes art and an important book for the #MeToo movement." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review★ “A praise song to survivors, a blistering rebuke to predators, and a testament to the healing power of shared stories.” —The Horn Book, starred reivew★ "Will ring out to readers who themselves believe in the power of stories." —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, starred review★ "In searing free verse, Anderson unloads decades of trauma on these pages . . . Longtime Anderson fans will appreciate this deeply personal look into how the author channeled her pain into the writing of Speak, and readers new to her work will be swept up in her singular style, which melds bold honesty with fluttering moments of lyrical beauty." —Bookpage, starred review ★ "More than a gifted writer, Anderson is an advocate for anyone who feels alienated. Her sensitive, incisive book is essential for all young people." —School Library Journal, starred review★ "Immensely powerful." —Shelf Awareness, starred review★ "Poetry is very often written to be heard, and this collection in particular ought to be heard—spoken proudly by Anderson, outloud, and at full volume." —Booklist review of the audio edition, starred review"With Speak, Anderson opened the door for more novels exploring the deeply felt and deeply personal aftermath of sexual violence. SHOUT serves as both a testament to the life-altering, lifesaving impact of these types of stories — and as an urgent and brutal reminder of their ongoing necessity." —The New York Times Book Review "A powerful testament that bears witness not just to [Anderson's] own pain, and the pain of others similarly abused, but also to the power of speaking persistently, time and time again, about topics that most people don't want to hear." --The Los Angeles Review of Books"An absolutely essential read for teenagers and the people who know them." --Refinery29 Laurie Halse Anderson is a New York Times bestselling author whose writing spans young readers, teens, and new adults.

Bestselling author Laurie Halse Anderson is known for the unflinching way she writes about, and advocates for, survivors of sexual assault. Now, inspired by her fans and enraged by how little in our culture has changed since her groundbreaking novel Speak was first published twenty years ago, she has written a poetry memoir that is as vulnerable as it is rallying, as timely as it is timeless. In free verse, Anderson shares reflections, rants, and calls to action woven between deeply personal stories from her life that she's never written about before. Described as "powerful," "captivating," and "essential" in the nine starred reviews it's received, this must-read memoir is being hailed as one of 2019's best books for teens and adults. A denouncement of our society's failures and a love letter to all the people with the courage to say #MeToo and #TimesUp, whether aloud, online, or only in their own hearts, SHOUT speaks truth to power in a loud, clear voice-- and once you hear it, it is impossible to ignore.
Shout I purchased this book from Amazon to read. All opinions are my own. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Shout by Laurie Halse Anderson. I have wanted to read Shout since I picked up Speak almost a year ago. The two books say something so loud you need to listen. The one thing these two books say is silence to stay quiet. There is no shaming involved but the book was deep, personal, almost so personal anyone can relate. It is about not being silenced when you feel you are wronged either by someone else or by a family member or friend. It is about finding your voice when you feel like you don't have one. A set of poems that will inspire you to Shout not be silent.A painful memoir with a powerful message Shout was moving, emotional, & raw. Laurie Halse Anderson does a great job of helping you “experience” the tragic events in her life. She makes excellent points about what we are teaching our young boys about sex and how it leads to a culture of rape. We can do better.MUST READ Laurie Halse Anderson didn’t just write a memoir in verse, she a poet, whose voice drips the poetry of youthful innocence and pain.Childhood set her up to be victimized by It, the boy who raped her, the way girls and women were subservient to boys and men. I know this because I was born in 1964, two or three years after Anderson. As I listened to her narrating the gem she titled SHOUT, tears pricked my eyes, because her experiences echoed mine so closely I nodded at her memories, thinking #MeToo whether she spoke of listening to the Watergate hearings on the radio (my memories are watching on TV) or the tragic embarrassment of being chosen last in gym class by popular, athletic classmate captains.I listened to the audio of SHOUT and also purchased the Kindle version, which I’ll read later this week, after I’ve recovered from the book hangover that I might last forever.SHOUT made me want to write a poetic version of my memoir, to express myself in verse that could never be as elegant as Anderson’s.SHOUT made me feel lucky that Laurie Halse Anderson exists and that she writes for teens in words that resonate for adults as well.SHOUT made me feel tears from my childhood still unshed.SHOUT made me hope for the years of pain her young readers can avoid by knowing that they can and should SPEAK if they are victims.SHOUT made me feel.
