This was a very difficult story to read. If you have read the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson Inexcusable is the book from the male perspective of that story. Inexcusable is a story of how much destruction self-deception can cause. It is Keir’s version of his senior year of high school. Keir is an athlete, not real great at academics and he enjoys popularity and partying. He loves his family. Keir is a good boy; the kind of boy that follows the rules; the kind of boy everyone wants to be friends with, who know how to have a good time. And yet something goes terribly wrong. The hardest part about reading this book is that it is written as his thoughts so you are part of the self-deception up to the very end. As Keir likes to say, “The way it looks is not the way it is”. It is not an easy story to read, but definitely a story every good guy needs to read!
