Ok-the more you compare it to Crave, the more you make me want to read it...damn.

I felt the same way about the rape scene in GWTDT. I was on a long plane flight when I read it and think I would have honestly put it down and never picked it back up, if not for the plane. I am glad that I kept reading, but it amazed me that the book was recommended by everyone when the violence towards women was so disgusting and so pervasive.
