ReviewsPraise for Sarah Darer Littman Backlash "Littman pens a raw, frighteningly realistic, and absorbing look at cyberbullying and the damaging effects of airing private trauma in a public forum." -Publishers Weekly "[T]his is a powerful and credible story" -Booklist Want to Go Private? "A bold investigation of potentially lethal, if common, mixture for teen girls: emotionally immaturity, technology and emerging sexuality." -Los Angeles Times "This book is a compelling, if not disturbing, read." - School Library Journal Life, After "Convincing and absorbing." -Publishers Weekly "Littman catches the voice of teen readers with her spot-on dialogue and realistic situations." -The Jewish Journal Purge "An intimate and powerful novel." -The Stamford Times "With an underlying but not heavy-hand message, this may start a few conversations." -Kirkus Reviews

Everyone tells her to "make an effort," but why can't she just be herself? Abby quickly feels like she's losing a grip on her once-happy life. The only thing she cares about anymore is talking to Luke, a guy she met online, who understands. It feels dangerous and yet good to chat with Luke--he is her secret, and she's his. Then Luke asks her to meet him, and she does. But Luke isn't who he says he is. When Abby goes missing, everyone is left to put together the pieces. If they don't, they'll never see Abby again., Abby and Luke chat online. They've never met. But they are going to. Soon. Abby is starting high school--it should be exciting, so why doesn't she care?
