- W4385962362 abstract "Reviewed by: Forgive Me Not by Jennifer Baker Wesley Jacques Baker, Jennifer Forgive Me Not. Paulsen/Penguin, 2023 [400p] Trade ed. ISBN 9780593406847 $19.99 E-book ed. ISBN 9780593406861 $10.99 Reviewed from digital galleys R Gr. 8-12 Fifteen-year-old Violetta Chen-Samuels has been detained in Queens, NY, at the Piedmont Facility for nearly a month after killing her younger sister in an underage drunk driving accident. Her parents have yet to formally forgive her, which means she must face three Trials to prove she's rehabilitated, according to a widespread juvenile correctional reform that allows a victim's family to determine a series of tasks or experiences the offender must endure. Curtailing recidivism is the stated cause for the Trials, which has Violet eventually working with dead bodies at a morgue before being slut-shamed by an ex during six successive periods of televised assemblies at her high school. This controversial approach has all the familiar makings of teen dystopia, but it serves more as a plot device for passing commentary about race and inequity in incarceration rather than a full worldbuilding premise. However, Violetta's story remains intimate and grounded as her incarceration [End Page 6] knowingly mirrors and subverts the experiences of so many young people of color and their families affected by the criminal justice system. She shares narration with her older brother Vince, whose struggles with addiction and guilt show how much this speculative and sadistic spin on restorative justice still carries the destructive force of our current unabashedly punitive system. From drug and alcohol abuse to sexual assault, child death, and self-harm, the triggering potential is high with this one, especially for how little the elaborate what-if setup ultimately offers before the Chen-Samuelses find their happy endings.
