    Tampa
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2017*

You're going to have a problem with this book. That's just a fact. Putting puts you right in the head of a pedophile and the only way out is through.Based somewhat on real events, Tampa tells us the story of the aptly name Celeste, an eighth grade teacher obsessed with her underage male students.It's dark, it's very graphic. It's hard to read, it's short but will feel much longer. There are sense that are hard to get through. Nothing does not pull punches here at all. The POV she chose will not allow it. From the moment you start this book you are in the head of a psychopath as she hunts her prey.This is Lolita without the flowery beautiful prose. This is pure and raw. A female pedophile, whose thoughts must be on par with any male pedophile, reminds us that safety for us and or children is only an illusion.

    Fascinating and Depraved
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2019*

Giving this one 5 stars because of the outstanding writing and the fact that I laughed many times at THE most inappropriate places. The subject matter is truly vile but the writing really pops. A must-read."Ford, like the husbands of most women who marry for money, is far too old. Since I’m twenty-six myself, it’s true that he and I are close peers. But thirty-one is roughly seventeen years past my window of sexual interest."Yes, this is the voice of Celeste, the main protagonist of this fascinating novel. She is a teacher and a predator. She is also possibly a sociopath. She lives for each new school year, with a new crop of young boys, not quite even matured to late teenage-hood. She is a hebephiliac - she is sexually interested in pubescent (early adolescent) boys.However vile I found Celeste, I still loved this book. Be warned: there are graphic scenes between Celeste and her victims. But the dialogue and the social observations are crisp, sharp, unwavering and spot-on."There was something repulsive (and revealing) about talking on a cell phone while handling garbage. Why did anyone pretend human relationships had value?"I knew that this story would not end well but I just could to look away! 'Tampa' is a commentary on societal norms, the value of superficial beauty in our society and the inability of out of us to accept the truth even when it slaps us in the face.Celeste focuses her stalking skills on a young named Jack Patrick. She grooms his carefully: would he be likely to keep a secret? Living with his dad, he seems the perfect target."With a dull roar, the buses began rolling by and my eyes followed them like I was watching a shell game at a carnival: all of them looked identical, but one had a prize inside. Which bus was Jack’s?"'Tampa' has been on my TBR list forever and I am so glad I read it. Alissa Nutting is a brilliant and insightful writer. I loved her very depraved sense of humor. While the ending was a little too rushed for my tastes, this book is still unforgettable.

    Very strange...
  

*by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2018*

I read all the reviews before purchasing it and I remember when this book first came out and I was hesitant to read it. I thought to myself, what the heck I might as well! I wouldn't say that this book is horrific or repulsive but yeah, its gross at times. I read the whole book because I enjoyed the writing style but I have to say it was a strange read. I have definitely read more cringe-worthy books in the past and I wouldn't say this was one of the worst but the topic in and of itself is uncomfortable. It definitely reminded me of Lolita a bit (which I could not finish because THAT book made me so unbelievably uncomfortable). I just felt that the storyline took an odd turn at some point and the character started to take on a different form/personality that I didn't associate her with in the beginning. Overall, I wouldn't exactly say I would recommend this book but at the same time, it wasn't as awful as some of the reviews made it out to be. Just be prepared to find yourself feeling like mayyyybbeeeee you shouldnt be reading this around other people who could possibly look over your shoulder and get the wrong idea!
