"Blurred Lines is a meticulous and complex analysis of sexual assault." - The New Yorker "[Grigoriadis's writing] is so vivid, you just want to keep hanging out with her on the page and listen to what she's thinking about. But what's most refreshing is that Grigoriadis isn't afraid to untangle the hairball that is college sex, even though someone -- whether it's the hardcore feminists or the Men's Rights bros -- will rip apart any idea that falls outside of party lines. Yet Grigoriadis dives in because, as she says in the book, she believes that to actually understand why there are so many reports of sexual assault on campus, you have to actually, explicitly, and finally, figure out what is going on in these bedrooms, and talk it about it candidly." -New York Magazine "Grigoriadis [is] the ideal observer and analyst of sexual assault and consent on campus. Starting from the famous case of Columbia mattress carrier Emma Sulkowicz, she spoke to hundreds of students -- victims, activists, and the accused -- as well as parents and administrators, coming away with something like a clear picture of generational confusion. Avoiding both easy answers and ideological rubrics, she advocates vigilance, moderation, fairness, and good faith." - Vulture "Grigoriadis spent the past three years interviewing hundreds of students, student-activists, researchers, and administrators to go beyond the salacious headlines (though there are plenty of those covered in her book) and instead focus on the underlying cultural forces that not only drive sexual assault on campus but have also catapulted it into the spotlight in recent years." - Refinery29 "An in-depth look at the new sexual revolution that's been taking place on college campuses and the confusion surrounding it." - New York Post "A deep dive into the millennial generation's cultural proclivities, confusions, musical tastes and lingo (in which being "woke" represents a state of heightened consciousness and "catching feelings" is one presumably regrettable effect of casual sex).... [Grigoriadis] points out perceptively that the bedroom is one place where today's otherwise strong, self-confident young women still too often feel pressured and unable to advocate for their own interests." -Chicago Tribune "Remarkable....The new sexual assault spotlight is changing our thinking about consent, blame and responsibility, a shift that shouldn't be dismissed." --Washington Post "Vanessa Grigoriadis... engages the complexities of sexual statistics in Blurred Lines, a richly complicated and beautifully written chronicle that offers a...nuanced and responsibly researched panorama of student life." - Jacobin Magazine "Grigoriadis has pulled off something truly remarkable -- a nuanced and deeply compassionate account of one of the most convulsive chapters in recent American culture. Blurred Lines pushes beyond the sensationalist headlines and political rhetoric to reveal the complicated stories underneath. This book has given me a whole new understanding of how we got into this mess -- and how we might get out." --Sarah Hepola, Blackout: Remembering the Things I Drank to Forget "An essential handbook for college students who must navigate the hazards of social media, online porn, gender fluidity, and mind-altering substances --
