It alternates between a young man who has been charged with beating his girlfriend’s present day (consquences, family violence classes, etc) a well has his diary that details what happened to get him there (abusive home life, etc.) It brings up so many important discussions: Self esteem, healthy relationships, red flags of dating violence, etc. We read it over the whole term and students love it.
