TW: school shooting

I’m not sure I would have picked this up on my own, but that’s part of what I love about book club picks. This story was heavy, emotional and was eye opening to various pressures high school seniors face. I binged this book, I needed to know what was going to happen next and really loved the redemption in this.

Shooter wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I DEFINITELY got Breakfast Club vibes from it, though. Only instead of detention, they're locked in a bathroom during an active shooter lockdown 🤷🏼‍♀️ Told over the course of an hour and through 5 different view points, you get an inside look of what it's like to be a high school senior (who really wants to go back to that though, even without the lockdown? let's be honest 😂) and the ups and downs of being a teenager and being different
