Don't even k ow how to rate this book. It's heart wrenching and made me cry but it is also horrible to think how real this is for so many people and an author is making money from writing a fictionalized version of it. 

I ended up caring more about some of the side characters (Matt) than the door main characters. Which tells me that this is not the best book regardless of subject material.

This book revolves around the POV of 4 main characters experiencing a school shooting. Obviously a difficult subject to write on and one that’s going to upset people one way or the other. I’m left feeling bummed out, but in a satisfying way. I don’t love every aspect of this book, however I think the author did what she intended to. To invoke emotion through writing is a talent
