That’s a lot of hate towards a teacher.

Wow!
It's been a while since I've read human depravity at this level.
The story worked - the bully and the bullied, the mentality that allowed this to go on for so long, and the drugs, (it had to have the drugs).
The reason I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 was 'The Dark Ones'.
*Not really - but possible spoilers ahead*
It's only my personal opinion, others may completely disagree. 'The Dark Ones' took the story somewhere that I didn't think was needed. As a coping mechanism - yes. But, the bit at the end was something I think the story could have done without.
