The whole book sounded like a normal high school experience with a girl who is falling for both the popular guy and the lonely misfit.... I was NOT expecting that ending though. To be honest I wish I did because it hit me hard. I kept wishing I knew beforehand or some kind of warning because it may trigger others as well.. might possibly end up a banned book one day in my opinion but then again it sounded like a 90s setting which most touchy subjects nowadays were considered common back then. Regardless, its been added to my favorites list of books.
