This book was absolutely everything and it broke me. The tension is maintained so well all the way through and then at the end the emotion finally catches up and it’s heartbreaking. All the characters feel so intricate and real, the was they respond to the situation and their connections to it was crafted so well. The 4 perspectives from which we see this story are all connected to each other as well as to the situation and she shooter. It is clear that all these perspectives were chosen for a reason and although we may not see the situation from all angles we see it through those to whom it has the biggest impact. I loved the way this subject matter was handled and reading this made me more aware of this horrifying reality that some people have to face. 5 Stars.
