Man, What?! 

This was one of the strangest books that I’ve read all year. From the bombshell dropped by the teacher at the beginning, it had my full attention. Her revenge was so over the top. As it extreme as it was, I had compassion for her. The rest of the story was told from the perspective of the other characters. I really enjoyed getting such a comprehensive view from their input. It was intense, but very interesting to see how the revenge affected the two students and their families. The more that was revealed the more shocked that I was. My jaw dropped when the teacher popped back up. She delivered an epic mic drop moment. Man, this was a wild ride.
