3.0

The book was the same as in the movie, Carrie's character made me feel so sorry for her, I fervently believe that if everything had been different (both the mother and the many people who gave her so much), it would be a different case.

Carrie is a highschool student living in Chamberlin with her Mother, (Margot).

My Review:

This book was so amazing, also very sad. People should have taken her more seriously and her mother should've been there for her. This book was also reflective, in a way that tells me to check in on people/don't bully or make fun of people cause you never know what they're dealing with.
