While centered around an awful fictional school shooting, this book does such a great job at humanizing everyone involved, from the teen perpetrator to the lawyers involved in the case. It's a complicated look at societal expectations and how we all have an impact on one another, for better or for worse.mimamia's review against another edition

I read this for my book club, and did not like it very much. I found it a bit triggering at times and boring at others - pretty hard to get through. Honestly, it also felt like it was way longer than it needed to be.
