This book was quite well-done. The characters go through a lot, and the author makes you care about all of it. The pacing was a bit slow for my liking, but there were many characters' stories to follow; they all tied together by the end. I love Simone and Reed and their character arcs. They both struggle but come out stronger. While I would've liked to see a bit more intrigue, I appreciate how well the author captured the feelings and struggles of those who experience a traumatic event like a mass shooting.
