I watched the movie in my English class and was truly moved by it. Such a powerful cause and I'm glad I read the book to get more of an insight into these kids' lives.

Inspiring tale of "at-risk" teens who succeed through writing and the guidance of an idealistic teacher who won't accept defeat. The stories do become repetitious after a while.

DNF on page 208. This just seems really heavily edited and I am having to do a lot of suspension of disbelief. Not my cup of tea.

If it hadn't been so heavily and obviously edited, it would have gained five stars for me. However, I was deeply touched by the students' experiences, most of them were too heartbreaking and raw.
