This was a really good read, it added a nice twist to the school shooter scenario.
Uncle! I can't take anymore! I hate having to DNF a book but I seriously can't keep going with this one.
Read this on tape. Well done, overall, I think. But not awesome. The main character was sympathetically unlikable. Ending a bit pat, but not bad.

I wasn't thrilled about this book.
1. I didn't like the main character at all or her mother. Always wanted to be someone else doing everything to fit in.....blah
2. I felt like the author was trying to fit ever teen scenario in the book at once. (school shooting, rape, underage drinking/drug use, bullying, teacher/student relationships) it was just too much for my taste.
However it did keep me reading to the last page so i gave it 3 stars for entertainment.

Struggled to stay engaged with this book. It was good, not great. There’s a movie version on Netflix which was also good! A little different from the book though.

I loved this book. Knoll does an excellent job crafting a main character you both root for...and sort of hate. Plus, the end has a unique twist!
