3.0

It’s hard to describe how I feel after finishing this book. It’s definitely not an easy or light hearted topic to read about, and so many aspects about the story are sad. But in a way the story felt unbelievable at times, or it almost felt like Tyler was playing a game and just some of his comments felt cheesy at times, which sounds wrong but I don’t know how else to explain it. The ending wasn’t very satisfying either, and I don’t really know why. Tomás was my favorite character and I did like his story. I know this story is fictional and isn’t based on any specific shooting, but the stories and events just felt unrealistic at times.
