I think the highlights of this book are 1) the roundness of every single character and 2) the agency the teenage characters had. YA books can often contain flat characters, and their protagonists can feel like teenagers that things are happening to, rather than teenagers doing things. This book gave depth and dimension to every one of its characters, as well as giving them a chance to make their own choices and stand their ground. I’m very impressed!

From the first chapter the reader is brought into the story of 5 students in detention for having a phone in their bags.
When one of the students dies from an allergic reaction a series of events happens that change the other 4 students lives for the worst.
This had me guessing right to the very sad end.
