I simultaneously didn’t want it to end… and knew I’d need a cigarette as soon as it did

This is a long one. Told from various points of view of a school shooting. The shooter, his friend since childhood (who is not really his friend anymore as she’s popular but she has a soft spot), and both of their mothers. One a midwife, one a judge. Oh and the cop who showed up on the scene.
A twist at the end that you can kind of see coming around the middle. But a well written book that could have stood to be a little shorter.
