erinhanso's review against another edition

challenging dark emotional hopeful informative medium-paced

I am going to avoid leaving a star rating for this, because it feels impossible to rate a non fiction, especially with this topic. 
This is incredibly well researched and squashes so many myths about the Columbine tragedy. My perception of Columbine was that the two boys were outsider atheists and the girl said yes before she was shot- spoiler alert, this is all false. Definitely worth a read, but check your triggers.

Really informative book that tries to document all the details while also trying to disprove the mythos around the tragedy.
