A review by bethpeninger
Columbine by Dave Cullen

5.0

This book was excellent. I saw another review in which someone questioned the need for this book in light of events like Virginia Tech. As someone who lives and lived in Colorado at the time of the Columbine event I can say that there is a great need for this book. It helped me see the whole picture rather than the one the media and Sheriff Stone painted. Dave Cullen did an outstanding job of giving us a 360 view. I loved this book because it answered questions that have been lingering, it put to rest untruths and brought out truth and it gave greater insight into the lives of the two boys who did it. It helps the reader to see that the fault doesn't lie with those still alive, namely the boys families, but the fault lies within the sick minds of the boys themselves. Thanks to Dave Cullen for writing this informative piece of work. To those of us in Colorado we needed a book life this to answer our questions and settle our unease...even all these years later.
