I really like this book for the most part. The beginning was very much what I expected this book to be, and I enjoyed getting the story form multiple points of view. However, as they started to remember things, I wish that what they had remembered was used as more of a focal point and more important when it came to the end of the book. The end seemed a little rushed and not as much of a revelation as I was hoping that it would be.
Moderate: Death, Death of parent, Kidnapping, and Mass/school shootings
