Columbine by Dave Cullen

5.0

An eye-opening, candid, third person look at the tragedy that defined public school safety for years to come. This book is not only riveting, but it is expertly written and offers a very objective look at the events that led to the Columbine massacre, the depravity and mental illness of the two shooters, and the aftermath of large-scale tragedy. For someone who grew up around the Columbine massacre and felt the shockwaves a country away, this book was extremely enlightening. As an educator this book stirred more emotions than I thought possible. While this book will help readers understand the logistics of that fateful day, and it may help understand the foundation of the killers' reasons, it will still leave so many questions forever unanswered.
