If We Had Known by Elise Juska

5.0

Very suspenseful and told with a lot of heart. I finished this book the day of the Jacksonville Madden shooting, so the narrative felt all too real.

Update (2 days post read): I have just now come to realize that the book really doesn’t say anything about the shooter or what his family/friends did/didn’t do wrong. It’s about the third parties, the people who went to the same school, the same mall, knew so and so. These stories are just as valid in mass shooting situations and it was refreshing to read a macro approach
