A review by lilymg_07
Bully by Penelope Douglas

emotional mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? N/A
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

“While I liked this book for the most and was captivated by the author's realistic portrayal of bullying, I must admit, this book left me with mixed feeling. “- goodreads person

“Sauntering over to me, Jared grabbed the hem of my hoodie and said, “Take this off and give me a lap dance.”
“Jared moved his head from side to side trying to catch my eyes, his lips inches from my face. “If I ever lay my hands on you,” he said low and husky, “you’ll want it.” He brought his lips in even closer. The heat of his breath covered my face. “Do you? Want it, I mean?”
“Tatum?” His voice sounded soft and gentle, and I instantly felt warm all over. But then he spoke again “I wouldn’t care if you were alive or dead.”
“Did he hurt you?” Jared asked evenly, but his lips were tight, and his eyes were murderous.”
“Jared moved in front of me and stared down at the broken glass. “I make you nervous,” he said without looking up at me. His assessment was dead-on. I knew it, and so did he.”
