I absolutely enjoyed reading this book. The author’s voice felt appropriate for high school events and not so over the top that I just rolled my eyes the entire time. I appreciated the reverence and respect for which vagueness was applied to descriptions of the sister and what happened. To her. This is how you reference victims in stories. Also, I absolutely loved the sisterhood that wove throughout the story, that’s my ultimate favorite part.
