literarymystique 's review for:

The Julian Chapter by R.J. Palacio
3.0

This was an unnecessary addition to a wonderfully built crafted story. Wonder made me laugh, cry and just feel good. But this book just made me angry. Bullying is such a mean act, and I was shocked to see how this boy had a reason for every act he did. Of course, this is what happens. Having experienced it first hand, I know, that every bully considers himself to be the hero and justifies his actions. This is wrong. Nevertheless, I was glad that a good ending even to the villain is granted, it gives a positive finish to the entire story.
