Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll
2.0

It took me a long time to get into the book and once some action took place, I was committed to finish it. I'm glad I didn't read any of the reviews prior to reading the book and I have to admit I checked this book out of the library because it was on a list of books similar to Gone Girl.

Like the reviews I read after completing the book, I have to admit that I was thoroughly unimpressed. I didn't like the main character and there was no emotional connection to any of the characters at all and there were so many of them! Also the range of topics was intense and there were far too many: rape, bullying, distorted eating habits, gun control to name a few...it was a whirlwind that's for sure!

And what the heck happened to her teacher at the end??? He just disappears and that's that???
