I thought this book was good, and it seemed to depict high school pretty accurately (as someone who has left high school in the past 3 years) but there were times where it felt like there was too much added into the plot.
At one point there was a bit of a love story, and it felt like a moment of "Seriously, do we have time for this?"
At times the reasonings of the characters and their motivations were too outlandish, or that there was too much going on within them. Other than that, it was a pretty quick read, since the entire book takes place within 54 minutes, the plot moves pretty quickly.
