Customer Reviews
Really great storyline!
I love her writing but I can sometimes get lost with all of the different characters. I liked this book a lot.
Good read
A pretty large cast of characters, and sometimes it was a bit confusing, but overall an enjoyable book. The plot was well developed, even though some characters needed more work. It did make me wonder why some teens act in such ghastly ways and why bullying continues to plague our society. So sad, and this novel drives it home.
