Could not put this book down. Marieke is an amazing story teller, and she tore my heart out in million pieces with this story! Tackling an important issue today, gun violence, Marieke tells the story of the students at Opportunity High, who are going through one of the most tragic things that could happen to someone - a school shooting. This story keeps you on the edge of your feet, and breaks your heart in half. A must read!
I wouldn't say that i hated this book and i wouldn't say that i love this book. I contemplated whether to dnf this book so many times. The first 3/4 of this book was horrible while it was impossible to put down the book for the last 1/4.
3.75/5
Plot: The premise of the book and most of the delivery are done well. The way that the book ends is unbelieveable (unrealistic) and too dramatic for my tastes.
Characters: Too many characters to follow to be fully flushed out.
Spice Level: None.
Theme: YA; Violence
Would Read Again?: No
This book, one of the best books I've ever written, completely broke my heart. Correction, it broke me as a person. The detail made me feel like I was a part of it. It was so beautifully written that it felt as if I was hearing a story from someone who lived through it. Although it will give you serious heartache, please read this.
It's very good. It was hard to change the perspective because it goes between the 4 main characters POV's. There are times where you just want to continue with that one person, but then it'll switch.
It's very captivating.
As heart wrenching as this was to read, I do feel like it is a great book.
