I was in middle school when I picked up my first nonfiction book about Columbine (not this particular book). Ever since, Ive been interested in the subject and have read both fiction and nonfiction books about school shootings in general. I was happy to find this because it is from the point of view from someone closer to the subject than a lot of other authors. This book will make u emotional and run to your mom and hug her/tell her you love her.
