really liked it

I did really enjoy this book, even though the writing style was pretty simple... the plot more than made up for it. It's such an important topic and I love that the reader only gradually grows to understand what has happened (mirroring Melinda's memory).

I would recommend to high school students. Even though some of the content is disturbing, it's an important book for teenagers to read -- and the writing style means it's really accessible.

Samantha (Bookwyrmsam) I hope to read this one at some point (although sadly I've been spoiled for most of it because we watched the film at school)


Betsy Gant Just finished this, and thank you Ruby for choosing it for this month's read. Certainly difficult topics to read, but this book forces us all to open up the discussions of rape, bullying, depression, suicide, and loneliness (among many other themes in this book).
