1. Yes, it was engaging. Even after you finish reading the book, the story stays in your mind for a long time. Jodi clearly explains what is happening. The book is really addictive but she overdid some parts
2.She was trying to emphasize that we should fully understand a person before judging them. The entire plot of this novel is constructed around a high school massacre. It involves the events leading up to the tragedy, the tragedy itself, and what happens aftermath.
3. Yes, they do. I am not able to identify with them. Yes, there is one character in the book called Josie Cormier, she reminds me a little of my primary school friend - joining the popular crowd in order to protect her own interests and leaving her true friend just because the popular crowd thinks that she/he does not fit in with the rest.
4. Yes, the part where Peter Houghton shot and killed ten people and injured nineteen at his school. It gave me a shock to think that a child could go to such an extent just because he found the bullying unbearable. This lead me to a new understanding that you can't expect what will happen to happen the way you want or expect it to because most of the times, things happen unexpectedly and it is impossible to know how it will turn out in the end.
5. I learn that you should not make fun, bully or abuse weaker students just because you don't like them or that they don't fit in with the bigger crowd because sometimes, it may leave a very strong and lasting negative impact on them and may even cause them to have some kind of mental disorder and commit criminal acts.
