There were two characters that I kept on confusing for each other despite the fact that one of them was inside and one of them was outside. The book is told through the POVs of 4 different characters: two who are outside the auditorium and two who are inside. There are even times where it felt like the author purposefully upped some of the tragedy to elicit stronger emotional reactions from the readers. If I were more prone to DNFing books, I probably would have stopped right there. I was a complete mess by page 90 and I honestly didn’t even want to finish the book. I’m going to start this review by saying do not read this book if you are easily triggered by violence. It only takes a few minutes before the shooting begins. Only, when the students try to leave the auditorium this year, the doors won’t open. Every year the speech finishes exactly at 10:00 and the students file out of the auditorium to go to their classes. An extremely tragic story that I kind of wish I never read.Īt the beginning of the semester, the principal of Opportunity High School gives the same welcome speech.
