Hate List

Hate ListThe list was my idea.

I didn't mean for anyone to die.

Will you ever forgive me?



Five months ago, Valerie Leftman's boyfriend, Nick, opened fire on their school cafeteria. Shot trying to stop him, Valerie inadvertently saved the life of a classmate, but was implicated in the shootings because of the list she helped create. A list of people and things she and Nick hated. The list he used to pick his targets.

Now, after a summer of seclusion, Val is forced to confront her guilt as she returns to school to complete her senior year. Haunted by the memory of the boyfriend she still loves and navigating rocky relationships with her family, former friends and the girl whose life she saved, Val must come to grips with the tragedy that took place and her role in it, in order to make amends and move on with her life.

 Wow, what to say. This is about a school shooting, but so much more. Its the story or Valerie, whose boyfriend shot her and lots of other people at their school. After recovering she now has to deal with all the pain, all of the guilt she has.She went through a lot during the story and had to come to face a lot of personal demons, she had to struggle to even just go to school everyday. This book is very good, ( what else is there to say?) and I really loved the reality of the story and all that she went through. I would defiantly recommend this, if you are looking for a heavy read.
