Book Review of Nineteen Minutes

Nineteen Minutes
Nineteen Minutes
Author: Jodi Picoult
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on


The story behind a school shooting, but with a twist--it looks sympathetically at the family of the shooter and how even a kid who performs a horrendous act has someone who has loved him. Picoult provides a good in-depth look at the potential consequences of bullying. It really makes you think about judgements and that we need to dig beyond the surface to find truth.
