I really enjoyed this book. I know that other people who wrote reviews said that it couldn't have been that bad for her, but I know first hand how fast it can get out of control. I also had rocks and dirt clods thrown at me when I was in high school. Kids would push me into lockers or throw things at my car. I finally cracked one day when a kid through a rock at the windshield of my car and broke it. I got out of the car, ran him down, and punched him as hard as I could in the face. No one really bothered me after that. I didn't go to a large school either. My school was a K-12 school where I graduated out of a class of 26 students. Even now, after 8 years, if I see someone I graduated with, I get really anxious and upset. This book brought back bad memories, but I always knew that I wasn't the only one hurt by high school bullies.
