This book came out in 2007 and was Jodi Picoults first book to debut at #1 on the New York Times Best Seller list. The book is an unpacking of a school shooting, following the events that lead up to it and the impact after. It's really really really heavy, so heavy that although I have the book on my to read shelf I haven't touched it yet.

Have you read this book at all? Do you have any thoughts about it?

This book was banned over 7 times last year alone by different school districts across the US. But ironically.. it's because it discusses sexuality and teen dating violence.
