19 Minutes. It's on the New York Times Bestseller list. Number 1 I think. I read it. Good book. She really goes into detail and you honestly start to question everything. Your own thoughts and morals. You question why people are allowed to treat others this way. It's a good read but you really have to be in the right mindset to read it.

With that being said, right now would probably not be the best time. In her story, the shooter survives and she goes into detail of the torment the person put up with. As a person it horrified me and as a teacher I was beyond appalled. And it was a book!

But I highly recommend it. Awesome book.[/end mini-hijack]
