A fascinating look at the aftermath of a (fictional) high school shooting. This isn't Coupland's normal territory, but he captures the voices beautifully.

This is a really well written novel, with great perspective and amazing depth of character. It is both beautiful and tragic at the same time, and leaves the reader with a sense of loss at the conclusion that three days later I still can't shake.

If you like writing that grabs you and absolutely can put you in the emotional scenes of the characters, this is the one for you!

I loved it and cried in the book as I witnessed the challenges of raising children and still trying so hard. These children can be hard and are full of mischief and very non-predictive.

This is a great read, I would give it five stars easy. Coupland never writes less than five and this is better than his best!

Not Coupland's best book, but I did enjoy it.
