Valerie is now in the hospital and has come to realization that what she thought was a bad dream at Garvin High had become a reality. Nick was dead from suicide, Christy survived and in a room down the hall and to top it all off her childhood bff Stacey now resents her. It makes you wonder what more is to come and can it get any worse???
This novel gets more intriguing as we get further into part two but also leaves me with a few questions as well. It seems like everyone is passing judgement on Valerie and assuming the worst instead of trying to find out what really happened and at least give her a chance to speak her side and possibly clear the air. She has her own demons to fight dealing with being a person of interest and a victim as well and for her to feel like she has noone in her corner to back her up or support her just adds to the stress and issues she is already dealing with.
Would you give Valerie a chance to tell her side? If so,would you believe her knowing she had a part in creating this so called Hate List and how close knit her and Nick were? And last but not least If Valerie was your friend would you forgive her for what happened even though she wasn't the one who pulled the trigger?
In my opinion it seems that many people aren't considering the fact that Val has been through trauma and all they want are answers and someone to pay the price for what has happened. Do you think that someone should step up and at least speak up in Vals defense or at least support her through her time of grief and recovery?
My most important question of all is Why didn't Nick warn or tell Valerie that he planned to carry out their so called Hate List??? I really look foward to reading further into the chapters and see what twists and turns is yet to come.
I agree. I think Valerie is definitely being treated as if she is completely guilty. It frustrates me that all the circumstantial evidence points directly to her, yet we know her real story! I think it's very believable.
