Kyle is a regular guy. He used to get good grades and have good friends. Now he goes to a different school, has harder friends, and he can’t seem to explain all of the blood. As he thinks back over the things he had no control over and the bad choices he made he tries to piece together where it all went wrong.
The story is good, and the way it’s told (starting with the end and working backwards) is interesting. This is a realistic look at the way things can go wrong for “good” kids with just a few bad choices. The book was good, but I found myself comparing it to another recently published book that is much better. The Knife That Killed Me by Anthony McGowan takes the story just a little further. It goes a little deeper and has a character that the reader can identify with a little more readily. Both stories are good, but if you only have time to read one read The Knife That Killed Me.
