review 1: Intense book about bullying and abuse. The author does an excellent job crafting the main character Regina, so that you cannot help but go on her journey with her. I do feel, that is often times in young adult books, that the author makes the parents and the teachers oblivious. With the amount of injuries, you would think that an adult would stand up and take notice. I would recommend this book to both adults and teenagers - for parents, it definitely should be a vehicle for a conversation with your teens about bullying.
review 2: Freaking loved this book- would honestly recommend it to anyone. It reminded me a lot of Mean Girls, but a lot more raw and violent, which worked really well. If I had known Regina in a real life I would have definitely hated her
... moreguts, but it was nice to see what it's like on the other side, what actually goes on in mean girls' heads. I HATED Anna, Kara, Josh, Bruce and Donnie, but especially Kara. Who locks a girl (even if you HATE her) in a room with a guy who tried to rape her?? I was practically crying but the end of the novel, I felt so bad for Regina. I also loved her and Michael together. This definitely isn't a typical chick-flick book, it's packed with emotion and intensity and literally kept me turning the pages until the very end. Great book! less

Fast paced and intriguing, but also so cliche and anticlimactic at the same time.

The premise was meh. But all the bitch fights and high school drama made it work.
