I unfortunately could not get into this book as much as I wanted. The premise of the book was very promising but unfortunately, it just did not deliver in the end.

This was a shame because I was enjoying the first couple of chapters. After that it went downhill fast. I would not read this book again.

Corby Mackentile is a 15-year old girl who is bullied in school, regularly, because of her weight.
Academically brilliant, but stuck in a family where her ever-quarrelling parents don’t seem to have time for her, Corby spends most of her free time in the evenings, in her dad’s butcher shop.
The bullying takes a turn for the worse, with every passing day. One day, one of the coolest boys in class, Jacob, adds his comments to the list. He later apologises.
This doesn’t bode well with his female fan-following and Corby’s tormentors, Jane, Sylvia and Vera, who use this as an excuse to bully her more.

Vera comes to pick up an order for her mother, at her dad’s shop, one evening - and a nasty accident happens, which changes Corby’s life course forever.

Till here, the premise looked good and seemed interesting.
After this, the storyline took a dip.
The narration also seemed a wee bit erratic at places.

I understand psychiatric issues that can stem from bullying, but this could have been dealt with and expressed a little better.
The intent was there - but just not executed well enough in my opinion.

It is worth a one-time read.
And is generally moderately paced.

I loved this book ! From the very beginning to the very end I couldn’t stop reading and was drying to know what would happen !!! The ending literally had me screaming NO WAY ! I fell in love with Corby and Jacob, the entire Bonnie and Clyde story captures you and doesn’t let go ! This is a must read for any fan of murder mystery, the suspense will keep you up at night !
