HATE LIST
The main character, Valerie, in the book called Hate List is faced with a very difficult situation in the book. Valerie has to make the decision if she should go back to school and face her fears and classmates head on or if she should transfer to another school and start life a new. The school board was trying to make the decision if she should even be let back into the school. I think that she should be aloud back into Garmin High School because she only shot someone because she was trying to save further harm from happening. Her boyfriend Nick was the one who decided to take the list a little too seriously and tried shooting everyone on the list. After he accidentally shot Valerie he took the gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Technically she was only involved in making the list. She was not really involved into the shooting so to speak. I think she should go back to the school and face her fears head on also. Word of the shooting would spread to different schools and if she transferred to another school it would be twice as hard making new friends than keeping the friends she still has at Garmin.

Good start into the blogging community, Chris! Now, as you continue with your blogs, avoid the temptation to summarize. I love your observations about Valerie's situation. So, what do you think about Valerie's decision to return to school? Would you have done the same?
