{"product_id":"violent-ends-paperback","title":"Violent Ends - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn a one-of-a-kind collaboration, seventeen of the most recognizable YA writers--including Shaun David Hutchinson, Neal and Brendan Shusterman, and Beth Revis--come together to share the viewpoints of a group of students affected by a school shooting.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car, march onto the school grounds, enter the gymnasium, and open fire, killing six and injuring five others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this isn't a story about the shooting itself. This isn't about recounting that one unforgettable day. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is about one boy--who had friends, enjoyed reading, playing saxophone in the band, and had never been in trouble before--became a monster capable of entering his school with a loaded gun and firing bullets at his classmates. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach chapter is told from a different victim's viewpoint, giving insight into who Kirby was and who he'd become. Some are sweet, some are dark; some are seemingly unrelated, about fights or first kisses or late-night parties. This is a book told from multiple perspectives--with one character and one event drawing them all together--by some of YA's most recognizable names.","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50417640800479,"sku":"9781481437462","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/x9YOSrCj7L9781481437462.webp?v=1782150892","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/violent-ends-paperback","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
