Weightless: A Novel | 
pickA riveting read. Bannan did a unique job in creating a voice of a group of girls who hide behind the narrative..acting as onlookers..whether they comment in hindsight or just stood by, did nothing to intervene the events, the narrative gives an eerie feeling. The depiction of high school cliques and bullying with help from social media is so real. A haunting, difficult read.

The blurb sounds like a typical book about high school dramas, but I‘m surprised I‘m liking it more than I expected. The writing is so different from any YA books I‘ve read. Maybe it‘s because the story is told from the perspective of a group of unnamed teenagers - a first person plural narrative- observing things going on, giving commentary with an air of uncertainty. Can‘t believe this is the author‘s debut..well written.

pickPowerful and timely book at bullying in high school. It‘s a great read. Both highly entertaining and provocative.
pickIf you like dark high school stories you'll like this. Depressingly accurate about teen bullying and really powerful in evoking a small town, no outsiders here atmosphere. I have no idea if parts of the US are really like this, but the description of lemming like behaviour and power in the hands of the few was pretty scary. Not without fault but I really enjoyed it. Read on the train to Trieste.

I don‘t have any beautiful Folio editions (😍) but I love these covers for I find them beautiful in their own ways. 😊
