![]() This would have helped the pacing a bit and I think it would have given Crutcher more time to give information into the crime. (I do wish that this suspense had been spread out to 50% of the book. It is a hold your breath, read as quickly as you can kind of book there at the end. And this one is SO full of suspense for the last 25%. My Review : Now, this is not a “normal” Chris Crutcher book, but like all of his books, it is raw, true, and sports plays a role of some sort. ![]() Terrifying, thought-provoking, and original, this novel combines all the qualities of a great thriller with the controversy, ethics, and raw emotion of a classic Crutcher story. ![]() Only what Paulie and Hannah (his ex-girlfriend, unfortunately) and his other classmates don’t know is that the ultimate bully, the ultimate liar, is in their midst. Period 8 is supposed to be that one period in high school where the truth can shine, a safe haven. ![]() And as Paulie discovers, finding the truth can be even more problematic. But telling the truth can cause problems, and not minor ones. It was something he learned at Sunday School. Goodreads Summary: In this full-length novel from Chris Crutcher, his first since the best-selling Deadline, the ultimate bully and the ultimate good guy tangle during Period 8. Published March 26th, 2013 by Harper Collins ![]()
