This book is by the mother of Dylan Klebold, one of the shooters at Columbine High School. I always say that people often overlook the families of perpetrators of these types of crimes. This book gives an insight onto the other side of a tragedy like this. People always want to make comments about how it must have been the upbringing of a person to cause them to do the horrible things they do, and it isn't always that simple. I feel terrible for Sue Klebold. I cannot imagine being in her position and losing my child, and then realizing that they had done these terrible things. I cannot imagine having to field reporters and tv crews and endure all of the negative and speculative things that people would say. How hard it must be to work through grief under these circumstances! I really appreciated this honest and candid look into the other side of this well publicized tragedy.
