Hard Hitting Women's Fiction

This is a Hard Hitting Women's Fiction book. This book covers a very hot topic, and a topic that there will never be a time that everyone is on the same side. I am not going to say what side I am on, but I am on the side of respecting everyone's right to decide what side they are on. I also think that gun violence is never the right way. This book shows both sides of the topic very well, and it shows what happen when gun violence is used when you are really upset. I loved how this book made you think, and I loved the characters. I loved all the characters back stories. I hated...I really hated that this story was told backwards. I have read books told backwards that worked, but it just did not work in this book. The reasons it did not work is because the time period this book covers is so small, and the characters are in a very small location that you can really tell if one thing moves or changes. Like, One character (not saying names so I do not give anything away) is shot then in the next hour that character is not shot because it is going backwards. I had to keep stopping, and reminding myself this book is going backwards.
