Bitter End
Jennifer Brown
**** stars
Ever since Alex's mother died, she has felt alone and unloved. Her father neglects her and her siblings so Alex tries to take comfort knowing that her two best friends, Zack and Bethany, have her back. Yet, it's still not enough so she hopes that by going to Colorado, the place her mother was trying to go to before she died, everything will make sense. And it seems that Alex's wish of being loved comes true when a new student Cole Cozen becomes her new student that she must tutor in English. She automatically falls in love with him and everything seems to be going perfect until Cole starts expressing his opinion about Alex's best friend Zack and he is always around her. Alex tries to tell Cole that nothing is going on, but he doesn't listen and instead hits her. Alex, confused is trying to understand why Cole would hit her and assumes it's something Zack and her did. But what is she supposed to assume is Cole's reason for hitting her again? Read this painful and agonizing novel in the O'Hara library to see the outcome.
I thought Bitter End was a very sad and emotional book. The main character Alex made me feel so sorry for her and angry the same time. Alex kept trying to understand his violent outbursts towards her and could only come up with an answer that everything was her fault. This book really made me emotional and wanting to understand Alex and her reasoning better and for that I gave it four stars. Jennifer Brown has really created a story that I believe affects many people and will touch many. Definitely think that this would be an amazing book for book club Mrs. Crawford

Good review, I can't wait to read it!
Yeah it sounds interesting
This doesn't really sound interesting to me at all. Too many normal problems in a seemingly boring way.
I will have to check in ont this book for it seems like a good read and i can relate to a few of the characters problems.
