Hate it or love it - this book screams for a strong reaction ; be it positive or negative. It is definitely a worthy pick for this year's Canada Reads, 'one book to break barriers'. Heartbreaking, funny and brutally told, this book addresses the all too real issue of bullying in schools and the targets of the bullying being any kids that do not fit the social 'norm' of the day. My heart went out to Jude/Judy and I found myself holding my breath a few times whilst reading this book, as if by doing so I could prevent the course of the story.
