19 Minutes by Jodi Picoult

The circumstances surrounding a school shooting. Alternating chapters of past and present. 1st person perspective changes from character to character within each chapter. I read reviews and an excerpt from this book before it hit the stores and picked it up the weekend after its release. My anticipation was rewarded with a book that held my attention and wouldn't let me go. The author lists the different parents, teachers, students, admin, and legal people she interviewed surrounding different school shootings in the country.
