{"product_id":"violent-ends-9781481437462","title":"Violent Ends","description":"In a one-of-a-kind collaboration, seventeen of the most recognizable YA writers--including Shaun David Hutchinson, Neal and Brendan Shusterman, and Beth Revis--come together to share the viewpoints of a group of students affected by a school shooting. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car, march onto the school grounds, enter the gymnasium, and open fire, killing six and injuring five others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this isn't a story about the shooting itself. This isn't about recounting that one unforgettable day. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is about one boy--who had friends, enjoyed reading, playing saxophone in the band, and had never been in trouble before--became a monster capable of entering his school with a loaded gun and firing bullets at his classmates. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach chapter is told from a different victim's viewpoint, giving insight into who Kirby was and who he'd become. Some are sweet, some are dark; some are seemingly unrelated, about fights or first kisses or late-night parties. This is a book told from multiple perspectives--with one character and one event drawing them all together--by some of YA's most recognizable names.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Pulse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781481437462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e182402 \/ Violent Ends\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.8 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 13\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Shaun David Hutchinson, Neal Shusterman, Brendan Shusterman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36652980338844,"sku":"9781481437462","price":9.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_33c3774f-f1e8-473b-a126-b7558601c825.jpg?v=1603880836","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/violent-ends-9781481437462","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
