Butter


Butter



Butter by Erin Jade Lange was an excellent book.  It was well written and I couldn't put it down.  "Butter" is a lonely boy who announces via social media that he is going to eat himself to death while everybody watches live on his blog.  He expects that people will pity him and continue to ignore him as they have his whole life.  Instead he becomes part of the popular group and he has to decide if he will truly go through with his plan of killing himself with food.

The author does a great job of showing both sides of the story. Readers can identify with Butter, but they also get a chance to see how bullies manipulate their prey.

This book is definitely worth reading.
