eBully is a very quick read; I read this book in one day. It's a great book, that I very quickly got sucked into. I felt for the main character & her pain, and often relived my own, painful, tormented childhood, and wondered what anguish I might have gone through if I was a teenager today, instead of in the late 80's/early 90's, before anyone had heard of this thing called an internet. I admit, I didn't know who the eBully was until 3/4ths of the way through the book, which was wonderful because usually I figure out the "mystery" way too quickly (both in books & movies, which is why I don't often read mysteries). The heartbreak that everyone feels when the ebully is discovered & they realize that the person won't be punished felt very believable & real to me. And then there's a wonderful twist at the end that I absolutely HATED, but it's that you-love-to-hate-it vibe. And I hated how the book ended, but it worked so incredibly well, and was very well written.

The only reason why I gave this book four stars, instead of five, was I felt a few things were a little bit of a stretch of the imagination. I can't really see teenage boys acting quite as mature as they are portrayed in the book, not to mention what are the odds that all of these seeming coincidences that happen, all would really happen in such a manner? (I know, I'm very vague, but I'm trying not to give spoilers because the book is really excellent, but if I explained what I meant, I would completely ruin the book).

Great book, one definitely worth reading & discussing.
