Lessons from a Dead Girl by Jo Knowles was a compelling read. The story follows a girl named Laine as she looks back on all the "lessons" her now-deceased "friend", Leah, had taught her. AS young girls, Leah would take Laine into a closet and "play" with her. After their playtime, Leah would often verbally bully Laine and often make remarks about how Laine liked what they did. Eventually, Laine had enough of Leah and even when Leah and Laine had grown apart, Leah continued to torment Laine. This book was really an eye-opener and shows just how destructive some friends can be.
