ashley_dang096 's review for:
Upstander
by James Preller
A girl stuck in various situations, having to decide what to do. Mary is dealing with taking care of her 19 year old drug addicted brother and facing the decision of whether or not to bully one of her friends. Mary’s brother is getting worse and worse and Mary can’t help but hate to love him. In her friend group, two of the girls decide to bully one of the other girls and Mary is stuck with deciding to tell the other girl or just letting it happen and not doing anything. The story deals with bullying, dealing with a family member who has an addiction, and figuring out what is right and wrong. The story is a stand alone companion to the book Bystander and features the main character of that book (Eric) in this one and also the bully in that boo ( Griffin) in this one. Overall it was a quick read and it deals with a lot of complicated issues.
