Rachel's Tears [BOOK] - EvBoard

ironica111 · 10-10-2005, 03:45 PM

I was wondering if anyone else has read this book and if so what did you think about it. I’m not done with it yet, but so far, I have a kind of mixed reaction too it. A lot of it has made me really sad and I do admire Rachel’s writings. There is just somthing I don't like about the book...I don’t really know how to describe it.

It's about the girl Rachel from Columbine. I've never read it but I have looked it up on AMAZON.

It's probably a really good book if you are interested in hearing her story.

It’s about a girl who died in the columbine shooting. It’s a book her parents wrote and it has poems drawings from her journal in it. It’s mostly about her spiritual life.

I absolutely LOVED this book. IMO, it was very inspirational and eyeopening. I guess it wouldn't be as interesting if you don't believe in God the way Rachel did, but I would still definitely reccommend it. I like how it gives insight into the real human lives affected by tradgedy. Sometimes it's so easy to feel removed from what's happening around the world, but stories like this help put things into perspective. Also, it's very honest and real, which is a nice escape from so many things today.
