Summary
Zaria is a fifteen year old girl living in a small town trying to find her place in this world’ after a tragic night, when she was only eight years old changed her perception on life. Raped by a family friend; and bullied daily at school prove to be much more than she could bear.


My review
One problem I often have with short stories or novellas is that they fail to tell a full story. It's just hard to do so in only a few pages. However, Chemistry has done a good job portraying the hurt, anger, and betrayal that Zaria feels. 

It was hard to read this book, though, because it switched from first person to third person and back again, often, and even several times within the same paragraph. 

The story still has an excellent message, and will hopefully open eyes to the issue of bullying and how it can devastate a victim.

Trigger warning: Child molestation, rape, suicide
