This book I'm reading might be the most interesting book i have read.I just started reading it so i didn't get that far.The book is about this little boy that had black hair,blue eyes and wears glass. Throughout his whole childhood he has been made fun of and he had only one friend that was there for him in kinder garden.They were naibors and their mums were best friends.One day the his best friend came and they went in the attic and found a gun.The kids were playing with it thinking  it was a toy gun.Their mums got worried so they went down in the attic an saw them holding a gun.The girls mum got really mad and stopped having any contact with the boy and his family.In the middle school he got bullied by the same kids from kindergarden.Now, he is in hight school and he was hoping to meet new people and finally have friends but the same bullies turn up in hight school.not only do the bullies turn up in the hight school so does the only friend he had.They become best friends again but his best friend starts dating the main bully.He gets tourchured and one day he decides that he wants to kill all of them and goes into the school with a gun.Kills one of the bullies and some got injured.Now his with his best friends and the bully.....

I think that the book carried the name 19minutes because it all might have happened in 19 minutes.
On the beginning i think its important that the author gave a description because maybe his "pure blue eyes,that look so naive like they have never seen vain,angry and mean people,that was maybe because he was bullied.", will turn red or black or people will see something evil in his eyes.
The book is like a movie, it goes from the present to the past and than again back to the present.Its maybe even better than some movie.
I love the way the author gives descriptions and I like the topic his righting on because i think that people aren't even aware that it can affect other people them saying something or doing something.This poor little boy explodes after 17 years of bullying.
Its a fresh topic that everyone talks about and that happens every day.
