“The author uses the perspectives of different characters to tell the story of a botched robbery at a fast food restaurant. This is an action packed page-turner! Each character tells the story through his or her eyes and they each react differently to the events of the evening. The story ends with an interesting follow-up, one year later, that tells how the traumatic events affected the lives of the people involved. ”

Yes | No“i didn't think this was a very realistic take on an actual holdup at a fast food restaurant. i liked the idea of using several characters' different points of view to tell the story. however, i have a hard time believing there is a high school student (a senior no less) who would be stupid enough to believe the kind of tall tale that dylan wove for joe in order to get him to help with the robbery. i also find it hard to believe someone would be desperate enough to borrow a truck in order to go on a date with a girl he didn't really know. the two most likable characters (and perhaps most believable) are manuel and mrs. wilkins. sara was completely one dimensional as was alex, so their points of view weren't even necessary as they didn't have anything insightful to add. a quick read, suspenseful enough (as i did have to finish it to find out what happens next) with an okay ending, but for realistic literature on violent crimes among teenagers, i would skip this.”

“an interesting look at what happens when one night goes too far and the tramatic effect robbing a store can have on the victims.”
