When I started reading the book "The Bully" by Racheal Hoffman, I was instantly drawn into the pages as if I were watching a movie. I at first felt sympathy for Samantha, the lead character of the book, as she was being bullied by her peers at school. Reading that she was also living in a world of domestic abuse at the hands of her father drew me to feel sorry for her even more. It's an overjoying feeling to see a victim become a victor. Sometimes however, being the victor can be quite opposite of how we feel it should be.Through the twists that this book has, the reader will be drawn into a web of deceit so dark that it will take them by complete surprise. Samantha evolves in ways that are completely unexpected for someone who has been through the things she has been through. She makes friends and becomes very close to one girl in particular.This book really shows you that sometimes you need to be super careful when you choose your friends. You never know who they may truly be, or what they are capable of doing. I look forward to reading more from author Racheal Hoffman. If you enjoy a good thriller, this is an amazing book to read!
