Review Quote "This Is Where It Ends is simultaneously heart pounding and heart wrenching. Every word hits frighteningly close to home and is tragically too familiar. This book will leave you asking questions that we as a society should have answered a long time ago." -- Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin? "As long as there are Newtowns and Columbines there will be a desperate need for gripping, well-written, and poignant novels like this one. We are the most gun-violent country in the world, and yet little has been done to stop these rampage killings. Manypeople have become numb to the news that yet another child, or family, or congregant, has been murdered. Hopefully a book like This Is Where It Ends will make the problem more real to a generation that still has the time, energy, and willpower to do something about it." -- Todd Strasser, award-winning author of Give a Boy a Gun and Fallout "Stunning, diverse, and unforgettable, This Is Where It Ends is a book everyone should read to better understand each other and the world around us." -- Robin Talley, author ofLies We Tell Ourselves Details ISBN1492671118 Author Marieke Nijkamp Publisher Sourcebooks, Inc Year 2019 ISBN-10 1492671118 ISBN-13 9781492671114 Format Paperback Subtitle International Edition Country of Publication United States DEWEY FIC Language English Audience Age 14-18 Pages 336 Imprint Sourcebooks Fire Publication Date 2019-06-07 AU Release Date 2019-06-07 NZ Release Date 2019-06-07 US Release Date 2019-06-07 UK Release Date 2019-06-07 Alternative 9781492622468 Audience Teenage / Young adult We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
