I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to The Bookbag.
Further reading suggestion: There are too many echoes of [[The Lovely Bones by Alkice Alice Sebold|The Lovely Bones]] here to omit it as a recommendation. It is not a copycat by any means, but both books deal with terrible things happening to a young teenage girl and the effects on people around her. And for another story about sweet and silly youth getting itself into a dreadful situation, and thereby destroying the lives and happiness of others, try [[Fallout by Sandra Glover]].
