Bully REVIEW (Fall away #1) REVIEW +

Bully (Fall Away, #1)By Penelope Douglas
Pages: 290

My name is Tate. He doesn't call me that, though. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all.

We're neighbors, and once, we were best friends. But then, one summer, he turned on me and has made it his mission to screw up my life at every opportunity. I've been humiliated, shut out, and gossiped about all through high school. His pranks and rumors got more sadistic as time wore on, and I made myself sick trying to hide from him. I worried about what was around every corner and behind every door. 

So I left.

I spent a year studying abroad and bathed in the freedom of life without Jared. Now I'm back to finish up high school and get the hell out of here forever. I'm hoping that after a year of breathing room, he's moved on and forgotten all about me. 

But even if he hasn't changed, I have. I'm not interested in avoiding him or turning the other cheek anymore. We're going to go head to head, because neither of us wants to back down

By the freaking angel what a irritating main character!!!!
I can't even remember her name for all the money in the world,  ugh I hated her a bit more every time I turned a page.
This book is called Bully.
Bully is when someone makes your life a living hell, you are scared of what this person's next move will be.
People don't fall in love with their bully, they are not supposed to see all the things the bully did not do. Like "he never touched me"
What the f?
Are you serious? Tell me you are kidding PLEASE .
*SPOILER ALERT DON'T READ BEYOND THIS POINT IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THIS BOOK, HOWEVER I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS BOOK*
And then we have her "friend" K.C
Correct me if im wrong, but shouldn't friends be on your side?
Should friends go and hook up with the guy who have made your life a hell?
Jesus, Bullying is a serious thing, it's a heavy subject a lot of people go through and in my opinion this book handles the whole thing in such a ignorant way. I've been bullied and it felt like the book was laughing up my face. Like being bullied is not that bad. Bullshit.
I read 150 pages, but could not finish it.
I am utterly, truly disappointed.
1/5

UPDATE
I wrote this review yesterday and checked goodreads to get the synopsis. This book has 4,25/5 on GR.
And people keep talking about the end. 
As much as I hate this book im thinking, maybe I should finish it. If I ever do and change my opinion I'll write another review. 
until then
