Last night I finished One Breath Away by Heather Gudenkauf. I have really enjoyed her other books and I liked this one as well. It's the story of a gunman in a school during the middle of a snow storm the day before spring break. It's broken out as each chapter being from a different person's point of view, so we learn a lot about the characters this way. One character was a child in the school looking for her brother, one was the grandpa, one was the mother, and one was the police officer.
I felt that I really liked learning about the characters, with the exception of Holly (the mom) I really liked them. The story seemed to have some suspense as we didn't know who the gunman was until the very end. There were lots of twists to get you to guess who it was, but it wasn't until the police finally were going in that I could guess who it was.
At times it was a little cheesy, but overall it was a good read. I definitely like Gudenkauf's writing.
