question:
Hi, thank you!
And I think they're all vying for first place on that one lol. Every book, I want to grow and not be bored, so I try to challenge myself. Learn new things, etc. I rewrote Bully 3 times, so that was daunting. Corrupt and Credence had a See Full Answer |

Hi, Samantha!
It's the same story, but the newer paperback editions might have bonus content. It will say on the cover if it includes bonus material. The page count from one edition to the next can vary based on the type of paper the new editions mig See Full Answer |

“I like storms. Thunder torrential rain, puddles, wet shoes. When the clouds roll in, I get filled with this giddy expectation. Everything is more beautiful in the rain. Don't ask me why. But it’s like this whole other realm of opportunity. I used to feel like a superhero, riding my bike over the dangerously slick roads, or maybe an Olympic athlete enduring rough trials to make it to the finish line. On sunny days, as a girl, I could still wake up to that thrilled feeling. You made me giddy with expectation, just like a symphonic rainstorm. You were a tempest in the sun, the thunder in a boring, cloudless sky. I remember I’d shovel in my breakfast as fast as I could, so I could go knock on your door. We’d play all day, only coming back for food and sleep. We played hide and seek, you’d push me on the swing, or we’d climb trees. Being your sidekick gave me a sense of home again. You see, when I was ten, my mom died. She had cancer, and I lost her before I really knew her. My world felt so insecure, and I was scared. You were the person that turned things right again. With you, I became courageous and free. It was like the part of me that died with my mom came back when I met you, and I didn’t hurt if I knew I had you. Then one day, out of the blue, I lost you, too. The hurt returned, and I felt sick when I saw you hating me. My rainstorm was gone, and you became cruel. There was no explanation. You were just gone. And my heart was ripped open. I missed you. I missed my mom. What was worse than losing you, was when you started to hurt me. Your words and actions made me hate coming to school. They made me uncomfortable in my own home. Everything still hurts, but I know none of it is my fault. There are a lot of words that I could use to describe you, but the only one that includes sad, angry, miserable, and pitiful is “coward.” I a year, I’ll be gone, and you’ll be nothing but some washout whose height of existence was in high school. You were my tempest, my thunder cloud, my tree in the downpour. I loved all those things, and I loved you. But now? You’re a fucking drought. I thought that all the assholes drove German cars, but it turns out that pricks in Mustangs can still leave scars.”

I LOVED BULLY! I've been bully when i was in High School, the bully is also an 'old friend' of mine so I really know the feeling of Tate when it comes to Jared. :) I can't wait for Madoc's story! :)
AMAZING! Thank you so much for taking me out of reading slump. ....BULLY had all the elements i love so much in a great YA-NA novel. GREAT plot and writing, GREAT multidimensional characters- Tate was a kick ass heroine, and Jared, OH Jared, in spite of it all I LOVED him, and I knew I would even at the onset...The chemistry between Tate and Jared was soooo good. SO excited to read more about Madoc!!!!
Dear Penelope,
Thank you so much for accepting my friend request!! OMG!!
I'm still amazed by your book... really!! Definitly one of the bests i've ever read in all my life!! Such a beautiful story... and so well written.
I've tried make a review... but you know in my opinion anything would make justice to a amazing story like this!
BEAUTIFUL PENELOPE! :D

You are amazing. Bully has shattered my heart and changed my world. Honestly THE BEST Fing book I've ever read. I will be thinking about this book till the end of time. I'll be re reading it forever and I will tell everyone about it. Thank you for writing it. My review doesn't even do justice.
