This book was interesting it gave information of how, why and different levels of Self-Mutilation that students could get into. It explains some reasons people choose to self mutilate, and even gives famous people who have self mutilated. Both were completely unknown to me that they even did it. It was very insightful and helpful to understand a different world of knowledge that I did not know about before. It is a little concerning that kids could find this book in our high school library at some level since it tells how people do it as well as why. If someone was wanting to hurt themselves in this way it would give them the information on how to do it as well as why and what they can do to get help. The book was informative and allows you to broaden your knowledge if someone you know had signs that they might cut themselves.
