Reconstructing Amelia

A heartbreaking, "adult for young adult" book.  Maybe I'm naive, but I really didn't think bullying was this out of control.  I guess I am wrong:{  In this new book, Kate, a lawyer, receives a call from daughter Amelia's exclusive private school. Apparently Amelia, an excellent student plagiarized an English paper.  By the time Kate gets to school, she finds out Amelia has committed suicide and jumped off the roof of the school building.  An investigation leads to cyberbullying and hazing accusations.  Did Amelia committ suicide or not?  You'll have to read the book.....I hope it makes people think about how they treat others.
