Gray Zone is about a girl named Autumn. She has been constantly bullied and cyberbullied by her classmates, including having private information about her made public. Due to this bullying, her parents have decided to transfer her to a different school. Willing to make the best of her current situation, she has decided to be an outgoing, popular girl and no longer be the shy girl she used to be. However, even though she plans to become popular, her old habits seem to get the best of her. She then finds out that her best friend, Sophie, will be transferring to her new school. Now that Sophie has transferred, she is keeping her distance from Autumn. Autumn doesn't understand why Sophie is acting aloof. She is no longer sad and depressed; she’s furious. She plans on stopping the bullying and everything that is making her life miserable.

Opinion: 

I really enjoyed Gray Zone; it showed the effects of bullying on students and the factors that can lead to it. The book gave the reader many reasons to stand up for others who are being bullied. It showed how difficult life can be for those experiencing cyberbullying. I recommend that readers interested in the impact of bullying or anyone experiencing bullying themselves read this book. 
 
I appreciated the story’s message of strength for those experiencing bullying.
