Have you ever been so angry that hitting things felt good? Or so numb that you actually felt high? The past few years have been like that for me. Traveling between fury and indifference with no stops in between.

Some people hate me for it, while others are scared of me. But none of them can hurt me, because I don't care about anything or anyone.

Except Tatum.

I love her so much that I hate her. We used to be friends, but I found out that I couldn't trust her or anyone else.

So I hurt her. I pushed her away.

But I still need her. The sight of her centers me, and I can pool all of my anger into her. Engaging her, challenging her, bullying her...they are my food, my air, and the last part of me that feels anything human.

But she left. She went to France for a year, and came back a different girl.

Now, when I push, she pushes back.

 

WOW!  If I thought Bully was good, this was just epic!  I loved being in Jared's head.  I loved to read about what he was thinking about during those times he was so mean to Tate.  

I got to understand Jared more in Until You.  Since Bully was in Tate's POV, we never get to see what pushed Jared to "hate" Tate so much.  Tate id just awesome.  I love her.  Actually, I think I might have a little crush on her. Hehehe!

I loved the fact that even though it was the same story being told in Jared's POV, there were new scenes we got to live through Jared's eyes and we got a whole new perspective to his way of thinking. I actually didn't like Jared in Bully.  It wasn't until towards the end, where I got to see him in a different light and fell in love with him.  If you loved Bully, you HAVE to read Until You.  I mean, who doesn't want to be in Jared's head?!
