The Tragedy Paper is set in elite Irving School and centers around two 17-year-old boys: Duncan and Tim, an albino. Beautifully narrated trough two very different points of view, Elizabeth LaBan shows us what are young adults capable of doing to be accepted. "A tragedy is a play or literary work in ...
The Tragedy Paper by Elizabeth LaBan is one of those book that readers everywhere need to read and experience. A story within a story that comes full circle in the end, and I loved every minute of it.I loved the unique way in which this story was told. It’s told in the point of view of two charac...
I got a little bored while reading this. The story was ok, but I wasn't very interested in the outcome.When I skimmed over the book again, there were several sentences that seemed very similar to sentences I've read in other books.... just can't think what books, which is driving me a little crazy.
I can't even tell you how much I loved this book. Without a doubt it's in the top 10 books for 2013. I was so emotionally invested in the characters and the story. The writing is amazing, there is so much emotion throughout! There were tears a few times as well. It's just THAT good. I highly recomme...

You hear the story from two points of views, Duncan, and Tim who has recorded his story on the cd’s. It is ...
First of all, I have to comment on how "clean" this book is. There's no swearing, no sex, no law breaking. Well, no major law breaking, anyway. It was refreshing to read a book that is free from all of that but still feels authentic and honest. I think too many times authors try to write teens w...
The Tragedy is a thoughtful book that reminded me of A Separate Peace -- or, as Bookshelves of Doom rightly points out -- Ethan Frome. I loved Tim, the main character, but thought the narrative device of having Tim's story told through CDs that were played by yet another character, Duncan, distanced...
