Synopsis
How quickly can you be demoted from the most popular girl in the class to a social loser, excluded and frowned upon by everyone?
In the bat of an eye, Stella learns, when she falls out with her best friend, Amalie. In no time, Amalie makes the whole class turn against Stella and she stops at nothing: Facebook-harassment, sms threats and grotesque YouTube clips. Stella is defenceless and can do nothing but watch as her hate page gets more and more likes and Amalie’s attacks get more vicious by the minute. A consolation is Filippa, who is the only one in class who stays in touch with Stella, but how useful is a friend who does not dare to see you when others are looking?
Stella feels herself slowly dying inside. Making music, which meant everything to her before, no longer soothes her and the few people she still trusts are disappearing, one after the other. So what’s left fighting for? Nothing! All there is left is to chose one of the 21 ways she has listed. 21 ways to die…

"It needs to be spelt out in maximum capital letters that Sarah Engell has written the best YA novel of the century" – (Folkeskolen (Industry magazine for schools))
