__ Description __
====This book is about two horrific teenage boys, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, that go on a mass murder killing spree. The twist is.... that it happens at their highschool and the people that they are killing... are their friends. <-Before- -During-> Comitting and even planning this grusome crime changed then drastically.==== ==== __Main Characters__ Eric was sort of a nerd, but most of the other students considered him to be cool. He smoked, drank, and was invited to all the parties. He got almost any girl he wanted. They say it was because of his dimples, disarming smile, humor, and quick wit. He had prominent features, hollowed out underneath, and proportionate features. He only had one problem. He had a long and pointy nose. This exaggerated a sloping forehead and a weak chin. He wore spiky hair because he believed that it elongated his profile. He thought this was an important fact because he was five foot and nine inches, and all of his friends were well over six foot. Dylan on the other hand had some trouble. He was smart, but shy and self-conscious. He also wasen't as good with the ladies with Eric. Eric ws strait foward and Dylan..... he passed chips ahoy chocolate chip cookies in class to the girls he liked. He was starting to grow a beard, but unfortunatly..... it came in little blotches. Although he was proud of it, a shave would've looked better. He was six foot three, 143 pounds, and had long ratty curls that went to his shoulders. ==== ==== __ Friends __ They didn't have many friends each, but the ones they did have were the same. One of their friends was Rachael Scott. Eric and her were very close. He even saved her at a talent show one time when her tape got jammed, and on one of the following days... Eric would kill her. Another friend of theirs was Robyn Anderson. She was Dylan's prom date. Robyn had long blond hair that she ocasionally curled into ringlets. She was one of the lucky survivors that watched the whole thing from the school paking lot. Nate Dykeman was another mutual friend of the two. He had been friends with them for years. Dylan's parents thought of him as one of their children.==== ====Out of the books we have read in class, i think the characters in this book would best get along with Peter. Eric and Dylan are both social, but they keep to themselves at the same time. Most of the kids at their school would consider then popular. This is because they always had friends to hang out with. Whether they were "popular" friends or not.====

==== __Hobbies__ The main characters in this book shared common interests and hobbies. For example, they both worked at Blackjack Pizza. They both also enjoyed shooting bottle rockets over the strip mall with their co-worker Robert Kirgis. Even though they were best friends, they had seperate interests. One of Dylan's interests was baseball. Some people even believed that baseball was his life. Eric on the other hand wasen't really interested in sports. He found gambling and alcohol to be more interesting. He often capatilized his initals in his favorite drinks. An example would be voDKa. __ Education __ Both Dylan and Eric were seniors at Columbine High School in Jefferson County, Colorado. Both of them were considered smart to the average student at Columbine. Whenever a question was asked they always had their hands up with the right answer. Dylan had plans for colleges, future jobs, and even preferred areas to live in after graduating. Eric on the other hand.... was "living in the moment". He pretended to have an interest in the Army because his dad was angry that he had no plans for the future. But..... none of that mattered because neither of them had even planned on being alive for graduation.====
