Summary
This novel is about Valerie. When this new boy came to school Valerie and Nick were in the same class and they both talked about how they HATE school and homework and the teacher. So they made a list of what they hate. Valerie and Nick started to date and this list became longer and longer everyday. Valerie and Nick always talked about how they wish those people/things didn't exist anymore. So one day Nick came to school and did something very unexpected. Because of this incident, Valerie stayed in her bed for about 3-4 months and she didn't do anything. Finally Valerie is going back to school and wow people can be mean.
About the Author
Jennifer Brown was born in Kansas City, Missouri on January 1st 1972.Today Jen still lives in Kansas City Missouri with her husband and her three children. Jennifer writes young adult books such as Bitter End, Perfect Escape, Thousand Words and Torn Away. She just finished writing her first middle school aged book called Life on Mars. In 2005 and 2006, Jennifer was the two-time winner of the Erma Bombeck Global Humor Award.
Shailene Woodley as Valerie
I would chose Shailene as Valerie because she is a very strong actress. In the Divergent movies, she is very good at showing pain and Valerie has a lot of pain in this book. I feel like Shailene would show the audience true emotions and would connect with the audience on how Valerie is feeling.
Dylan O' Brien as Nick
I would chose Dylan as Nick because Nick is a very quiet person and he like to think to himself. Nick also shows that he can be a real jerk when he wants to be one. In other movies, Dylan has showed he can be a jerk at times but he can also be very caring and very quiet.
Jennifer Lawrence as Chirsty Bruter
Jennifer Lawrence in known for her role in "The Hunger Games". In my book, Hate List, Chirsty Bruter is a mean, tough softball player, Jennifer is a tough actress and I think that she would be able to kick someone's butt if needed.

Final Reflection
Hate List is a very well-written and a very good book. It shows how people that even though you think you know someone, they can/will surprise you. This book has taught me that things will always get better you just need to try your hardest and believe in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself things might take a turn for the worst. Overall I suggest that you read this book and know things can get better.
