Jade | 10 comments I think I read this in a book of YA stories, the cover looked like a loose leaf sheet of paper. This would have been read in the mid-to-late 80s. One story surrounded a girl who was going to school. All students had to wear a full face mask, like a uniform. Girl climbs to tower and snipes others at the school, and then falls/jumps from tower. Mask cracked off, face is now in the shape of the mask. That's all I remember. Help me.

Do you remember if they were by the same author or different authors?

Jade | 10 comments Hey I found my story. It is called "The Girl" by Christine Pasanen, and it was in a book called Shadows in the Light (Selections From Scholastic Writing Awards) edited by Betty Owens. I can't find it here on Goodreads (Pub. 1979) but scooped a copy up from Ebay.
