What, in your opinion, makes your author a good (or poor!) writer?
The author is a really really good writer, I will never think different! I see her writing very good books for others ages. Like this book was make for high school kids, and adults.
Not for yonger kids.
But i can see her making books for babies, and little kids.

The problem of this book, is that EVERYONE is a lie, & cheaters.

Predict what you think will happen next.

Part C*

1 What are the scenes, incidents or moments which you remember most vividly?
Pretty much the whole story is when this person did this or that person did that. Why do people always get cheated on? I really dont understand why!?

2 Can you identify any important theme or idea with which the novel deals? Do the problems or issues get resolved or are they simply explored?
There are almost of problems in this book, first Robins dad's new girlfriend/wife cheated on him, with the boy next door.
And plenty more cheating,fight etc.

3 Did you learn anything from the story that you did not know before? Explain (this could be facts or simply seeing something from a different perspective?)
That cheating is the worst thing you could probably do. Lieing, back talking to people/parents.

4 Does the novel interest you, irritate you or both? Explain
It interest me alot. I really do like this book, it's very interesting with everything everyone talks about in the story.

5 If you could be any character in the novel, who would you be? Why that character?
I dont think i wanna be any of them, cause they are all cheaters and lies, besides Robin the daughter. Maybe i want to be her, but thinking about it, not really.
She has a crush on the boy next door, and the way he sounds in the book makes me think hes a pretty boy.

6 Would you like to read more books from the same author? Why?
Yes! The author of this book is great! Everything in this book is right in there, all about teenagers and pretty much what some of them are like.

7 Explain why the novel did or did not end the way you had hoped it would.
They boy next door, ditches out on the dad's girlfriend/wife, and tells Robin that " your dad can have her" but they father doesnt want Janice back! Cause shes nothing but a cheater!

8 Can you imagine yourself reading the novel again in 10 years? Would you suggest it to a friend? Explain.
Yes! actually my friend told me this is a great book, at first when i look at this cover it didnt look like a great book, until ... i finally started reading it more, and more each day in class.
And it's a really good book, i think i will be giving it to a friend to read.

Summer Holidays

This summer, I want to travel to Orlando with my mom and dad. so we can go see my Aunt
in her new nursing home. I would love to go see the Sea World, where you can get to see all types of fish. I even want to see the actual ocean, and let my brother meet a shark (that's a joke!!!) It better be a very great summer vacation anyone could hope to have, ever. I want to be able to swim in the water and make sand castles. There are alot of friendly dolphins at Sea World. I started to read and learn that ocean water gets foamy and red when you put blood in it. So that means that the shark will come faster for you.
