The author believes to "keep your family close in your heart". I say this because before everyone evacuated Maddie wanted to leave her chaos house so bad she lied to her parents. Karma came back to her and while she was alone she realized how much her family meant to her. When she went in neighbors houses to look for supplies she found picture of a student at her school who passed away and she felt really bad for the family.

This book is so easy to read and very enjoyable. It is novel-in-verse and has 402 pages. I loved this book. It has so many twists and turns and is very mysterious. One thing I would ask the Author is did Maddies friends not come to the sleepover because of the reason they told her or is there another reason. I would also ask how she came up with the idea for Alone.

"I find a spiral notebook and a pen and write a letter to God instead."

I like this quote in the book and think it is very significant because in life we can't do it on our own. I can't imagine was Maddie felt. Her getting this pen and paper reminds me to turn to God in times of trouble.

1 Peter 5:7

"7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."

"Sometimes I act younger than I am, but I don't care. There's nobody here to see."

I chose this quote because it shows the acceptance of her realizing that no one is going to save her anytime soon.
