This picture of Mexico, Cancun is important to the book because Clara went there to see her mom, but didn't tell her dad that she went. At the time in the book Clara was mad at everybody around her and just wanted to leave, so she did. She regretted going to Mexico because she missed her dad and her friends.

Point of view impacts the book because it is showing what Clara is feeling. We can relate to some of the situations and that might helps us understand the book better. It's also good for us to know what she is feeling and thinking so we might be able to know what comes next in the book. Clara's point of view on some situations might be different than our point of view. What we were thinking and what she was thinking could make us be more frustrated with the book because she is doing what we don't want her to do. Clara's point of view is important to the book though because the book is about her!

This is a symbolic image, because in the book the whole reason why she becomes friends with the people now, is because of the food truck. Clara has to work in the food truck because she pulled a prank at prom, but she has to work there with Rose. A stuck up teenager. A lot happens in the food truck because by the end of the book Rose and Clara are best friends. They begin to get along and have many good memories in the truck. At the begging of the book Rose and Clara would not even talk to each other, but when they got to know each other more they liked each other. They only have this friendship because of the truck. Clara's dad also left the truck to only Rose and Clara and wasn't there to help. Clara's dad knew that they would end up getting along. The other reason why the food truck is so important is because it is put into a food truck contest, but they don't win so there are also memories of sadness. If they won the contest then they would get lots of money to make the food truck even better.

This is my favorite quote of the book because it shows what Clara thinks is important to her. Some teenagers don't really know what is important to them, and it's good that she does know. She is making sure that the people she loves are safe,  even if it's just three people out of the whole city. She wants to make sure that she doesn't lose them because they are part of her family. Even though she will probably lose some people in her life she knows that she will always have those three people by her side.

"In this huge city, there were three people in this truck who mattered a lot to me. I'd protect that little part of the universe for as long as possible"(Goo 319).

I agree with this book review because it is saying what really happened in the book. It also gives a good description of the book, but without giving away the ending which was a big part in it. It mentions something about finding yourself in places you'd never thought to look. This sentence is a good cliffhanger for the reader because now you feel like you have to read the book to know what she means. This drags the reader in to see what happens next.

From the author of I Believe in a Thing Called Love, a laugh-out-loud story of love, new friendships, and one unique food truck.

Clara Shin lives for pranks and disruption. When she takes one joke too far, her dad sentences her to a summer working on his food truck, the KoBra, alongside her uptight classmate Rose Carver. Not the carefree summer Clara had imagined. But maybe Rose isn't so bad. Maybe the boy named Hamlet (yes, Hamlet) crushing on her is pretty cute. Maybe Clara actually feels invested in her dad's business. What if taking this summer seriously means that Clara has to leave her old self behind? With Maurene Goo's signature warmth and humor, The Way You Make Me Feel is a relatable story of falling in love and finding yourself in the places you'd never thought to look.

CHAPTER 1

This paper plane was near perfect.

Crisp edges, a pointy nose, and just the right weight. I held it up, closing my left eye to aim it toward the stage. Rose Carver and her short-brimmed black hat were in fine form...
