Toby just leaving here is quite odd, as there is still a good chunk of the book left, and I can't think of an effective way for it to go on without him. I wonder what will happen to make him stay, as I am pretty sure that Toby won't leave now when the book is not yet over, and several things still have not been resolved. Perhaps Annabelle will convince him to stay and stand up for himself by going along with her plan, or something will happen with Betty.

I find it amazing that even though Betty has been so cruel and wicked to Annabelle so far, Annabelle still feels sorry for not doing something sooner about rescuing Betty and feels sorry for Betty herself. This illustrates Annabelle's kindhearted nature and true caring for everyone, even people that have hurt her so much and might not even deserve such worry.

So this is why the author had Officer Coleman say that Betty could be someplace where she wouldn't be easily found, like a well, which is a clever piece of foreshadowing. Additionally, when I read about Annabelle hearing a strange noise when going to Toby's smokehouse, I didn't at all connect it to Betty and where she could be. Even though Betty is a cruel and heartless girl, I almost feel sorry for her. Betty could be dead or at the bottom of the well in the dark, alone, and in lots of pain as she faces a prolonged and painful death, which is something horrible to think about and hard to wish on anybody, even Betty. Perhaps rescuing Betty from the well will serve as the climax of this story.

I absolutely love this quote, and I believe it's on the back cover of the book (no wonder why they put it there!). Annabelle uses a great comparison to put her view on life into perspective for readers and speaks to the main theme of this book. Firstly, by comparing her life to the notes in a grand, massive symphony, Annabelle can let readers know that she understands that she is a small voice in a large world filled with millions of other voices but wants to sing her part as loudly and beautifully as she can. This perfectly illustrates one of the central themes in this book, that even though you may not be heard sometimes by people who don't value your opinion or statements, you should make people listen to you when you know you're right and stand up for yourself. This is what Annabelle does in this book. She is constantly being ignored, and her opinions are never given much thought as she keeps saying that Toby is innocent and Betty is the real bully, but very few people will listen to her. Instead of being defeated and staying quiet, Annabelle continues to fight for what is right and face injustice by protecting Toby and being an adamant supporter of his. All in all, the metaphor Annabelle uses and its deep significance is just another writing masterpiece the author has included in this book.

I'm still not entirely sure whether or not Toby is telling the truth here, but it seems that way. If so, I think that it is interesting how the author finally decided to reveal Toby's backstory. I think it's interesting that Toby hasn't been using his real full name and has been concealing his entire past life from even Annabelle. This could be due to a few things. Firstly, Toby was probably so traumatized and affected by the war and his experiences in it that he now thinks that he can't trust other people, so he doesn't tell people who he is. Another potential reason is that Toby doesn't think about his life before the war and believes that he is a changed man after seeing the things he saw in the war.

So it turns out that Betty is seemingly okay after all, but I am still kind of suspicious about how the whole thing turned out, as I was kind of expecting a big twist. From what Annabelle's father said about Betty's condition, it seems like she wasn't as hurt as I initially thought she was. I wonder if people, like Aunt Lily, will believe Betty when she says that Toby pushed her into the well. If so, that could create more trouble for Annabelle and Toby, and it just shows how Betty continues to be cruel towards Annabelle and Toby even when she is pretty hurt. I wonder how Annabelle will protect Toby now that all evidence seems to be pointing to him as the culprit.

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if Betty is going to be okay. In her current condition, it doesn't really seem that way. On the other hand, it seems kind of pointless for the author to have this whole rescue scene and then just have Betty die when she is not with Annabelle and in some hospital. If that is the case, that will probably be the climax of the book, discovering that Betty has died and seeing everyone's reaction to that. I believe that the well rescue was for the author to add in a thrilling and suspenseful action sequence, as I was certainly on edge while reading this.

On these pages Annabelle's mother (Sarah) is probably discovering that Annabelle is hiding something from her. I infer this because Annabelle turned to Toby or Jordan when Aunt Lily said "And what about that Toby, Aunt Lily asked. 'Have they found him yet?" Sarah probably believes that Annabelle knows where Toby is or she believes that Jordan is Toby. I also believe this because when Sarah heard Jordan's voice she questioned him, if his name was really Jordan. This is probably because Jordan's voice sounds similar to Toby's voice. Sarah also knows Toby really well, so she knows what his voice sounds like. She might believe that Jordan and Toby are the same people.

These five pages were terrifying because I was so scared for Betty because no one knew what happened to her. Also, because I was scared that Toby or Jordan might get stuck down in the well with Betty. I wished that the author didn't use good imagery during that situation because it put all the readers in fear, even if it was Betty. Annabelle was also scared for Betty and it showed that Annabelle had empathy towards Betty. Even if she had hurt her and her family before.

# data[].attributes.body
The people in the town didn't know "Jordan" for that long and they trusted him, and they didn't think he was weird. This is probably because he looked normal but Toby isn't, so they treated Jordan like he is a normal person. But Toby, people looked at him and judged him just because he didn't talk and he carried guns with him. They did not treat Toby correctly. I think the author is trying to say that, don't judge a book by its cover. Judge them on their personality and inside, not there outside.

# data[].attributes.body
It is sad and odd to think that Toby is leaving Annabelle and her family. I infer that something is going to happen to make Toby come back. There is still a lot of the book left. So Annabelle is probably going to try to get Toby to stay or Annabelle can actually clear Toby's name, so he won't have to play the game anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
Betty is still acting like a jerk because she is still lying and accusing Toby of doing something wrong. She said that Toby pushed her into the well when actually he didn't. Toby was with Annabelle the whole time. I wonder if she wants to do this on purpose. I also wonder why she hates Toby so much, because all Toby ever did was trying to protect Annabelle from her.

# data[].attributes.body
This is just a very odd situation. Also this is kind of sad. Toby just goes away. I would have thought he would have been sad and talking to Annabelle or to the father saying more than that he did not want to play the game more. It is just very depressing. But he just leaves which I do think supports what the mom said that Toby is "odd".

# data[].attributes.body
Since Toby looks different he is treated different. Betty was being severely hurt and they let some random guy go and save her. If they knew that was Toby they would have taken Toby away and not let Toby near her. People need to start being more considerate and getting to know the person first.

# data[].attributes.body
In some ways I agree with Annabelle and in some ways I agree with Toby. I think Betty truly does not hat Toby. But it is the best way for her to get out of trouble. She likes to blame everything on him. And when she does this others believe it. But I also do agree that it sort of "...sounds like hate..." but I think Betty is just smart.

# data[].attributes.body
This is sort of shocking to me. Annabelle usually does not tell her parents those things or waits a very long time. But she does do it. The dads reaction was exactly what I thought it was. I wonder if they will bring this though or idea to the Constable. I think they will have to think about it for a little but then will eventually tell and we will find out soon.

This page surprised me. I could never imagine kids, going out to someone's house, AND SETTING IT ON FIRE. Even though they didn't follow through with it, it was still horitying. However Betty did put the wire under the bed. I think that is horrible what betty is doing just so she can make Toby's life miserable. I wonder if she was close with the family member that died in the war and that is why she is mad at Toby.

# data[].attributes.body
When Toby was disguised as "Jordan" no one thought anything weird of it. He looked normal so people treated him normal. But when he was "Toby" people looked at him and judged him. And he was not treated correctly. People judge based off looks to much in this world. People need to get to know the person first.

# data[].attributes.body
It will be very different without Toby in the story. It was very surprising when he just walked off without saying anything else because he could have stayed with them because they were a safe place but he just didn't. He probably knew that he would be caught eventually but I feel like he will be caught more easily if he just walks around. I hope that he comes back because the story won't be the same without him.

These pages were horrifying. They shook me to my core and I kind of wished that the author had not used as good imagery because this whole situation was very detailed and was made to put the reader in a state of fear, even though it was a character that many hated from the beginning. Ity also shows that Annabelle still has empathy towards Betty, even though she had hurt her and the people she loved multiple times.

# data[].attributes.body
It is quite interesting that he was actually using information from his life. I think that because he is so reserved that it was safe because people don't know his full story and where he was from. I feel like he might have planned this because he needed to find the person that would care for him and be his friend. I think that he did tell Annabelle about this when it wasn't told to the readers to build more suspense.

# data[].attributes.body
This part surprised me a lot. It was really sad when he didn't bring his camera. Even though he wouldn't be getting any new film or even able to send the film to be developed, I think that it would still be very nice if he bring the camera, to remember the memories of when he was there. Maybe he didn't want to bring the camera because of that. Maybe he doesn't want to remember the things that happened when he was there. I feel like the book will be very different without Toby. I hope that maybe at the end of the book, he might want to turn around and walk back.
