On page 52 it says "She was so thin, Emaciated. it was obvious, even though she was wearing even baggier clothes than last time I'd seen her, and more layers as well. Her eyes looked sunken in her face and you could see all the tendons in her neck.

On page 9 it says "She was right, of course. Kristen was our resident drama queen. Her emotions were always at full throttle, as was her mouth; she never stopped talking, even if she was well aware you weren't listening to her. in contrast, Whitney was the silent type, which meant the few words she uttered always carried that much more meaning.

On page 13 it's says "Hold on," Kirsten said, her voice loud. "What did you just say?" The girl turned around. when she saw my sister, her eyes Widened. "What?" She said, and I couldn't help but notice how different this, the first words she'd ever said to me, sounded as she said it now.

On page 74 it says "Annabel." Sophie leveled her gaze at me. At the time this was new, but later I'd come to recognize her expression, a mis of annoyance and impatience. it was the look she's give me a million times over the years, whenever I wasn't doing what she wanted."

On page 56 it says " Whitney?" I said, crouching down beside her. I couldn't imagine what she's been doing her in the dark, alone, so late night. "Are you--" Then I saw the toilet. the lid was up and inside was this yellowy mix, tinges with red that I knew, somehow, with one look, was blood.

On page 9 it says "She nodded. "She has dark hair, a bit taller than you. Maybe you've seen her around the neighborhood." I thought for a second. "I don't know--"

"That's who that is!" Kristen said suddenly. she put down her fork with a clank. "The stalker from the pool. Oh my God, I knew she was younger than us."

On page 62 it says "There were some weeks when is seemed like Whitney was really getting better, gain weight, clearly on her way. and then there were others when she's refuse to eat breakfast, or get caught doing forbidden crunches in her room late at night, and only the threat of having to go back into the hospital and be force-fed was enough to make her get back in line.

On page 68 it says "For all her bravo, thought, I knew Sophie had her own problems. Her parents had just recently divorced, and while she's mentioned repeatedly all the stuff her dad brought her when she lived in Texas--clothes, jewelry, anything she wanted--one day I'd overheard my mom and one of her friends discussing the divorce, which was apparently very ugly."

# data[].attributes.body
On page 15 it says "Hi" Clarke said, after a just long enough to be noticed awkward silence. Then she sneezed before adding. "We brought your stuff." The girl just looked at her for a second, as if she didn't understand what she was saying. which, with Clarke's congestion, she probably didn't.

On Page 18 it says "Since Emily had been my friend first, I'd thought maybe, just maybe, she might still be. Apparently not. The lines had been drawn, and now I knew for sure I was standing outside them."

On page 178 it says "As she turned on the faucet and began washing her hands, I walked over to the window to look at the flowerpots. The dirt in them was black and frangent, spotted with fertilizer, and I see beads if water here and there, glistening in the sunlight."

On page 105 it says "Suddenly, I heard a beep, the turned my head to see a Honda Civic pulling into the spot next to me. which wouldn't have been noteworthy, really, except the driver had on a bright red helmet. It wasn't the kind football players wear, exactly, but something a little bigger, with more padding. the guy wearing it looked to be about my age and was dressed in a black sweatshirt and jeans. He waved to me, and I waved back, tentatively, and then he was rolling down his window."

On page 60 its says "A faucet dripping," I said. He nodded. "Thats music?" "Obviously not to everyone," he replied, shooting me a look. I smiled. "But that was kind of a point. it was, like, this whole uncharted territory. I started writing own the stuff he was playing, and looking for it at record stores and online. it gave me something to focus on other than all the stuff going down at home. plus, it came in handy when I needed to drown out the screaming downstairs."

On page 180 it says "Sure. I mean, for one, it's exciting," he said. "And another, you really get to me at people on such a personal level. There's a real bonding in someone beating the crap out of you." I glance over at Owen, who was switching hears with one hand and adjusting the stereo with the other. "You can look at me all you want," he said, keeping his eyes on the road. "I am not commenting on that."

On page 133 it says "So, did you listen?" I put my sandwich down to face him. He was in his normal spot, wearing jeans and a black crew neck. his Ipod was out as well, earphones hanging around his neck. "to your show?" I said "Yeah." I nodded.

On page 173 it says "When I got home later that afternoon, Whitney was out on the front steps. there was a row of four small flowerpots lined up in front of her, a bag of potting soil beside them, and she was sitting there, a small shovel in one hand, with an annoyed expression on her face."

On page 203 its says "They were all there. Every song we'd ever talked about or argued about, listed in careful order. The Mayan chants, from the first day he'd given me the ride. "Thank you" by Led Zeppelin, from when I picked him up. Entirely too much techno, every thrash metal song. Even Jenny Reef. As I listened to a bit of each, I thought of all the times I'd seen Owen with his earphones on and wondering what he was listening to, much less thinking about. Who would have guessed that it might have been me."

On page 148 it says "You gotta ask," he said, reaching forward and sliding the CD into my stereo. "Only a real asshole takes liberties with someone else's car stereo. That's serious."

On page 142 it says "Thing. Like I said, major placeholder, super vague. In confrontations, you have to be specific as possible, to avoid misunderstandings." He leaned a little closer to me. "Look, I know its weird," he said "but it works. I promise."

On page 300 it says "And then he was gone. Walking across the parking lot, his bag over one shoulder, already lifting his earphones to his ears. Almost a year ago I'd watched him this same way, just after he punched Ronnie Waterman out. Then, I'd been awed, and slightly scared, and I felt the same way now as I realized what my silence and fear had cost me, yet again."
