For the sadder parts of the book I usually find myself listening to Bert's Blues by Donovan (I think there's violins or some other string instrument that makes this song particularly perfect) or Motion Sickness by Phoebe Bridgers. Overall I give it a soft but sometimes dark vibe.]]> 2021-06-01 11:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575964482 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575970754 I did manage to reread the book a few times when I took the pressure off of myself of taking notes. So while it is important to take notes, if you really CAN'T get yourself to read, just don't take them until after you understand what you're reading.]]> 2021-06-01 11:57:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575970754 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575975258 As far as I can tell its about learning how to let go of old nightmares. While not everyone will have such a terrible tragedy fall upon them and their family, we all have things happen that we can't control. Though getting past that kind of trauma is difficult, it is necessary for growth, and such growth takes a really long time. Grief comes in waves, so feeling bad for awhile is normal.]]> 2021-06-01 11:59:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575975258 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575989538 In the middle of chapter 10, Franny tells Susie that there is another heaven where her family is, but in order to get there she needs to let go of Earth and stop searching fo answers. Simply put: do you think we will see Susie go to this place, why or why not?]]> 2021-06-01 12:06:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1575989538 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576039807 Reading in school is just way easier for me. I’m not distracted or bothered by anyone. When at home it’s harder for me to read so sometimes I’ll go in the car in read in there... it’s weird but it helps me get all the pages I need to read out if the way.]]> 2021-06-01 12:29:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576039807 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576042760 ^ I agree with angeni. The whole letting go part and understanding who and why things happen are a part of life ]]> 2021-06-01 12:30:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576042760 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576046191 I think eventually she will have understood her place and go to see what there is for her]]> 2021-06-01 12:32:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576046191 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576053096 Everyone is grieving differently in the book so far... so you think there’s a certain way to grieve (right or wrong way)?  ]]> 2021-06-01 12:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576053096 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576053580 I've gone through alot of grieving of my own in the past two years and while there are different ways to grieve, no I don't think there's any right way to grieve. There are wrong and self destructive ways that I don't recommend, but if you need to go about getting closure a different way than everyone around you: that's okay. My closure ended up coming in the form of just wallowing for a month and avoiding going into my godmother's apartment because my mind needed time to become less sad at the thought of her. For Lindsey it was blocking out all thoughts of her sister for some time and putting up walls to shield herself from anymore pain.]]> 2021-06-01 12:34:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/73le6ctv711ba9zg/wish/1576053580
