Raeanne always escapes her problems with drugs, alcohol, pills (painkillers), and to different boys for obvious reasons. She often drinks and then takes some of her dad's high dosage pain killers. Kaeleigh is the good sister that doesn't do those things but really cares about her reputation but she has her secrets. She binge eats then vomits afterwards and cuts herself. Raeanne runs off to different guys and does drugs with them and got caught a few times. Later on in the book, Kaeleigh was found and she had overdosed because of what her dad had put her through. Going through things like this could cause anybody to go down the wrong path and not be able to change for the better. Different groups could help the girls such as AA, rehab facilities, and talking to therapists or groups. ]]> 2018-01-29 16:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225703290 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225753979 2018-01-29 17:39:06 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225753979 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225754283 2018-01-29 17:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225754283 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225754583 2018-01-29 17:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225754583 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225759473 Dear Ellen Hopkins, 
I really wonder how you got the idea to write this book. Does it somehow relate to you or someone you know? It was a very good book, I loved it in fact. One thing I really like do about your book, was the way you told your story. The pages were very short but you still told your story and got to the point of it. At some points, I felt like somethings weren’t relevant but that happens in every story. I was very confused with the ending and the multiple personalities but as I continued to read, I understood it.  Your book never got boring. In fact, I hated when class ended and had to put the book down. I usually NEVER read at home, and I finished the book at home. So, props to you for writing a book that kept me wanting to read more. I plan on reading more of your books and I’m excited! 

Sincerely, 
    Hannah ]]> 2018-01-29 17:48:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225759473 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225869696 I think that one of Kristina's (Bree) fears would be the fear of falling in love. At the beginning of the book, she was scared to fall in love. When she finally did, everything was great but then Adam (who she fell for), ended up ending things because Kristina went back home after her summer trip. While Kristina was visiting her dad, her and Adam hung out quite a few times but Adam was actually with somebody else which was one of the reasons that I think she was afraid to fall. After all of that and Kristina gets home, time passes and Kristina falls for a different boy, Chase. Chase and Kristina were seeing each other for quite some time and Kristina got pregnant, but not with Chase's baby. Kristina was raped by a guy named Brendan. Another one of her fears was parenthood. Kristina had been doing drugs for quite some time and I'm not so sure that she wanted to give those up for a baby. But, in the end, she chose parenthood and had a healthy baby boy. ]]> 2018-01-29 21:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/225869696 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/229717552 2018-02-08 17:50:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/229717552 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/229723145 2018-02-08 17:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/229723145 hknudtson_181 https://padlet.com/hknudtson_181/89bxvbk72b2t/wish/229729750 A - is for ABANDONMENT that Tony felt when his dad left.
