https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi Made with discussion of THEME en-us 2016-09-29 19:07:14 UTC 2017-05-17 07:26:15 UTC hello@padlet.com mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127985777 I think the Isla is going to  get to know Josh more and they are going to be more than friends. I know this because they seemed to be getting a long quite well at Kismet, the restaurant they met at.]]> 2016-10-03 18:46:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127985777 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127987828 I think the theme so far is to be yourself. I know this because while Josh and Isla are at the cafe, she is being herself even though she is on her pain medication, she still showed who she was. Also Josh wasnt afraid to show her who he was too when he showed her his drawings. I know this because the text says, "]]> 2016-10-03 18:53:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127987828 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127992107 I think that Isla is very attached to Josh. She is very observant, and kind of obsessed in a way. I know this because she spent the whole summer looking for him, and when she saw him at the dorm, the text says, "I close my eyes to steady myself. Im dizzy. It physically hurts to look at him."]]> 2016-10-03 19:08:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127992107 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127995235 I can infer that Kurt, Islas bestfriend, is a very interesting character and he is not afraid to speak his mind. I know the because, he always tells Isla what hes thinking, rather is be negative or positive. ]]> 2016-10-03 19:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127995235 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127995893 I can infer that after Isla seeing Josh in the elevator at the dorm, and him seeing her back, that he is going to come back to that floor and meet up with Isla,  or Isla is going to get into the elevator and try to find him again. ]]> 2016-10-03 19:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/127995893 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128308147 I think that Kurt is mad at Isla for hanging out with Josh more than usual. I know this because the text says, "Kurt had been giving me dirty looks." This shows that he is probably not very happy with Isla.]]> 2016-10-04 19:00:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128308147 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128308743 I think the theme so far is to not judge people by whats on the outside, or by what someone else has told you about them.Try to get to know them first or understand them. Try to accept who they are and not treat them differently. I know this because while Josh and Isla are hanging out one day, Josh asks about Kurt's autism. The text says, "What else do I need to know about Kurt?" In this quote, Josh is asking Isla about Kurt to understand him. The text also says, "His brain just works a little differently from ours. That's all." This shows that Isla accepts Kurt for who he is even though he works differently.]]> 2016-10-04 19:01:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128308743 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128310808 I think that Isla is nervous about talking to Josh. She might also be nervous to show how she really is and her personality. ]]> 2016-10-04 19:08:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128310808 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128311065 I think that Josh is or is trying to be a very understanding person. I know this because he keeps asking Isla about Kurt to understand  him. "What else do I need to know about Kurt?" This quote shows that  Josh is asking Kurt's  autism to understand what he should and shouldn't do.]]> 2016-10-04 19:09:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128311065 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128610393 "So stay here next weekend. Go out with me."
I did not see this coming. I did not think that Isla could have that much courage.]]> 2016-10-05 18:45:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128610393 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128619138 At the beginning of the book, I thought that Isla would be shy the whole time. I wasnt expecting some of the things shedid from her.]]> 2016-10-05 19:09:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128619138 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128621508 I think another theme so far could be, there is such thing as love and dont underestimate it. I know this because the text says,"And that's when it hits me that this---this---is falling in love." This quote shows that Isla probably did not beleive that love was a real thing but now she knows it is.]]> 2016-10-05 19:17:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/128621508 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129607414 I think Kurt is mad at Isla for taking Josh to the treehouse. I can infer this because when she tells him/ when he finds out, all he has to say is, "Mm."    I know that when I say this it means im upset with someone.]]> 2016-10-10 18:44:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129607414 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129608224 I can infer that Kurt and Isla will stop being friends. I infer this because they have been spending less time together and they barely talk now that Josh is around.]]> 2016-10-10 18:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129608224 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129609645 I can infer that Josh is not going home because he got kicked out, but because his parents are tired of him getting in trouble, so they took him out themselves.]]> 2016-10-10 18:51:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129609645 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129610465 I can infer that Isla is shocked and devastated that Josh is leaving to go home. I also think that she thinks once he goes he wont be coming back.]]> 2016-10-10 18:54:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129610465 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129610992 I think that if they go out of the country, they will get caught and suspended.]]> 2016-10-10 18:56:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129610992 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129611906 I think that Josh is worried they will get suspended because they got caught. I also think that Josh is very unsure what to do. I know this because the text says," He paces the room. He rakes his scalp with both hands." I know that if I did this, I would probably be frustrated with my self or upset and unsure what to do.]]> 2016-10-10 18:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129611906 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129612678 I think that Isla will see Josh at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade after not seeing him for a while.]]> 2016-10-10 19:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129612678 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129613530 I am really shocked that Isla is saying this kind of stuff to Josh. I never would have thought that she would, and I think she only is because she doesnt truly believe that he loves her. I am really shocked, but I think that They will make up and get back together.]]> 2016-10-10 19:05:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129613530 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129614260  I can defenitely tell that Josh wants Isla back and hes upset he lost her. I know this because in his voicemail, he says," Dont do this to us, I think your afraid." I now that if I said this to anyone, i would want someone back and be upset.]]> 2016-10-10 19:07:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129614260 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129615031 I think that Isla misses Josh as well and she was disappointed when she saw the letters that she had werent hers. I know this because the text says " My arm trembles as I reach inside and pull it out. Its not from him. ..... Im still not any closer to being over Josh." This shows that she is not over him and she misses him.]]> 2016-10-10 19:10:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129615031 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129616489 I think that Isla and Josh are going to meet up again after them talking on the phone for the first time since she broke up with him.]]> 2016-10-10 19:16:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129616489 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129617091 I can infer that Josh and Isla will get back together after she reads his new story, Spaces. I can also infer that Josh wrote this story off of what Isla told him he needed to fix. I think she is going to love his new story.]]> 2016-10-10 19:18:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129617091 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129617631 I absolutely loved this book and I would read it a million more times. it actually made me cry at some parts, like when she broke up with him and when she was reading the second book that he based off of her suggestions. Especially at the parts that he hoped were going to happening that hadnt yet but did when she was done. It was very interesting and I couldnt stop reading it.]]> 2016-10-10 19:20:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129617631 mbranson2021 https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129618230 I think another theme of the book is just because you get new friends doesnt mean you have to kick out the old ones, or disclude them from anything. Everyone is different and has their own way of doing things but we really are all the same. Just because someone new comes along doesnt mean someone old should be tossed.]]> 2016-10-10 19:23:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mbranson2021/ajtxiekhsaqi/wish/129618230
