In this story, Diamond's friends are very concerned about Diamond's safety, holding candlelight vigils and posting information about her on social media. This reminds me of a news article that I read about Annie Schmidt, the daughter of one of the Piano Guys (Jon Schmidt). She went missing, and her family/friends posted information about her, but eventually she was found dead. ]]> 2016-11-14 15:50:43 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_nelson1/jcayykj1a2si/wish/137414717 https://padlet.com/madison_nelson1/jcayykj1a2si/wish/137415411 Im reading Breath Annie Breath, which tells the story of Annie, a 17 year old girl whose boy friend died.
