Reflection Questions
- What was your favorite part of the story?Why? My favorite part of the story was when Jessica and Valerie gave their speeches for the Stu-Co project at graduation. This was my favorite part because it showed that Valerie was truly sorry for what she did, and I think most people forgave her.
- What advice would you give the main character?Why? Advice I would give the main character(Valerie) is to not take everything as a joke because some take it seriously. I would tell her this advice because Nick, her boyfriend, was taking everything she said for real and he went a killed himself along with lots of others.
- If you could change something about this book, what would it be and why? If I could change something about the book, I would change Valerie's dad's personality. I would do this because he is really mean to Valerie and Valerie's mum.
