Essay Topics

Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:

Essay Topic 1

When Abby speaks of college, she says excitedly that real life is starting (171). What lessons from the novel do you think the characters have learned that will carry over to the real life? How do you think they still need to evolve or grow? Choose three characters to say what you think they will learned and how this will help them.

Essay Topic 2

Morgan makes a racist comment about Abby, and Leah calls her out on it to the detriment of their friendship for some time. Look at this situation from two angles. First, how does Morgan's response and defensiveness show an ally's reaction gone wrong? How does forgiveness and reconciliation take place after these kinds of racist comments for the characters involved? And how does the handling and response to the situation on many levels show ways, good or bad, that these kinds of comments can be dealt with? Which characters do you think acted right in this situation, and how do you think they could have improved?

Essay Topic 3

Leah is very close to her mother and tells her everything, but when her mom starts dating Wells she feels unhappy. Similarly, she feels unhappy being left out of Simon and Bram's relationships. How do relationships change other relationships and friendships? Is this true for all or just Leah's perception and response? How do these dynamics shift back, either through changes or realizations, so Leah no longer feels left out, and how is this a part of her growth in the novel?
