Status Updates From Then Again, Maybe I Won't

very good

Ok Tony needs to stop being a creep who is looking out the window and watching a girl way out of his league. Who said that? Also, sweetie, let that poor grandma just be in charge of her kitchen.

TEXT TO TEXT: In both 'Tiger Eyes' (1) and 'Then Again, Maybe I Won't' (2) the main characters struggle with change. For Davey in (1), she is scared of her father's death. Her mother gets scared. In (2), it's when Tony's family gets sudden wealth, and that's now all his mom cares about. For example, on page 41 it says, "She's a lot more interested in the Hoober's now". This shows the mother changing, like in (1).

It’s been years since I’ve read any Judy Blume novels. I picked them up again when so many of them landed on the banned book list. She had a talent for understanding the feelings of middle schoolers and the emotional state of that time of life.
