Taylor is slipping in catching up with Kat. She has to be perfect, but to her she's not even close to perfect. She doesn't want to be friends with her old friends because she thinks they will just betray her, but what choice does she have? "'You don't always have to be perfect Taylor' They said. 'Well I have to now.' Taylor said." (225) This means that Taylor is not struggling,now she has to think is it worth it?

Everywhere Taylor goes she has to do everything right, since she's hanging out with Kat now. Since her best friends are hiding from here everywhere she goes, Taylor decided that she rather have Kat as a friend. I think it isn't nice how her best friends just ditch her for themselves. "'Are you walking with us' Sam and Cat said. 'No I'm walking with Kat.' Taylor said." (154) This means she no longer trust her friends.

Taylor is not happy about how her friends are excluding her out of everything, she doesn't figure out yet that her friends like hanging out with each other than hanging out with Taylor. Now Taylor met someone named Kat that she has to have standards with. "And She'll get closer to Taylor. They will have a ever lasting friendship." (96) This shows that Taylor wants to be friends with a Kat, but there are standards.

The beginning of the book starts off with Taylor the main character opening presents for Christmas. Taylor feels like her friends are maybe excluding her from the group. "Taylor feels a prickle of irritation"(53) This means that she feeling a little bit of irritation from her friends, and she's getting annoyed.

To tell you the truth, I am not in the book AT ALL. First of all, the girl's relationship with her and her mom is confusing. I don't undersatnd if her mom is ill or just one of those sigle moms that stay at home all day and do nothing. Second of all, what kind of friends are Taylor's friends when they do stuff together and leave Taylor out of it. I would tell them how I felt if i were her.

Gah! It's so boring!

So far my book is very interesting.Taylor is the main character of my book. She is a good, friendly person. She has two best friends, Sophie and Sam, but Taylor notices their starting to act a little weird. They have been doing things without Taylor, stuff they usually dont do. Taylor is starting to feel left out. In addition, Taylor is beginning to think that she needs to act different to fit in with them.
