Tell Me Three Things - On page 78, a quote that stood out to me was, "Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction," which reflects the complex and unexpected twists in the story. The plot has been engaging. Based on what I've read so far, I predict that the protagonist will soon face a significant challenge or revelation that will force her to confront her past and make important decisions about her future.

“Two sentences, twelve words. That’s all Shara left for her parents.” (page 135) This clue makes the mystery feel even bigger, and I love how the story keeps building. Chloe, Rory, and Smith teaming up is getting really interesting. I predict the next clue will draw us to why she disappeared. I am loving this story and so grateful I get to read this amazing book!

I kissed Shara Wheeler is such a good book! I loved the line on page 12, “She’s glad it’s Shara. Nobody else would have felt important enough.” It really stood out that Chloe’s perspective on Shara already feels complicated, like admiration mixed with rivalry. I’m excited to see how their dynamic evolves and what’s behind Shara’s mysterious behavior. I predict Chloe will uncover more secrets soon. Bye!

The story is moving very slowly, but it’s still interesting to see Maria’s personality develop as she tries to balance her spirit with the strict von Trapp household. I predict she will fall in love with Georg von Trapp as she continues to connect with the children. This quote gives more insight, " You were a good, kind man when we had money, and it turns out that you were a good, kind man even without it." ( pg 186)

Hi! I’ve been reading Maria by Michelle Moran for my independent novel book, and I’m really enjoying it! Since I’ve already watched The Sound of Music, it’s fun to see how the real Maria’s story comes to life in the book. One line I liked early on was when Maria says, “God doesn’t make mistakes, and if He made me this way, there must be a reason.” I can't wait to keep reading and so glad I picked this book. Bye!
