Upon the Night, in a box they stay,

Archer in the theater with his new wife May.

It is the less wealthy they judge upon,

Saying, "I didn't think the Mingotts would have tried it on" (Wharton 8).

And gossip spreads like fire throughout this crowd.

The way Archer fixes this is by being bold and loud.

I’m on page 106 of Something In Between by Melisa de la Cruz. The book is written from the main character Jasmine's POV, so it makes it easy to follow. I love how the author relates to teenagers and shows Jasmine's character; for example, she says, “It's not that im playing hard to get-I do have a lot of studying to do” (de la Cruz 40). I think this is a good quote to show Jasmine's unintentionally funny demeanor.

I'm on page 42 of Something In Between by Melissa de la Cruz. The first conflict that I have recognized this early in the Book is how Jasmines scene perfection affects her personal life. Being from a family of immigrants, Jasmine always felt that she was being depended on to succeed, often causing her to miss out on life. She talks about “Everything [she's] given up” (Cruz 15) so that she could succeed in life.
