Journal 2 In this roller coaster of a book‚ I am currently on page 326 out of 537. The author of this book is Ellen Hopkins. When I started this book I thought it was just another story about a teenager that didn’t have any friends but that all changed when she went to Nevada. Throughout this journal I will be visualizing‚ predicting and questioning.
