Jude was jealous‚ but not because Noah and their mother had a stronger bond. Because her mother didn’t look at her drawings. She only saw Noah’s and liked them a lot. This novel worked so well with my theme with the twins fighting the parents not knowing what’s going on but hurting the situation more because they don’t love each other like they use to. Siblings

O’Connor paints everyone around Hazel as being so attracted to his uniqueness and determination‚ yet he is easily annoyed and disgusted by each of them. It is so humorous how he hates the mere presence of each character‚ yet they fall in love with him. O’Connor also included a series of funny quotes using
