I love this book!!! And the fact that she decided to tell Mr. Freeman about all that happened that year is amazing. That was a huge step for her. I mean talking, her, thats a real shock! And if I were her I would be thanking the lacrosse team a bunch. Melinda may have won but she did have to have stitches which sucks just as bad , or worse than summer school and she has that too. Despite all of that I loved this book!!!!!!!!!!! I mean it had suspense, love, hate, and fear all in one, WOW!
Hero in Me By: Emily Osment
My mirror has broken for me.
''IT happened. There is no avoiding it, no forgetting. No running away, or flying, or burying, or hiding. Andy Evans raped me in August when I was drunk and too young to know what was happening. It wasn't my fault. He hurt me. It wasn't my fault. And I'm not going to let it kill me. I can grow.'' Speak Pg. 198
''I have survived. I am here. Confused, screwed up, but here. So, how can I find my way? Is there a chain saw for the soul, an ax I can take to my memories or fears? I dig my fingers into the dirt and squeeze. A small, clean part of me waits to warm and burst through the surface. Some quiet Melindagirl I haven't seen in months. That is the seed I will care for.'' Speak Pg. 188
I am healing. I am happy
Art my true burrow!!
I am relieved. I have finally told my story from start to finish. Plus Rachel, me and everyone else is now free of ANDY EVANS. Oh, and I may have summer school and stitches, but I also have an A+ in art and completed an amazing tree even I think was awesome. I think that I can actually grow now. I could even be the best kid on the block by the end of summer. Kinda like the tree in my front yard. Ha Ha. I am the tree and the tree is me. Ha Ha.
