1. Right now in my book the main character, Elle, is at a park. She went there to go on a run and clear hear mind. A boy she is friends with, Will, is in the ravine that is near the running path. She goes down to the ravine and they talk for a little. When she says she has to go, and he offer her a ride back so her dad doesn't have to come and get her. On there way back from the ravine they talk about Elle's parents and then they talk about how Will doesn't want to join the military but his dad wants him too.

2. This book is the type of book I wanted to read right now. It is more of a girl book and has a little bit of mystery in it. I haven't read to many mysteries but I like how the mystery is a "how is that possible" sort of mystery so it has an element of fantasy in it right now. It is really interesting how Elle and Will have this weird connection but have only just started to get to know each other. It is like they have meet before. I like how it is almost always interesting and is a pretty easy read.

3. I think the theme of this book is finding friendship in weird places. Elle didn't expect to find many friends when starting her first year at Alavon High. Her parents are on their sabbaticals, they are professors, and they have moved to Maryland from Minnesota to spend there sabbaticals there. But, at her school she finds this boy who she seems to know, but has never meet before. The boy she meets is the type who seems like they have everything perfect and in control. But,it feels like he is hiding something. He dosn't seem like the type she would have expected herself to ever be able to become friends with.

4. My favorite character is Will. He is always turning up in weird places, like the ravine, and seems to be good at everything. Right now there is some sort of mysterious thing about him and it makes you want to read about him more so you can find out what the mystery about is. He is a really nice guy who doesn't like violence or people being mean. He helped a kid get his notebook back from a bunch of bullies and doesn't like the idea of joining the military because he doesn't like hurting people.

5. My least favorite character is Rick. He is the bully who took the notebook from the kid. He was deliberately being mean and it was uncalled for. It makes me think he will be a mean character throughout the book.

6. I think Will and Elle will find out more about the connection between them. Both of them have realized it and it seems to be a very important part in the book. On the side panel of the book it says weird events start happening and I think they will have to do with their connection. Maybe they know each other from some sort of past life.
