1. A girl named Colie has problems in her school. She can never fit or be part of the popular crew, so she thinks that the reason for that is because she is fat. She is 15 years old. She tries so hard to lose weight, and she succeeds. She realizes that it was a rumor that ruined her reputation, and not because she was fat. When summer comes, Colie is sent to her Aunt Mira. She thinks that she is still going to have a bad reputation, but instead it is the other way around. She starts getting along with everyone in Colby, North Carolina.

2. So far in the book, it is pretty good. Colie has a lot of problems like being fat that she fixes. The book is interesting to read, but it is not one of the best books I have read. I was surprised how Colie thought that reason that she didn't get along with others was because she was fat.

3. The theme I have realized in the book is friendship. The reason that Colie lost weight was because she couldn't fit in with her friends. Her new friends persuaded Colie to lose weight.

4. My favorite character is Colie or Nicole Sparks. She was my favorite character, because she tries really hard to fit in, and she never gives up. She gets persuaded from her peers at school. Colie never gives up. Those are some reasons why Colie is my favorite character.

5. My least favorite characters are the kids in school that don't let Colie fit in. It doesn't matter if she is fat or not. Colie tries really hard to fit in. The kids are my least favorite characters, because they make fun of her and don't let her fit in. Also, even though Colie being fat wasn't the reason that Colie didn't fit in, a reputation shouldn't ruin Colie's life.

6.Next in the book, I think that Colie is going to have a good life in Colby, North Carolina. She is going to meet a lot of new friends there, and maybe get a boyfriend. I think that Colie will live it better in Colby, than in her normal town, so she won't want to go back home, she will want to stay in Colby. Colie will have a better reputation with her aunt Mira.
