1. Right now in the book Murphy and Sophie have just gotten into a really big fight. Sophie has finally gotten her friends back and she is a lot happier. Murphy, or Robin, is really sad because she is not spending all of her time with him. He starts being really mean to her and they start arguing. The next couple of days in school they don't talk, they try to avoid each other. Sophie realizes that she was king of ignoring him. When she goes to apologize to him, she find him making out with another girl. She stands there in disbelief and when he notices her, she runs away.

2. So far i think that this book is ok. It isn't as good as the first book in the series, what my mother doesn't know. This book gets kind of predictable at times while the first one keeps you guessing. Also, this book is a little to easy to follow. It doesn't really challenge your mind or make you think about anything. It gives you everything you need to know in black and white. Even with those minor flaws, it is still a well thought out book so far and it keeps you hooked.

3. Right now in this book I have noticed love as a major theme. Sophie is a very popular girl with all the friends she can ever hope for. She meets this kid named Robin over vacation and falls in love with him. Robin doesn't really have any friends and he does not really fit in. He is a freshman in high school, like Sophie, accept he has red hair and a full beard. Sophie's friends have ignored her ever since she started going out with Murphy, but she still goes out with him. That is love if she does not care what other people think.

4. Right now my favorite character in the book is Sophie. She can get anything she wants. But, she decides to drop all of that to get out with someone that is losing her all of her friends. I think that is a very nice thing to do. She doesn't care who knows or who cares about her and Robin. All she cares about is spending all of her time with the guy she loves. That makes her my favorite character because she is being herself rather then fitting in.

5. Right now in the book my least favorite character is Dylan. Dylan went out with Sophie the year before for a really long time. He is really popular and is getting his friends to help him. He is trying to get Sophie and Robin to break up because he can't stand a nerd to be around his ex-girlfriend. He always picks on Robin and says really nasty things to Sophie, behind her back and too her face. I think he is doing all this just because he is jealous that Sophie did not want to out with him anymore.

6. I think that Sophie and Robin will break up. Sophie has done so much for him and gone through so much pain. She has lost all of her friends and all of her popularity. And in return, the guy she does it all for, decided to cheat on her because of one little fight. I don't think she will be able to handle this, no matter how much he apologizes. I think they will break up and go on with there lives just like they were before they broke up.
