In the book Sonya goes to this preppy school and lived in a rich neighborhood until her gets addicted to drugs. After a while, Sonya's mom starts sailing heir stuff and going to desperate measures just to be able to buy drugs. Sonya was very depressed and began going to therapy and her therapist per scribed her pills that Sonya's mom ended up taking so that she can get high. Sonya ended up moving to the "ghetto" where everything would be different and Sonya would be able to begin a new life.
1. How is the character in my book similar to a character in another book?
I think that Sonya is similar to Cathy, the main character of another book that I read. I think that they are similar because they both change who they are just to impress some one. In Sonya's case she lets the popular kids think that she is biracial just so that she can be a part of their crowd and in Cathy's case she changes who she is so that she will impress the most popular girl in school and also so that she will impress this boy that she really likes.
2. What advice would you give to one of the characters in your book and why?
I would tell Sonya that if the popular crowd doesn't like her for who she really is then they don't really like her. They like the person that she is pretending to be. I would tell her that she should just go and make some really friends that like her for who she is. Also that they are bound to find out who she really is and end up dumping her as a friend.
3. How has what you have read so far change your perspective on life?
This book really allows me to really see where Sonya is going wrong and make sure that I don't make those mistakes. Even me having to think about advice that I would give Sonya now I will remember that I should follow my own advice and never try to be some one I'm not just to impress someone.
