Twisted Inside Twisted

⚠️Alert on the Book⚠️

If you're sensitive to certain topics like suicide then I probably wouldn't recommend this book due to the mention of someone considering suicide. 

________________________________________________________________________________

Twisted By Laurie Halse Anderson is a really great book. The way the main character, Tyler, thinks and the way he acts throughout the story is very "twisted." His family life at home with his sister, Hannah, and his parents. The way his dad is violent but his mom seems too scared to do anything about it. But that's not the point here. The point is how Tyler does something you probably wouldn't expect him to do.
In the beginning he did something illegal to the school building. And after that problem his consequences build up more and more and he has all these different kinds of thoughts on what to do about it. In the end he figures out what the real problem is and he tries to solve it. Of course all problems has difficulties included and Tyler seems to have many of them.
Meanwhile, his best friend, Yoda (That's his nickname) tries to help him out with Bethany Milbur, a crush of Tyler's. Things start to escalate as Tyler is seen as a suspect of an incident that occurred with Bethany at a party. After the word spreads around school, Bethany's brother, Chip, and his gang is at Tyler's throat.

💙The Best and Most Fabulous Days Ever!!💚

One of the best days ever was when I met my friends, Kailyn and Mya. I remember meeting Kailyn in the summer around July. I remember asking if I could talk to her because I had no one to talk to. At first I can tell she wasn't really comfortable with it but she did it anyways. Then we started getting more and more comftorble with telling each other personal things. Soon we became the best of friends.
We Skype each other almost all the time. She likes to talk a lot and I don't really mind it because I'm more of an introverted person. Although sometimes she has lazy days in which she persuades me into doing all the talking and I do it. Anyways one day we were talking about our crushes and our friends and who we really trust and she mentioned a girl named Mya. She said she really trusted her and that she thinks we would like each other, and that we'd end up being good friends.
I spoke with Mya after that and we, surprisingly, had a lot in common. We both loved drawing and we had much passion in it. She got bullied at times by other people but me and Kailyn helped her out on that and made her feel better. Sometimes, rarely though, all three of us go in a Skype call and talk endlessly about who we like and what we like and sometimes we go weird and off-topic. Example: one time we were talking about what our crushes did and what we should do (You know, the usual) and then, I don't remember who specifically but, someone mentioned cookies and so we started talking about different kinds of cookies and what kind we did or didn't like.
We are all so very weird and interesting but I love them for that. I can trust them with anything and I think they feel the same as well. Whenever one of us are troubled the others help. It's a nice, calm, collective group of nice friends. I'm glad that I met them.
Anyways those (separate but amazing) days were the best days ever to me.

The Mystery Thief

"I couldn't believe it!" Stated an irritated 8th grader at Heritage Middle School. On the morning of October 20th many of the 8th grade students were angry because "majority of the money for the 8th grade Springfield trip was stolen." As stated by Ms.Hauer. It was also stated that the students could not attend the trip because of this incident. Many students seemed bitter, irritated and disappointed with this. One 8th grade student stated "It was upsetting to hear that we all paid 80$ just to have it stolen." No one knows why the thief did it but they do know that they cannot have a refund on their trip that they paid for.

When these students received this distressing message, it caused many people to worry. One witness reported that they saw and heard students accusing others of stealing the money. As the day went by students were starting to worry more, that is until the end of the school day came. When many 8th graders were in their last class of the day their teachers announced that the stolen money was false, and that it was only stated to prove that 8th graders blame each other for things they didn't do and that it shouldn't happen again. Many 8th graders were furious that the teachers used the field trip as an "example for this"

In the end the school just wanted to prove that pointing fingers was wrong and that people should get facts before they blame others. This is the perspicuous story on what happened on the breezy day of October 20th.
