The final final final post is awesome

Now we finally have read the whole book. From the beginning to the end both Matt and Ursula have changed. And it's all because the bomb-rumour. Ursula get more self-confident, and goes from "ugly girl" to Ursula.  Matt then, he gets smarter, and don't laugh before he really understand why. The book ends with a kiss...

This was the last post on this blogg. Don't cry too much  we'll be back ;)

Memorable scenes and languages

Most memorable scene

In some reason I like the scenes with Matt and his dog, Pumpkin. I do not know why, but I like it. Pumpkin is a golden retriever bitch, not a bitch as a bad ass; of course I mean a female dog. Pumpkin is always happy and can mostly cheer Matt up. Since Pumpkin wore a retriever she liked to hunt. Sometimes Matt felt guilty because he was not a hunter. To make the best of the situation Matt used to throw Frisbees and sticks to her to catch.

The language in the book

It is not that much old fashion words slang in the book. It is quite easy to read, not that much hard words or long sentences. But in the book there sometimes is email-dialogues and there is a huge different in mails that Matt send to Ursula to the emails Ursula send to Matt. Matt writes properly with whole sentences and spell his words correct. Ursula does not care as much as Matt about the way she writes.

The beginning of the story - what do I expect?

The book begins, as Tilda already told, that two men came for Matt. I think the author choose this way to introduce the book to the reader, to catch the reader’s attention. The first chapter is written from Matt’s perspective. When I read the first chapter I wanted to know why the cops were coming for Matt. In the end of the first chapter when Matt wonder why they came for him. One of the cops is answering “Son, you know why we’re here”.

When I read the first chapter I wanted to know what was happening next, and it’s a good thing, at least from the author’s perspective. That make me, and perhaps students all over the world, wanted to read the next chapter too.

I expect the rest of the book keep the same standard as the first chapter.
