Up to the middle of the novel



How my feelings change:

I´m surprised how the book goes on and a bit shocked about Sam and Alicia getting a baby. I find the parents of Alicia react to hard to them. But maybe Sam´s mother only know this situation from her own past and understands how this two teens feel.

Which question(s) I would like to direct at a particular character in the novel:

Sam, do you want to get the baby now or not? And do you love Alicia again?

What I am confused about (events or characters):

I find it needless for Sam to go to Hastings. It´s to much for the story and a bit boring to read. It´s confusing how fast it goes with Sam´s mother and Mark.

How I as the author would have changed the book:

They find Sam in Hastings and bring him home. Alicia don´t talk with him. Anytime Sam is so wondering if he get a baby that he visit her. He found´s out that Alicia does´nt get a baby, the test was negative.

Images/pictures I liked:
  • Sam compare hisself with someone who is at the bottom of a sea and the surface is a long way away and there are sharks coming at you..., when his mother goes with him to the cinema and eating pizza.
  • Sam feels like a spectator in a stadium when people are running the 10,000 metres in the Olympics when he listens to a talk between his parents.
  • Sam is in Hastings and can´t sleep, because he has too much blood in his face.
