5. What was one of your favorite lines (or sentences) in what you read today? Copy it down and tell why you liked it. (It can be more than a sentence if you like, but not too long—you still need to write words of your own!)
"I mean the funeral was all weird. All these people I never saw before and the preacher said stuff that was all wrong. Not like Zach at all. It was like no one had even met him, let alone knew him well. They were all talking about the imaginary Zach"
I did not like this passage. It confused me and didn't make sense. If you keep reading it doesn't elaborate more either. Like, of course the preacher doesn't know Zach, the preacher's don't usually know the people. &of course there were people that she didn't know there, it's not like she was with him 24/7. Most people don't go to a funeral for someone they hadn't even known. &She also did not elaborate on the "Imaginary Zach"


14. What other character(s) beside the main character is really important to the story? How and why?
Zach definitely isn't the main character, but I think he is one of the most important character's in this book. Micah's life is basically about him. He is her life. She spends most of her time talking about him, crying about him, or thinking about him.
Although Zach was never actually talking in the story, Micah told stories about him, and how she met him etc. All the students in this story are so surprised, about him. No one is used to hearing a class mate dying, especially the fact that he was murdered, and yet no one knows where his body is. So this book mainly talks about him, his death and Micah's conflict so I think he is really important to the story.
