This chapter was so good! It’s so funny how Theo has a crush on Portia now, too. I wonder if Reef’s crush-tainted memories affected that. I find it so cute the normal things in this story. This could have very easily been an extremely depressing and “coming-of-age” story about a boy (Coral Reef) beginning to lose everything and forced into a new lifestyle in order not to lose it all. But it’s not. Thanks to Theo, it’s still coming-of-age, in my opinion, but it’s funny, is lighthearted, and is not depressing. Just kind of serious.
It was actually pretty scary when I realized how for real the memories were. I thought Theo and Reef would just get their memories fixed immediately for some reason, and I also thought it would only be small things. I didn’t expect him to lose the Jaws memory either. Ugh, Theo is so awesome! I felt a certain kind of way when Theo forgot the traps already.
The weird science part was PERFECT! So cool!
Be blessed,
