So sorry I didn’t say anything yesterday! I forgot what happened, but I didn’t have the book. My bad, y’all.
Dude, the memory! Reef must have had a huge crush on Portia to remember all of that detail. Maybe. Maybe not. But that’s interesting.
I really like how Theo’s like “you have to invite yourself” like his dad said.
It was so cool seeing Theo planning on ditching school! I could never do something like that so the anticipation was awesome. So much action too. I also like how Theo rode his bike. I also have a bike, and it makes me realize that I don’t need my mom’s car to go everywhere (I don’t need her to drive me!)
I really like the detail to Theo’s basket case. That made me giggle the first time I read it. I don’t even have a basket case on my bike!
Instead of Theo just getting straight to the school, adding him have no idea how to get there was a nice try-fail or no, but or something. I like how he knew how to get to the bank via Reef’s memories.
Like Raymond, you said, Theo’s dad’s advice was actually helpful for my life too. I like how Theo kind of winged that entire situation. He didn’t know a single one of those kids. He remembered remembering Portia from a memory that wasn’t even his! That scene was so cool, especially how he was like “uh… food bank?” and she just took his word for it! Inviting yourself to places, yeah. When you have a mission, you’ve just got to make it work. Thanks, Theo’s dad.
Be blessed,
Jade
