The End

How does the book end?!?! Did you enjoy how the author, Carol Plum-Ucci, concluded the story? Why/ why not? If you were the author, how would you have ended everything? Be very specific in your answer, and pull a quotation from the text as to what you liked/ did not like?

Torey transferred schools because he realized he is mentally unstable in Steepleton when he saw the dead body it wasn't creed it was Digger. The ending does leave you wondering and asking questions. If I was the author i would have ended it with all questions answered but i do like how Carol ended it because it's her book and I enjoyed it.

Dishonesty Breeds Dishonesty/ Ch. 17

In life, many cynics believe that the only person that an individual can completely trust is oneself. Why do you agree/ disagree with this philosophy? After reading chapter seventeen, do you think Torey should adopt this philosophy? Provide evidence from the book for your response.

I do agree with this, I feel you should have friends and someone to talk to but you should always watch out for who you should trust.I don't only think Torey should follow this but everyone especially with the reputation Steepleton has, no one can be trusted. Torey can talk to his friend burt needs to stay independent and watch what he says to his friends and other people.
