the sentence i chose to talk over in my group is  when Mary Lou is talking to Beth Ann about her boyfreind Derek. the sentence is when Beth Ann is yelling at Mary Lou.”I was NOT hanging all over Derek- beleive me, I don’t have to do that. And Derek is NOT a jerk- don’t shake your head, Iknow that’s what you were going to say.” and she goes on like that. I chose that sentence because it shows how they broke their freindship and how Beth Ann was trying to pretend that she was better than Mary Lou.

1. Beth Ann’s new behavior since her boyfreind is that she thinks she is a princess and she is not telling Mary lou her date. Mary Lou doesn’t like how she’s acting and is a bit jealous at first.

2.Mary Lou reats to Mr.Furtz death by being very questioning. she starts asking herself if Zues is up in the sky assocciating with all the other gods wondering if she were to die rite that second. 

So far in the book , the guy Mary Lou used to like keeps showing up in her neighborhood for absolutly no reason.And Mary Lous’ freind, Beth Ann, found a boyfreind and is going on a lot of dates with him and Mry Lou is starting to get jealous.Carl Ray FINALY found a job, but his boss, Mr. Furtz, died(bummer).

I can realy relate to Mary Lou, I think she is annoyed with her guest and it’s true they can get annoying. I think she is annoyed with Carl Ray staying there because he kept on eating a lot and taking all of the food first. Her mom was especialy annoyed with him because he ate so much and left a little.
