What are yor felings about the situation?

DISAPPEARANCE
      My book, is written by Jude Watson. So far, my book is about a girl who went to a restraunt with her cousin, her cousins girlfriend, and a few of their friends. The boys, who were at the restraunt, began to get into a little argument, that led to diving off the deck of the restraunt. When tthe boy named Dylan dived off, he felt a body wile he was in the ocean. Now, when Gracies dad comes to meet her, things start becoming scay for Gracie. (Her dad left her since she was a little girl, and her mom died.) She begins to have visions, which no one believes her about. Also, she thinks that they connect to her dad, in a way. Now, we will have to find out to see if Gracie, and her dads realationship, is connected to the dead body!

     "I was afraid I'd turn you into me," he says. ..."Some mornings I could not get out of bed," he says. I thought- it's happening to me. I'm going to ruin Gracies life. She'll be better off without me."     pg.29
      Gracies dad, feels:
  • regretful
  • sorry
  • remorsful
I think this because he wishes that he could have visited Gracie, and her cousin, and aunt more often. He regrets that he was never there for them. Also, he feels sorry for Gracie, becuase she lost her mom, and now she also does not have a dad with her, and he didn't do anything about it. Also, in the begining of the book, they mentioned that her dad never cared, and was rude. This also shows now, he wants to make a change, and do something, and he rues what he did in the past.

Our antagonist is our vilian

Chapter 1- is
Pg. 1-5
A girl, who is so far not given a name, is in a dark room. She is alone and does not know where she is. She does not remember her  name or any of her friends or family members. She gingerly walks towards a bright light and sees images of items circulating around her. There is a bracelet, a spoon, a pair of socks, hairclips, a handbag, and a few more items. Now, she is expected to meet up with someone named Gabriel, but she does not know this person...

Protagonist VS. Antagonist
Pg. 6-13 The Sweatshirt

The protagonist in The EVERAFTER is Madison Stanton. She is the protagonist, because when she went back in time, she tried to fix her problems, with the items that she lost. In this chapter, she lost a red sweatshirt. This belonged to a boy, and she found it and decided to return in back to him. This is all happening by the real living Madison. Therfore thee are two Madisons, one is dead, and the other is alive. The dead Madison, knows what is going to happen, and tries to stop it, because she knows that the real Madison is going to make the wrong move. Suddenly, the dead Maddy becomes the real Maddy. She knows that a girl named Dana is going to steal the read sweatshirt from her, and this is how it did go missing. Therfore, she did not get it back.


The antagonist in the book, would have to be the living maddison's death. The death of her, caused her to not move when she was at the setting of the art class. An excert from page 6, is I tried to remember what it was like to have a body since I didn't have one. Also, she thought that she was in a bad place, when the setting was descibed as dark and lonely. Madison,died because she did something bad with all of those items. The death of her, could have been the protagonist however when the dead Madison became the real Madison, everything that already happened, happened again, meaning she could not give the sweatshirt back to the boy.
