I learned that no matter how much of a jock Cal tries to be he will always be a sweet guy, even if he different with his friends. Cal is working so hard to help Gretchen not just with trying to get her away from her father, but also so she can have fun in her life since she doesn't get that much.
I rediscovered that there are horrible people in the world who don't truly care about their kids. This book really gives insight on that too with Gretchen. The police should be more aware of this kind of stuff too.
I was surprised when Lola walked up to Cal and asked for a ride home. It surprised me because she was so into Tom and now all of a sudden she is into Cal. I mean she was doing anything she could to be with Tom.
I'm beginning to wonder if Cal is getting feelings for Gretchen. He spends so much time with her and she is always on his mind. He wants to do whatever he can to help her even if it means not spending as much time with his own friends.
I was disturbed when Gretchen started talking about her dad making Helga kill her own baby. What I mean by this is the detail that was put into describing the incident, like the baby splashing.
I was confused when Cal called the cops. I know he wants to help Gretchen but he couldn't give out any personal information so it wasn't much help.
I was interested when Cal went up to Gretchen when the other boys were making fun of her. I thought it was really sweet and showed his true character in the book.
