Get It While It's Hot. Or Not.
As always I just read a amazingly good book. I read it in one day, as usual, and it kind of gave me a new perspective on, life. it's called, Get It While It's Hot. Or Not. It's about these four girls who in the eigth grade to be friends till the end. But forever is a long time. the start of their junior year, they find out how much they can handle when the "baby" of the group announces she's four months pregnant. The book starts with that girl seven months pregnant and bed ridden, she can't do anything for herself, her three best friends take shifts every day coming over to help her.
The friends battle love, cutting class, and sex, as they desperately help their friend. Meg, the writer and reporter for the school newspaper, starts to do an article on Teen Sex, inspired by her friend. The school won't publish it, she absolutely has to get this acoss to her peers, but she's told that this isn't the real world, it's high school. Meanwhile the friends find out that the father of their friends baby is HIV-positive. Like it couldn't get anyworse, the mother has decided to give the baby up for adoption, she has already picked the parents. Do they tell the adoptive parents? Is the child even going to be adopted? Well, I'll let you read it.
this book made me think about my friends, and how far we'd go for eachother. What would we do if one of us was in that situation? How would we react? Would we remain friends? I know I'd do what was in my power to help, I know I'd still be friends with them.
This book also makes you realize change, at least it did for me. After everything they've been through no one will be themselves. Things will be different. But you'll always be friends.
Caitlin, Carrington, Jillian, Julia, Ashley, Jessica, Olivia, I love you all, some of you I've known forever, some only a few years, for some of us, our time was cut short. Just know wherever you are, wherever you go in life, even if we end up hating eachother, I will always love you. You all have had this major impact on my life that can't be taken away. Only two of you can read this, I do know this. But no matter, I said it anyways. I love you all.
