Summer blog posts #1 - "After Ever After" *SPOILERS*

Prompt: Pick your 2 favorite parts of the book and describe why you like them.
Pages: FINISHED

     When I was reading After Ever After, I fell in love with multiple parts, and I wanted to cry at some parts.Overall I loved this book,but there were some parts I loved the most. MY first favorite part was when Tad, one of the main characters, showed up the New Jersey state education system and refused to take the state test if it meant it might hold you back a year if you don't pass. My second favorite part of this book was when Jeff, another main character, accepted Tad's middle school diploma at their 8th grade graduation because Tad hap relapsed and had gotten Cancer again, and sadly, died.

     The reason I love it when Tad stands up against the New Jersey education system is because of how brave Tad was. Tad was a boy who could hardly walk and is a person that really only care for himself, it takes a lot of courage to do something like that. The reason I also lot this part in the story is because he did this whole thing for his friend, Jeff. Jeff had brain damage from his cancer treatment and it made math super super hard for him and math was part of the statewide tests.

     The reason I love the part when Jeff accepts Tad's diploma is because Tad and Jeff had been soooooo much and after Tad's death, he had broken down.Tad and Jeff were so close to the point where Jeff thought he could never move on and when he walked up to the stand, he realized that Tad was still with him and that nothing could change that.
