I have started reading a new book called "Eleanor & Park". So far the book is about a red-head girl named Eleanor and a boy named Park. Eleanor is new to the school Park goes to, and everyone is making fun of her on the bus the first day she got there. In the book Park says, "With crazy hair, bright red on top of curly. And she was dressed like... like she wanted people to look at her. Or maybe like she didn't get what a mess she was. She had on a plaid shirt, a man's shirt, with half a dozen weird necklaces hanging around her neck and scarves wrapped around her wrists." This explains that Park thinks that she looks weird, and that the girls are making fun of her because of the way she dresses. It's like he's trying to say that Eleanor doesn't "fit in" with everyone else. Eleanor was looking for any empty seat that she could sit in. No one would share with her. The bus driver kept telling her to sit down, but since she couldn't find a seat she didn't know where. So Park just patted the seat, kinda letting her know that she could sit there next to him. So Eleanor sat down next to him, when school was over she sat with him again. And she just continued sitting with him before school, and after school.
Things might change, by Eleanor sitting next to Park. I think things could change because since Eleanor is new to the school, everyone will be talking about her and saying stuff. People might start rumors about her. They could say that probably Park has a crush on her or something, because he let her sit next to him. Also since she's been sitting next to him from the first time that he let her they could maybe start talking. Then if they do start talking they might get to know each other better, and maybe they might like each other.
