That Summer blog #3

As I'm almost nearing the end of my book That Summer by Sarah Dessen Haven is heading towards a weird kind of breakdown. With her sister Ashley's wedding down to single digits it's put a lot of stress on her. She always kind of kept to herself when Ashley would say something mean and horrible to her or about her but there was something that just made Haven kind of go off like a time bomb ready to explode in a matter of seconds.
After getting a shoe thrown at her at work from a rude customer the timer that was connected to that bomb had just ran out and Haven lost it. Chasing after the lady and throwing the shoe back at her causing her to get fired I think that the situation that shes in made her grow a little bit because in the beginning of the book she seemed like the person who just took every bodies abuse and just dealt with it instead of sticking up for herself. But now she actually speaks her mind because she is fed up with the way people treat her. Another thing is is that she was self concious about her body {height} because she was almost 6 foot and shes finally growing into her body and starting to be comfortable with it.
