In the book Speak BY Laurie Halse Anderson, Melinda Sordino from Syracuse New York ,started out Her freshman year as having a dark, and tough, time in high school. By calling the cops at the end of summer party screws up her freshman year of high school. Melinda starts freshman year with a secret that keeps her friends from talking to her. While no one knows her secret, she must tell someone. Melinda has a hard time in school with grades and teachers. Melinda stops caring about what she looks like and how she acts or how she dresses. She doesn't feel safe out in the open world. Melinda would rather be alone. I feel this book opens up minds about a new high school experience. Melinda starts to look out, and stand up for herself. This book speak has a good lesson about peer pressure and what it can do to you. And make you do.
