This book so far shows that you can tell yourself over and over that you don't need friends and it will be just fine, but when it comes down to it you need a friend to lean on when the times get tough whether at school or at home. And you should appreciate what you have while you have it, because it really upset Melinda when Heather just left her alone.
I think that this book demonsttaits that, though you need freinds, you dont nessesarily have to have a group. Heather thought she did, and it drove her to do very cruel things to Melinda. However, Melinda didntr have a specific group of people, but in the end she had one or two good freinds, and that turned out to be enough.
I think this book is trying to say that you should be smart in high school, and mainly stay true to yourself and eventually you will be recognized for that.
In response to Emily's comment, I don't exactly think that Melinda had a few good friends, people were just beginning to realize what she had gone through. I do think that the books ends at a great spot that leads us to believe that her life is turning around though.
In response to Lauren, I don't believe that one of the ideas the book was trying to get through was to stay smart in high school, but I agree with the rest.
