The Girl Who Fell From the Sky #3

Throughout the book, Rachel constantly tells herself she is the new girl. Rachel feels uncomfortable at her grandma's house. She can't make any friends at school. The black girls don't like Rachel because she has bright blue eyes and is light skinned, so she attracts guys attention. Rachel keeps to herself in the beginning of the book. Whenever she gets angry, or upset she holds in her feelings. She says she has a blue bottle inside of her and all her emotions get put in it. As I read further I noticed a character change in Rachel. On pg.151, Rachel comes home late and her grandma tells her not to be hoing herself around like her mom. Rachel finally gets the courage to let her emotions out, and says," You're a damn lie- that newspaper story proves it. My mom didn't do a damn thing!" In the beginning of the story, Rachel would have never done this.
