A Long Way Down 2:

 As I have predicted before Jess was the one who has been hiding something. She was hiding from the others that her and her parents don't have the best relationship due to her older sister, Jen's, disappearance. Her mother began to blame Jess for stealing a pair of earnings that had once belonged to Jen. We didn't find any of this out until Jess arranged a huge get together with everyone and their families to talk about their suicidal thoughts and was hoping that each family/friends would help out. The get together was a huge mistake, and everyone was fighting with each other and they weren't trying to discuss help about the suicidal thoughts. Although everyone was arguing and not getting along, this is one of the most important events in the book. Although there was arguing Maureen helped Jess's family have hope that Jen still might be alive. Another important scene would be when the four of them met up on Valentine's day on the roof, and they saw the man jump. I think that really changed their thoughts about suicide and how you can get help by just talking to friends.
