Pick up the books and find them. That was the intention of the assignment.
If you have a Kindle, you can download the book from Amazon. That way you don’t have to wait at all to have the book in your hands.
“I want to know what to say to keep everybody off my back. Maybe there’s a one word, one sentence. Hell, I’ll even sing a song if I have to. There was that one song from when I was a kid about the monkeys jumping on the bed. I’ll change the words. “Ten little monkeys jumpin’ on my back. I pushed them off ‘cause they didn’t know jack. I smoked up some weed to get me some slack-here’s more monkeys jumpin’ on my back.” (page 65)
“I want to go someplace where nobody can find me. Not even me.” (page 95)
“I want to not be afraid.” (page 126)
“I remember when I belived what people told me. I don’t remember what you call that.” (page 145)
“I want a day off—from everything.” (page 155)
“I want all the questions to stop. I want more answers.” (page 158)
“I want to be as far away from me as I can get.” (page 180)
“I remember my favorite song when I was a little kid. Puff the Magic Dragon. I wanted to be the boy in the song. Instead I ended up being Puff—without the magic.” (page 190)
“I want to know what it’s like to wake up in the morning and be glad I did.” (page 44)
