    Brief Summary Of The Novel 'Boy21' By Matthew Quick

    The protagonists of the book are Finley, Russ, and Erin. The antagonists are the Irish Mob and the bullies at the school they attend. The protagonists are all static characters because they undergo no change. The main antagonist in the story is a 19 year old senior who makes moves at Erin and constantly bullies Finley. The story depicts him dropping Finely as he proceeds to punch Erin in the nose. I can infer that the 19 year old senior thinks that due to his age and size, he can do what he wants while disregarding the feelings of others. The character I feel I relate to the most is Erin because she doesn’t give up and won’t back down from any challenge.…

    Personal Narrative: Octavia As A Student At Arrowsmith High School

    The cool fall air brought light goose bumps to my arms. Still a bit bothered by the cold, I took my long brown hair out of its usual ponytail and let it spread out across my back, warming my in the slightest. I rubbed my arms absentmindedly, looking around for Octavia. We always met here, on the metal bleachers, which rose above the green football field, waiting until the practice was over and Jake could drive us home.

The football team this year is supposed to be amazing, at least, from what I have been told and from what I have seen. Basically every student at Arrowsmith High School’s life revolved around football, or so it seemed. It…
