The book Opposite of Always is a very emotional book. Although, this book always has me on the edge of my seat. I can never get bored with this book. There is a quote that stuck out to me so far, it says ¨all the time traveled in the world can´t save the people you love.¨ This quote really explains the tone of the book.

The Moment You Realize You´re Growing Up- Getting Older by Billie Eilish
This song represents the feeling of realizing that you are actually growing up. I feel like this song can relate to anyone in high school because high school is a time in life where you should enjoy every moment because it will go away very fast. https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/billieeilish/gettingolder.html
I’m getting older, I’ve got more on my shoulders
But I’m getting better at admitting when I’m wrong
I’m happier than ever, at least that’s my endeavor
This verse is a very important part of the song because growing up comes with a lot of pressure and there is a lot of responsibilities that you need to take care of. The realization of growing up is a very scary thing because you’re not going to be that little kid on the playground throwing snowballs to each other with no stress in life anymore.
Why I dropped the book “After”
The summary of the book caught my attention at first… Although, ever since I began the book, I was starting to get lost. I did not really understand what was going on. I just decided to drop the book because I couldn’t see myself get back on track.
