The title of this book is self explainatory. only one word is used for the title and its capitalization of each letter even has a meaning. To me, the title tells me that characrers in this novel really must lie alot. the main character in the novel is a girl called Micha and she is a BIG LIAR who dont care about the level of impact her lies have on others around her. She is downright misleading and deceptive. Micha also has the ability to lie, get caught, and use another lie to cover the first to make you think she didnt completely lie and so forth. for example, she was exposed she eas exposed for pretending to be a girl and she immediately to a friend that she was born a hemarphrodite. she will do anyhting to get out of being caught lying. One phrase in the book i like is when she says" I wont lie",(to the reader). Seems she is trying to convince us to confuse the reader. Another phrase is, "the Greats". She explained how she used a mnumonic devise to remember her great aunt and Great grandmother. Another phrase she used is "my next big lie". Shes saying that she will continue to lie throughout the book .Also in the book she states that one of her friends said that another friend tells her everthing.Micha immediately reconizes that people dont tell everthing. The text in this book does jump around but is good for building lots of suspence to keep the reader reading just as planneed.
1. Micha and Zach were a couple. false
2.Everyone in the school koows Micha is a big liar. True
3.Micha was born a boy False
4.Tayshawn kept Michas secret of his/her sex. False
5.Micha's mom and dad met in France. True
A lie, or the truth,
always has an effect,
The way we view life,
in any aspect,
Yet a lie will lead to nowhere in life,
The truth will set you free to fly

what and how i read
I remember when I was in the second grade trying to figure out what type of books intrested me,catching my attention to the point where i`d toon out the world around me.I remember the time when i found out what type of books i like to read.. Sitting in class, not paying attention to the lecture, and missing out on what the teacher was teaching that day. I found out that i love reading things that humor me.when i was a child i always like to laugh or keep people around me laughing but found that to be distracting to others at times. When i became a teenager i realized that it was a time for laughter and a time not for laughter, but it had become therapudic but spontaneous. Later i discovered that i can read and continue to laugh in my head which had the same effect.If its left up to me i would only read things that humor me but in the real world i obviously have to read lots of things.I guess you can say that i read what i have to, otherwise i would choose to read the comics out of the newspaper.I read about on the same level in or out of school. Not the type of person to just read for entertainment but for essential reasons mostly. I prerferr to read out loud on the couch with my 3 children around looking at the pictures and asking me questions as we go. Intervention did not affect my reading at all i read in a way that is most useful for me. The only problem i run into while reading is when something comes up that requires my undivided attention.Most say that listening to me read feels as is there is a movie behind what i read and everyone wants to watch. That made me realize that i can grasp your attention. the way i read tells a litttle about my character, i dont read to gain information as much as i probably should i learn a great deal hands on.
