Pretty Little Secrets. Post #21

I read pages 202 to 214. In these chapters Emily goes with the elves to pull a prank. Everything goes well and Emily's nervousness fades. She has never felt such a rush in her life. Then the police come and tell them to get on the ground. Emily is scared, but the police's voice sounds familular. It's her mom. The police put all the elves in the car, but not Emily. Then the elves put it all together and call Emily a narc. Emily never told her mom about the prank, but her mom tracked her cell phone and followed them. Emily is so mad and sad because now she doesn't have any friends again.

Pretty Little Secrets. Post #18

I read pages 164 to 186. In these chapters, Emily goes to Cassie's party. She is happy because the elves are actually talking to her, and they are having real conversations. Emily finds that she is having a lot of fun. The next day, Emily's mom pulls her out of school to get a manicure, which Emily finds strange because her mom is usually very strict. Her mom asks her about the party and gives Emily a new iPhone. She wants Emily to record the elves emitting they are stealing things. Emily agrees to it but doesn't really want to do it. Later, Emily goes to work as Santa and the elves don't want to work. Emily has to become an insider with them, so she tell her manager there are bedbugs and the mall got shut down for the rest of the day. Cassie and the elves ask Emily to hang out with them.

Pretty Little Secrets. Post #17

I read page 151 to 163. In these chapters, Emily's mom lets her go to a party, which surprises Emily because her mom is usually super strict. The party is at Cassie's house. Emily is nervous because she usually doesn't hang out with the cool people. She remembers that Cassie use to be Ali's field hockey friend, and Emily went to one of Cassie's parties with Ali in seventh grade, but she had a horrible time because she was left out. Emily shows up at the party and feels left out again. Then Cassie asks Emily who she is, which makes Emily feel worse. She tells Cassie she is Santa at the mall. Suddenly Cassie and all of her friends invite Emily to sit with them. Emily finally feels part of the cool crowd.
