2)Quotes & Responses/Reactions
-"This way chang means 'long', mean mean 'sleep'. Long sleep. Now you understand?" (308)
This caught me off guard at first but now I see that it was foreshadowing Kwan's death
-"But if I do, maybe he'll assume too much, think that I'm forgiving him. Or admitting that I ned him"(311).
This is when Olivia is in bed with Simon. I think they should get back together but she's too stubborn.
-"I was Miss Banner and you were Nunumu, and forever you'll be loyal and so will I"(389).
This put the pieces together of Kwan's stories and who the people were in them.
3)Questions for Discussion
-Is Kwan actually dead?
-Elza is Olivia's mom???
