Summer Reading Assignment Entry Two-Eleanor and Park

There is a lot that Eleanor and Park want/desire, mainly being each other.  As of now, Eleanor is just trying to be herself. Park's mom is trying to make her fix her hair and wear makeup which she feels is not her. Park is taking Eleanor's sense of being different and started wearing eyeliner. Oddly enough, most people liked it or didn't care at all.  This gave him the boost he needed regardless of his dad's disapproval.  But, like I said before, both Eleanor and Park's main desire is each other.  They want to be with each other without conflict or set backs.  Some themes that are beginning to appear, are being yourself or someone not like everybody else, is totally okay and can be such an amazing thing.    Another theme that is appearing is that secrets can break things apart.  This is used in context of mostly Eleanor. The more secrets she keeps from her family about Park, the faster their relationship could come crumbling down.    The structure of my book is by two perspectives and different sized events.  Each chapter is filled with Eleanor's side of the story and her thoughts, then to Park's, then to Eleanor's, then to Park's, etc until usually, an event occurs and a new chapter begins.  In the book so far, Eleanor's secrets are piling up, as you can see from one of the themes I mentioned. Sooner or later, I predict her mom and step dad will figure our about her boy friend, Park, considering that her siblings have already found out.
