Can't. Stop. Reading.

   Hello everyone, hope everything is going well. Now today is going to another book blog. This blog is going to be about the book Forget Me by K.A. Harrington. By reading the title you probably think this book is sad, or dramatic. But actually the genre of this book is mystery, which is one of my new favorite genre. Basically this book is about a girl named Morgan who just lost her boyfriend Flynn in a hit-and-run accident. Her friend, Toni, tries to cheer her up by telling Morgan to post a goodbye message for Flynn on FriendShare (basically a Facebook). Morgan agrees to do it and when she put a picture of him on the post it says "Is this Evan Murphy?" Confused, Morgan looks at a picture of Evan and he looks exactly like Flynn. What does this mean? Is Flynn hiding something? Did he lie about his death? After that she starts getting suspicious about his death and tries to uncover what actually happened. You want to know what happenes next? Read the book to find out (hehehe)! Anyway this blog is going to be about the conflicts Morgan had internally and externally, so let's get started.
   Let's table about internal first. In case you don't know what internal conflict are, it is the problems that are going on inside your head or your emotions. And Morgon defiantly had internal problems. One of the, being her boyfriend dying from a hit-and-run accident. It's obvious that someone can have emotional problems about someone you love had just died. Morgan's main internal problem is moving on. This can also happen when someone break up with you. You feel as if you've lost a part of yourself, you feel empty when having a missing piece that someone took away. Even though Morgan and Flynn had just been dating each other for about two months she still feels sad about it. Throughout the book Morgan always has memories of Flynn. He was always in the back of her head, mostly because she was trying to discover the truth about Flynn and his death. When they first meet, when they would talk, when they hung out ect. For example, on page 130 it says "Thinking about Flynn, the day we met, when the lies began." Clearly this means that Morgan still thinks about him and how hurt she is that he's gone, but she's not physically hurt she's emotional hurt, which is internally. And now external.
   The external conflict Morgan had in the book was her town, River's End. River's End is a dying town in the book. Stores, companies, and entertainment places being closed. Even homes for sale are being abandoned because so many people have left. Also, a lot of jobs are being lost. All of this is happening because of one company, that shut down a few years ago. Most of the people in town including Morgan's parents work there and when the company shut down everything started to crumble. Not many people could find jobs, but luckily Morgan's parents had jobs. The problem was that Morgan's mom had two jobs and her dad, one, both work long hours, so they can pay the bills. Since there working for long hours they're not at home as often, Morgan usually eats dinner alone, which does feel lonely. Also, because they work for long hours, they're being seperated. What I mean is they don't have time to talk to Morgan or If Morgan wants to talk go them, they're losing each other's trust and reliability. For example, on page 197 Morgan says "My parents were out. I hated this rift forming between us." This proves that the relationship between Morgan and her parents isn't strong and it's getting weaker.
   There we go, that was my book blog about the internal and external conflicts that were in the book Forget Me by K.A. Harrington. This book is truly one of my favorites. To me, it was the best mystery book I've ever read. My favorite part was the ending, so epic, it felt like that part was from a movie. Anyways I hope you enjoyed reading this blog and might give this book a little read. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as I did.
