Tone is the writer or speakers attitude towards a subject. Throughout the story, Melinda is always depressed and never in the mood for anything. She always isolated herself from the world and is an outcast in school. Shes been through so many things, but she won't say what happened. On page 28 paragraph 2, "You don't understand...I can't even look at that part of myself..." People judge her for calling the cops during the summer party, but they don't even know the entire story. Her tone is also angry towards the secret she had been keeping in. On page 51 paragraph 2, "I want to confess over the guilt and mistake and anger to someone else." The book is written in Melinda's point of view. Melinda's always used to have a negative view on everything. But in the end, she starts to face her problems.
