Our group made predictions that the mother has depression and will die later in the book. We also think when the mother dies it will be really hard on the kids. We predict that the girl that got knocked up will have a hard time raising her baby and will later end up giving it up. We think that there will be series of bad events that keep coming one after another to keep you into the book. For instance one of the bad events will be the death of the mother of the "twin" boys. The "twin" boys will later become bullies to other kids and take a turn for the worse.
