Outside reading

In chapter three of lock and key Ruby starts her new school. Rubys new school is a private school and it is also the same school that Jamie went to when he was her age. Ruby is really nervous about starting school because it is the middle of the semester and she is used to going to a public school not a private school. Ruby is afraid of people finding out that she lives with her sister and not her mother and having to explain her living situation to others. She doesn't want people to treat her differently if they do find out. She just wants to be a normal teenager and fit in with the crowd. But to her surprise her first day at the new school actually goes pretty well. She ends up making friends with a boy named Nate who lives in her neighborhood and a girl named Olivia who ironically used to go to her old school and that made he feel better. Ruby now feels hopefully about going to this new school and she isn't as worried as she was before.
