Melinda from Speak

Speak By: Laurie Halse Anderson

Why does everyone hates Melinda? Why doesn’t Melinda has any friends? Melinda doesn’t has any friends because, after what happened at the summer party. Melinda is the main character of the book. Ill be talking about Melinda most of the time because it’s all about her.


Melinda is a character in the book called Speak. First day of the school she really
hates the day because bunch of people hate her from the summer party. Every day in school she is like a loner. She is by herself and doesn't have any friends. Melinda can be a good friend only if she even had any friends. She is not mean like other girls. She would stick with them.

I am talking about the janitor closet because she wants to be alone. People are still picking on her because of the summer party she called to cops.So Melinda found a janitor closet; she makes herself be comfortable. She put a poster over the mirror in the janitor closet because she didn't want to look at herself. She doesn't feel good about herself because of the party.
