Structure

 The structure of the book SPEAK is in a journal type book from Melinda's point of view.

There is little dialogue and lots of characterization. Each "chapter" is about one specific thing. For example, on pg 91, the chapter is called DARK ART. That chapter is all about the depression that her Art teacher is going through. I think that the structure of this book is like that to show how a girl with problems feels and what she is doing to help herself. 

Why do YOU think that the author wrote the book the way it is written?

Does it make you wanna read on??
