She’d never send them- she’d rather die than hurt anyone’s feelings-but it’s a relief to let loose on her power-hungry English Teacher or credit-stealing classmate.

Sadie’s most vehement words “You’re attention starved and self-obsessed and unbearably vain” - are directed at Julius Gong, her cocaptain, whose arrogance and competitive streak have always infuriated her.
