How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
I feel kind of dizzy, so I make my way back to bed because if I'm dreaming, bed is the place, right? And I wait to wake up. But I don't because I already am. (1.8)
This is the stuff that nightmares are made of. Bobby tries to go back to bed because surely the mirror is telling lies, but unfortunately, that fixes nothing. He's really stuck in this invisible state.
Quote #2
Mostly I like books that have a world I can get into. And I guess that's because books have always been so much more interesting than my life. Until today. (2.31)
Bobby used to read books to escape to more fascinating worlds, but now, though, Bobby finds that his life is way more interesting than most books that he's read. And that's not necessarily a good thing.
Quote #3
Ten seconds. Ten seconds ago I was asleep, arguing with the Skipper and Mary Ann about what to have for dinner. Now I'm sitting up, staring. At the TV. I'm having… a hard time… breathing. The reporter keeps talking. (4.49)
Your life can change irrevocably in just a few seconds. For poor Bobby, that happens twice in just twenty-four hours. First, he wakes up and finds out that he's invisible, and then he wakes up again after a nap and finds out that his parents have gotten into a car accident. The kid can't catch a break.
