Hey so I have a song I am doing for this book... its a project but I chose In The Arms Of An Angle by Sarah Mclaughan. I chose this one because it was a sad song and so was the book and it reminds me of how Mattie is trying to get refuge from the Fever and she is just waiting for it all to be over to change her ways to respect her mother because she lost so much and she is more mature. Hope I helped I'm only in like 8 grade and I have a project like this due tomorrow so yeah don't judge me haha
