Can someone help me write/find a half-page monologue from the book Speak?

Speak's structure is heavily based on
internal monologue. Because Melinda feels like no one will listen to her, most her
emotions are expressed to us through her thoughts. Some of the book's most powerful
moments are achieved by allowing the reader to feel like they are "in Melinda's head"
through her monologues.


I'm assuming this is for a class
project. While I cannot pick an exact passage for you, I would suggest you look at one
of the following sections:


  • Fizz
    ed

  • The opposite of inspiration is...
    expiration?

  • Rent round
    3

  • Riding
    shotgun

  • Communication
    101

Each of these sections highlights a
different aspect of Melinda's downward spiral into depression. The reader is invited to
share her inner most thoughts and gain insight into what she's going
through.
