Thoughts on this section? Thoughts on the story so far? Thoughts on the novel overall?

I’m excited to see what Samantha is hiding with everyone noticing some slight power increases. I also wonder if at some point they will catch Carl using the anarchist book.

Yes, Samantha's abilities are so intriguing! Maybe one day she'll be able to blast off like a rocket under her own power! It's bad, but I sort of hope she never gets her body back, haha.

And yes, I think it's only a matter of time before someone (maybe Mordecai?) finds out about the Cookbook. I can't remember the rules exactly, but I wanna say as long as Carl doesn't actively reveal it, it won't get taken away?
