the picture is from the movie Sybil. To the right is her psychologist. To the left is Sybil.

While everyone is in different places with their outside reading, you should have definitely started reading your book at this point. What do you think so far? Is the book interesting or dull, or perhaps somewhere in the middle? Can you relate to the main character so far? Does it help to know that it is a real person rather than a fictional one? What infromation have you learned about this person so far? Do you think you will enjoy the book? In one to two well-written, well-detailed paragraphs, describe your first impressions of the person and the book using these questions as guidelines. Also, make sure to add a picture. . . it can relate to how you feel about the book so far or of the person that the book is about.

I reall enjoy this book so far. I haven't been able to put it down. I can relate to the main character a little bit. She is artisitic, like I am, and loses track of the time and occasiongly blacks out due to multiple personality disorder. We are both artistic. I like to believe I'm more like Viky her exotic personailty. I think it does help to know that this person is real, because then well other's with this illness can look to hers with hope, that they are not alone.

I have learned so far that she has three personalities, Peggy Lou, Peggy Ann, and Vicky. Peggy Lou is always angry she has short blonde dutch hair. Peggy Ann looks sort of like Peggy Lou and is always sad. Vicky is one of those people who loves life. Vicky is from France. I learned that all her different personalities, look different, act different, and even talk different.

Sybil comes to her psych one day, and her psych says hello Sybil. Sybil screams back I'm not Sybil can't you tell I'm Peggy Lou. And the Doctor asks her to describe herself. Peggy Lou says I look nothing like Sybil, and Sybil and I don't even have the same parents. I've learned that Sybil watched her friend get shot and killed accidentally. And that she has a bad memory involving glass and hands coming at her. She also loves her parents. Her mother died. Her personalitles want to help Sybil and they want her to know about them. The Doctor tells Sybil that she has people who take over her body, and Sybil gets scared and runs out of the office. I think the book is very good so far.

My first impression of her was geez! I hope she is alright. Because it is not normal for someone to not remeber large amounts of time. I really look forward to reading the rest of this book.
