Part 1: MOON

Reading Check

1. Boredom (Chapter 1: “Your Face Is Not an Organ”)

2. His talent at games (Chapter 2: “Impact”)

3. A gray wool dress (Chapter 3: “Juice”)

4. Quendy’s lesion (Chapter 4: “The Nose Grid”)

5. Touches a device to their necks (Chapter 5: “The Moon Is in the House of Boring”)

Short Answer

1. Titus thinks that space is too silent and feels old. He believes traveling through space without his friends to fill the silence with noise would be intolerable. (Chapter 1: “Your Face Is Not an Organ”)

2. Violet tells the others she believes the nose and cheeks make a grid across a person’s face, and the farther a lesion is from the center of that grid, the less noticeable it is. Quendy’s is on her forehead, so Violet explains that it frames her face rather than distracting from it. (Chapter 4: “The Nose Grid”)

3. They can’t find anything that they want to buy, but they feel the need to buy things anyway. Marty orders a shirt online, but he doesn’t like the shirt.

4. Titus complains that both the moon and Mars are boring, which Violet finds to be a ridiculous claim.
