Lane Response 1 to sarah's first response to catlin.

I agree with both of you about the hurricane being used to build suspense but sarah said that she was asking herself if someone was going to die or fall off the raft. I think that the tracking of the storm ketp us wondering when and how Rual was going to die not if. I think that everyone know his companions were going to die just from the title or the back of the book. Then after Raul didn't fall of the raft or drown during the hurricane it became even more suspenseful becasue you knew he had to die you just didn't know how or whe it would happen.
