I will read and register some of it and then not absorb some other information, so I have to keep going back and rereading. Very specific incidents do not register; I have apparently read certain pages, but I just did not take in the information on them the first time around.
And for some reason, this just keeps happening over and over and over again.
"The Cut Out Girl..."

Most recently, I went backwards after I read page 122, where it gave the date that the girl's parents were arrested. I went back to find out if they were arrested before or after the mother's birthday because she wrote a birthday letter to her mother.
When I went back, I found an incident in which she told a friend that she was in hiding and the friend told her mother and then the mother told the foster mother and then she got punished and sent to bed without dinner, and I didn't even remember that at all, even though I must have read it. I still remembered what happened in the next section, when the police came to the foster parents' house.
