Archetypal characteristics

   I have just finished Kiss&Blog by: Alison Noel.  The book was a great choice for teen reading! As for the character archetypal I think that Sloane, who was Winter's (The Heroes) ex-best friend, she ditched Winter as soon as she became popular and then throughout the book changed from a best friend to an enemy then a friend again, and so on. Not until the end of the book did we find out what side she was really on, and who she was going to stab in the back.  She tended to change her role and personality throughout the book, she is hard to understand and her loyalty was very uncertain. Sloane changes Winter through out the journey. Sloane also made Winter question all of her beliefs. I believe this of Sloane because in the book it states  "the table A sabotage is moving on a lot quicker then I realised (since I had to admit to sometimes being a little preoccupied with Rey, and not as focused on her as i should be), and now she's actually wondering if her enemy just might be them and not me, and so she is actively seeking an emergency backup friend just in case the whole thing blows." (page 160) This is why I think Sloane is the SHAPE SHIFTER.
