Vocabulary in Shattering Glass

Thus far, I have read five chapters in Shattering Glass by Gail Giles. The book has been very thorough and overall, a very good read. The vocabulary has been middle to high-level difficulty in my opinion. It has been enjoyable to read up to this point and has an interesting and relatable plot which makes a great book.

An example of high-level vocab in this book is, "He tugged one of the flapping sheets of notebook paper hanging haphazardly from Coop's binder" (Giles 26). The vocabulary word in this sentence is haphazardly. Upon looking this word up, I now know that it means marked by a lack of plan, order, or direction. This is a helpful word and I will now start to use it in many situations. For example, I could use haphazardly to describe something that is unorganized.
