Predictions for My book

My book Get Well Soon by Julie Halpern is about a girl who is currently living in a mental hospital. I currently dont know her name because its from her point of view. So far, she is writing to her friends, Tracy and Teresa about her experience so far. She is frustrated because she is at a level 2 of self harm, which means she could commit suicide. Because of this, doctors are unable to give her any objects, as she might hurt herself but she believes she is fine. A question I have is , why was she sent to this mental institution?  Some predictions I have for the future is that she will have the trust to be given objects. Maybe she will meet someone there to help her with her problems.

Fahrenheit 451

In Fahrenheit 451, the main character Guy Montag is a fireman that burns books for a living. When he meets Clarisse McClellan, who tells him about the past which was completely different. He then  started to think more about his life and society. When he is faced with a problem about reading a book he offers his wife, Mildred to start at the beginning. A prediction I have is that he will rebel and find out about society. Mildred can either turn him in or "rebel" with him even though their relationship is not perfect. Captain Beatty will not be happy and could possibly burn him with the books. Maybe he will become a leader?
