The theme of self - discovery is also present. As the relationship between Zoe and the reader develops, both characters often learn more about themselves. Zoe might discover a kinder side of herself, and the reader might learn about their own strength in dealing with difficult people.
Another theme is the power of forgiveness. The reader may choose to forgive Zoe for her bullying, which then leads to a new relationship. It shows that forgiveness can be a powerful tool in mending broken relationships.
One common theme is redemption. Since Zoe is a bully, often the stories revolve around her finding a way to redeem herself in the eyes of the reader. For example, she might realize the error of her ways after a particular event.
