Emily’s comments from the PHS HWOC group.

I would feel uncomfortable at first with my new surroundings and meeting new people but once you get used to it, I don't think it won't be as bad.

Yes because there is still racism and discrimination against African Americans today and I think one of the main themes of this book was to not judge someone by their skin color.

I think it was a great book and everyone can definitely learn something from it.

I think The Help causes controversy depending on a person's view on slavery and the treatment of colored people. Although we live in a changing world where racism isn't as bad as it was during this book's time period, many people today still act differently to people with colored skin.

I am most excited about the 5th wave because science fiction is fun to read about and many people recommend it.

I don't think so because that's what makes the book interesting and real, and gives you an insight of what life was like for colored people back then.
