conflict in the book is revolved around the ted bundy murders

the argument in the last murder is how Ted bundy murders his victims. Murder in itself is a conflict. But his second and third murder were by brutally beating his victims to a pulp :) .

pretty good book. Wish there was more detailed info.

I started reading a short book about the zodiac killer. I was interested in learning more because i want to be a crime scene phycologist. I also heard they recently found him after he died.

In my new book, there is a lot of Character VS Character. Araragi the main character, and Senjougahara the next main character fight a lot. She almost killed Araragi within meeting him. They are constantly fighting each other, which surprises me considering that Senjo weighs close to nothing due to sickness.

i finished the book. Blood Ninja by Nick lake. I have 0 pages left. Planning on starting a new book. Just forgot to bring one today.

Imagery in this last part of the book was mainly the word traitor. Almost every page had the word traitor on it really showing how they all betrayed each other in the end. Also the example of how Taros blood was dripping off the floor, leaving a trail showing rights where they were heading.

trying to kill lord oda, the team encountered some issues. In the process, Heiko died, and shusaku. The word choice was very straight forward in a way. "And he died" was the last sentence on page 324. And that was all about Shusakus death.

"Then little Katawaba coughed and shook in his fathers arms." (274)
Taro had killed Little Katawaba in the battle to the death. Both were beaten up good with sword wounds. But as the battle ended, Taro went and turned him into a vampire, making sure he didn't die.

The section that i read was very interesting. I think that the main motif of the book would be suffering and pain. Little Katawaba tried to kill Taro with the sun, locking him in a rice store, in which sunlight would slowly crack through the walls. But taro ended up being immune to the sunlights burning. And because the ninja code is so strict, Little Katawaba has to die.

I believe that the motif in the book so far(205), is that strength isn't only physicality. It is also mentally. Taro had to endure losing his mother, father. And having to learn that Lord Oda killed his family, and tried to kill him. He is the son of Lord Tokugawa. And yet because he was turned, he can not show rage as any of his emotions.

huge twist in the book. In chapter 28 Taro learned that he IS the son of lord Tokugawa. And he was raised by Civilians in Lord Odas territory.

A pattern im noticing is that the small details on Taro's bow keep on getting brought up. And shusuke keeps dismissing them. I know that shusake knows a lot about the bow that Taros father gave him, but whenever it gets brought up, it is dismissed almost immediately.
