Well, a total transition has occurred in Mishna's life in a good way of course. For once in her life the blame has been put on her little sister Anora instead of her. Not to mention her father found a new girlfriend who's extremely nice and has a son who's not very social but more into technology. His girlfriend also doesn't give too much attention to Anora like every body else. Lastly, she invited them to go skiing.

As soon as Mishna became popular in her neighborhood,she has to change schools for a better education. The problem is she doesn't fit in. Not to mention her neighborhood friends began to find her strange from acting like the kids at her new school. She then does so much to just get any type of attention. She lies about having stuff the rich kids have, and eat paste in class so the whole class would have eyes on her.

Eden is finished with The Kite Runner
Know that I've completed the book, I look back at how Amir was able to be good again after his wrong. As for Sohrab, He was able to start a new path with his new family(G. Taheri, Soraya, Jamila, and Amir)A main event was when Amir rescued Sohrab from Assef. Although Amir was brutally hurt, Sohrab used his sling shot to blind Assef. They were able to escape and face other problems in the process of recovery.

This book has really gotten intense. The amazing thing about The Kite Runner is that every character is connected to other characters. it's like this cycle with peaces to a puzzle. The jaw dropping incident in chapter 22 revealing the man in the shades was Assef. It make perfect sense but was so surprising. Not to mention Baba's lie about Hassan, who's actually his son. Amir realizes he isn't the only one who's wrong

This book is not what I thought it would be. In fact, even better. I love how living in Fremont, California isolates Baba to his past, but they have actually become closer because all they have is each other. That is until Soraya comes along. Soraya and Amir have become very close to the point of their marriage. This makes Baba extremely happy. But Baba has lung cancer and could possibly die with in a month or so.

Eden is on page 81 of 371 of The Kite Runner
This book has so much trauma and emotional sadness. The characters Amir and Hassan are so called friends but Hassan is Amir's servant. As well as Hassan's dad Ali as Amir's father Baba's servants. Hassan is a Hazara and Amir is a Pashtun. These conflicting tribes they're from create an impediment in between their relationship. significant events are Amir's kite competition he won, Hassan being harassed by Assef.

By reading 23, I already have an idea of how goofy this book is. The author really has a great sense of humor. Not to mention her unusual childhood of being teased and trying to cough up the guts and stand up like her father taught her. The only problem is she knows to stand up for herself, but she just can't do it. The style of this book is a hip type of vibe. I like this book of comedy through the author's view.

This book is a story of mystery and going to the highest limits for love. The character Bassanio loves Portia who lives in Belmont. The catch is her father accepts the man who pics from a choice of three items. One made of gold, another of silver, etc... The right one is the one one with Portia's picture in it. The man who chooses the correct one wins Portia. The men who choose the wrong one shall not ever marry.

As I'm slowly starting to reach the end of the book, I start to see Precious's life come together. Her love for Abdul is super strong and she hopes he'll grow up to be smart. The fact that she has HIV doesn't make things any easier but she realizes she isn't alone, that there's a community group that's there to support eachother. Although she looks back at her past troubles, she looks towards the future in her life

Push is really a touching, progressive, and sad story. Precious has begun to work on her reading as well as writing. What I love about her is her sense of happiness even when her life seems dreadful. She finally ad her baby Abdul. She makes plans to treat him well and teach him the alphabet. Not only that but to give him a better mother son relationship than her parents gave her. She finds the good throughout the bad

As I slowly go through this book, I like the hope Precious has when she goes to an alternative school. The traumatizing situations she faces with her father and mother don't allow her to give up. The fact that she loves going to school and making progress with reading and building relationships on the way is an uplifting part of her story. Even though she knows the abusive behavior of her parents will still continue

Eden is finished with Night
Know that I've finished this book, I realize the perspective of someone in life threatening situations vs. every day life. People who where struggling to hang on to life did every thing they could no matter what cost. Even Elie Wiesel admitted that he thought free at lat when his father died. There was even an incident where a son killed his father for a ration of bread. The freeing of the Jews end with sad freedom

Night

Eden
Eden is on page 90 of 120 of Night
As I read this book I come to a realization that tragic things like genocide really did happen. Wiesel's story is an importance of survival, struggle, and sadness. The separation of his family is such a key event because he knew he would never see him again. Not to mention the change from place to place, But what still remains the same is the amount of abuse, neglect, and tiring work that's expected to be done.

Coming back to this book, I feel that it's still a little explicit. I like how the book shows the struggle she has been through after introducing her father, mother, and child. So far she's got the chance to go to an alternative school because she got kicked out of her other one for getting pregnant. The narration she uses is very curious. She day dreams about being famous, Bringing her to happier state of mind.

so far, Elise's life has totally changed. The fact that someone is pretending to be her online and righting horrible things about her has every one thinking that she did it. But she seems to be chill about it and not really worry too much. Her full focus is Start.She has opportunities coming her way because she is getting even better at DJing. The crazy thing is that Pippa found out about her relationship with Char.
