I love how Bailey is telling all these stories about the city, and how people are eating them up. Bailey seems to have a knack for trouble that can get wrapped up in charisma or other benefits, in this case more customers in the store, which makes it so he doesn't get caught.

Chapter 14 felt incredibly short compared to the other chapters.  I find Maya Angelou’s writing to be incredibly boring but I think this chapter was the best.  I wonder how people will react when Maya stops talking to anyone but Bailey, she writes that they understand now but how will they react then?  She does say she is “unwilling” to talk which doesn’t quite read that she only speaks to Bailey.

I found it funny how people weren't noticing Bailey's sarcasm.

This chapter was shorter than normal but still interesting. I'm happy that Maya is back home though I wish the circumstances were better. My question would have to be does Momma even know what happened? Anyway I also love how Bailey is dramatizing his experience in St. Louis. Overall, this was a pretty good chapter and I hope Maya can get used to the life she once had in Stamps.

I like how Bailey was telling the stories once he and Maya got back home. It was nice how Bailey would speak of the positives even though some were lies.

I think it's very interesting how after less than a year people you used to know feel like strangers. A question I have is, do the people of stamps stop feeling like strangers at some point?

the lies that bailey told were funny and one question i have is how long did it take people to realize he was lying

I felt that in chapter 15 it was more directed towards sister flowers and how she went to her mothers along with Marguerite.

chapter 15 is more  focused on how the main character went with  Marg to her mothers house. Chapter 16 is more it started with talking to ms. Viola. Then they ate dinner at a restaurant. (Behr)

I didn't realize how religious momma was. It seems ridiculous to me to resort to physical punishment for anything, and this was just for saying, "by the way." Ms. Flower seems really nice, but I think she's just a little bit self entitled in the way she thinks she can "fix" Maya.

I was very surprised when Momma got mad at Marguerite just for saying "by the way." It is unreasonable for Marguerite's name to be changed by her employer. That name was given to her and she should have the right to keep it.

Did the poetry book that Sister Flowers gave Marguerite spark her interest in poetry?

I think Ms. Flowers has good intentions but I don't think she should force Maya to speak.

Chapter 15, I thought the chapter was interesting. I'm still confused how saying "by the way" is some offense to Christ? I also wanna know why Mrs. Flowers wants to help Maya start talking again. Chapter 16, Maya's feelings towards Mrs. Cullinan is interesting. The fact she thinks the woman has no organs and isn't the most attractive woman in the bunch is very comedic. She's also annoying and Mary isn't Maya's name but she only calls her that because it's shorter. She's rude and disrespectful. I also love the way Maya got herself fired.

I really didn’t like that Mama just took off Maya’s clothes like that.  Considering what she had been through wouldn’t she have realized that that would be triggering for Maya??  I wasn’t able to follow chapter 16 very well but from what I heard things happened really fast and were confusing.  I also thought it was really interesting that Mama got angry when Maya said “by the way”.  I’m not religious and I’ve never really read the Bible (although I went to church school for a while) so that was really strange to me that she got that upset at the phrase “by the way”.

i've grown up in the church and i never knew that "by the way" was a way to say god. i didn't know that momma was that religious

I was confused on the part where it said that "by the way" was something that had to do with religion.

I was very confused as to why she used physical punishment on Maya simply for saying by the way. -KB
