“Lately I have begun to reel deserted. I am surrounded by too great a void. I never used to feel like this,”

This quote resonates with me becuase sometimes I feel like this too but usually I can get out of it with help from my friends and family. But I still find this relatable!

When Anne talked about her fear when somebody was at the door i felt sympathetic to her because I understand her fears during that and how she felt anxiety.

When Anne talks about her treatment being different depending on the day and how she gets treated compared to her sister. It made me really sad because she said that she feels like she isn’t enough and she has big thoughts and ideas of things but she doesn’t know how to put them into words. She just wants to be understood and people won’t listen.

When Anne talks about looking through the window and the things she sees I thought about how difficult it must be for her to see things like that at such a young age.

On page 55 when Anne says she begins to feel empty and as if she is in a void I can relate to that sometimes because I can sometimes feel that way. I can usually bring myself out of it though.

I’m really confused as to what she means by calling Mrs. Van Daan “industrious” “gay” and “a coquette” I think this may confuse me because I don’t know what industrious means, and I assume the words gay and coquette have different meanings now than they did in her time. I’m thinking it’s meant to be some type of up insult.

I felt sympathy when Anne talks about how things have gotten while living in the annex, like tension between families, etc. I feel like I can sympathize with her because I understand how it is to feel tension in a home and when she talks about how nobody talks at dinner I can relate to her because sometimes when my stepdad was still living with us after my mom and him would argue nobody would talk at dinner.

I’m noticing again and again while reading. The people living in the annex are always having some type of conflict with each other, making things awkward or uncomfortable.

When Anne talks about how there isn’t much going on I can relate to her because at the moment everything is moving pretty slow and there hasn’t been too much happening.

Something that confused me is that she wrote three whole pages on a pen. I don’t understand how it’s important to the overall story at all, I feel like she could have said more about a different experience and have the pen thing be a small think when talking about her day.

At this point in the book I had definitely noticed Anne maturing and changing in her personality and views but on these specific pages I thought she was losing it a bit, mainly because of her wording and the things she was saying. I was getting worried she might be going crazy.

The letter Anne wrote to her dad had my jaw on the FLOOR. I would NEVER talk to my parents that way -specifically my mom,my stepdad though? Yes. - I think that maybe she had a lot of feelings built up over the past two years in the annex and it all boiled over but she could have handled it better for sure

I can connect with her on how she says she’s feeling in this letter sometimes and I feel like blowing up like that on people but I know how to regulate my emotions and have a calm and mature conversation.

When Meip was telling them about the engagement party I was shocked because of the fact that she was telling these people who basically were starving and suffering about the wonderful time she had eating all of these amazing foods.

um WHAT. Anne and Peter were literally getting freaky. Ew. Icky. Nasty. He’s like 17 and she’s 14 that is ILLEGAL. This page brought me a lot of discomfort..

Anne’s last entry!! I think that she really was relatable in this moment when she talks about herself and how she’s feeling. I think that she deserved more time to find herself and develop into the person she could have been.

When Anne talks about how she feels about Peter now compared to how she felt about him earlier on in the book I was honestly pretty shocked because the way she wrote about him made it seem like she liked him but she says she just needed somebody to talk to so I was a little confused.

# data[].attributes.body
When Anne says that she doesn’t want Peter romantically and she just wanted somebody to talk to I can connect to her because there have been times where I’ve thought that I was just friends with somebody but they wanted something else and it was really uncomfortable

# data[].attributes.body
When Anne talks about Mrs Van Daan and how she’s ’desperate’ I had some sympathy for Mrs Van Daan. She was annoying the whole entire book and I never liked her but suicide and mental issues are really serious and we don’t know what went on in her head.

When Anne talks about how interested she’s become with nature I felt bad that she wasn’t able to experience the beauty of it before she was taken and passed. She deserved so much more from her life!
