4. While reading Flawed, I have been wondering if Judge Crevan will ever get called out for what he has done. He has hidden the 6th brand on Celestine and no one knows about it. Somehow the witnesses of this action have disappeared, and it may have been planned by Crevan. I wonder if Celestine will ever find Mr. Berry and if he still has the video proving Crevans horrible action. In my opinion he should be pronounced flawed. Maybe he will, and maybe someone will find out what he has done.

2. The author kind of makes us feel the same way as celecstine is feeling about the flawed. She has a lot of sympathy toward the flawed and wants to help them and get rid of this policy that the government has on punishing the flawed. She shows a lot of emotion while talking about the flawed getting branded and how it is wrong and should be stopped. She is mainly a strong brave girl but there are some points where she gets emotional when talking to someone about how she was punished because of being flawed.

1. An experience that I have had that help me identify with the content is a strict household with set rules. This helps identify with the text because Celestine is under very strict rules ever since she has been deemed flawed.  She now has to be home at a certain time and she can only do certain things. This is similar to me not being able to have soda whenever I want and the same thing with ice cream, there are certain days for that.
3. A quote that really hits me is “Freedom of speech isn’t something you can mess with with journalists. You try to silence them, they’ll shout even louder.”  What this quote means to me is that when you try to silence people they will just come back stronger than they started. This hit me hard because it can relate to nearly everything. In a sport when the other team scores and is up, they are trying to beat you but thats when you come back stronger than you did in the first period and try to turn it around.

1.I don't believe the author contradicts herself but the character Celestine in the beginning was all about being perfect and going with the governments policy of no flawed people and everyone flawed should be punished, but eventually, as the story went on she started becoming flawed and doing things that made her flawed. That is when she changed what she thought about the government and how they run things. So she contradicted herself from saying the flawed should be punished and the government is correct to saying that this is wrong and that she now wants to help the flawed and stop this from happening.

4. One of the aha moments of this book was when Celestine mentions how she felt bad for the old man she helps on the bus. She got research on him from her grandfather. Celestine did not follow the plan her lawyer and judge laid out for her, but she stood up for what she believed in. When she was branded as a flawed girl, she was told that the old man had died. No one told her that "he died in the hospital last night" (Ahern 109). She then understood why it was the easier choice to lie.
5. One moment the author interrupts the plot is on page 38 when Ahern is describing the scene on the bus. She tells us about the flawed women she sees on the bus but then her mind wanders and she begins to think about Angelina. Angelina was her neighbor and piano teacher who was titled as flawed. Her mind begins to think about everything flawed people have to give up, but it is irrelevant to think about Angelina instead of the situation on the bus. At this point it is easier to understand why flawed people are a big deal and how different they actually seem. You begin to see Celestine's true beliefs and can predict how she will react.

2. A moment where I have connected with a character is when Celestine helped the man on the bus. I made a connection with her because I would have done the same thing even if it meant something bad happening to me because you never know what someone is going through. I was very glad when she did this because it really showed who she is as a person and where she has a soft spot.
3. I have learned that Crevan can get in trouble for the sixth brand. This has me thinking about what exactly would happen if the truth got out. I also think about if he gets in trouble will he have the power to say it doesn't matter, as in will he be able to overturn any punishment given. Personally I want him to get punished and I want the truth to come out, it would be a great turn and make the book a whole lot better.

1. Celestine at first was an ordinary perfect girl that has changed and grown so much already. She went from being like every other perfect girl to eventually being accused of being flawed. This changed a lot because since she has been accused of being flawed, she now sees that it is wrong that people are being punished for having flaws when they cant even control it. This has impacted me because I believe that its wrong that they are doing this and now Celestine is trying to help them.
2. The sensory details are used to help us understand whats happening and gives us a better idea on what is going on.
3. I think the pace is a little slow but I also believe that the slow pace helps us paint a picture with more details and she still manages to keep us interested.

1. Celestine in the beginning is a character that just lives her life like everyone else is but then later you can see that she starts to think differently of everything that society has thought. We see this when she sticks up for the flawed person and then when she is in the holding cell she is discussing about how she doesn't know what she did wrong. This actually makes me happy because she is standing up for what is right and not following what all of the other people are doing.
2. He creates sensory details very effectively by describing what Celestine is seeing. We see this when she is in the cell and she is describing what the person looks like so that we can see and imagine the character. I also see this when she is describing what the court looks like with the large doors and all of the people throwing things at her. I enjoy when authors do this because it helps me be in the story and creates a view.
3. The pace of the text is kinda slow but I personally like the slower stories. It took us about twenty chapters to get to the court room which is the main part of the story where she gets her verdict but I like it because it was drawn out and easy to follow.

1. Celestine (central character) starts out in this book as this perfect girl who can do no harm, but now as we are continuing to read we see her gradually becoming a new person. She is starting to stand up for what she believes in. She does not understand why the community doesn't treat the flawed like the perfect. They should be equal, not treated with disrespect.
2. The author uses sensory detail to paint a picture of the scene. While reading we really see what is going on by the descriptive words she uses. She does not just describe the main character, but she describes everyone.
3. Personally I think that the pace is kind of slow, but then again it helps set the scene. We do not see the trial until around chapter 17. The chapters are fairly short but a lot is going on in those chapters. Although I do not like how slow the pace is, I do enjoy how the author includes her details. Ahern really knows how to set the scenes. I have not been bored once throughout this book, and I do not expect to be bored in future reading.

1. I do not believe the author because she is trying to make us believe that Celestine is perfect. Although she chooses smart decisions she is still flawed, as are we.
2. The authors beginning of the book started out slow, but it still had a mysterious aspect to it. As each chapter went on the book became more suspenseful and more interesting. The way the author wrote the book is making me want to keep reading because new things keep revealing.
3. The author took Celestine and changed her from a flat character and into a living, breathing soul. Celestine starts out as a perfect girl who cannot do anything wrong. Now she is put on trial for being flawed. Instantly we see changes in her and are more interested in her as a character. She comes to live with each new character trait Cecelia Ahern adds.
4. The setting reminds me of a close community. A lot of the families getting along and word traveling very quickly. If there is a problem then everyone tries to conquer it together. The setting implies a lot of tension, making the community afraid of what to do.
5. The author uses a language that makes us readers engaged and intrigued. As we are reading we sense the fear that Ahern is describing, this is what makes us want to stop and investigate. We need to see why the characters are afraid. Her wording choice is pretty clear and somewhat easy to understand, but it still gives a lot of context clues and adds more sensory details to the story.

1. I do not believe the author because in the book flawed, they try to make us think that there are perfect people such as Celestine, when that is not the case. They try to make us believe that there are perfect people when in reality everyone has some flaws. Nobody is perfect.
2. The author uses suspense to grab your attention and makes you want to keep reading. They keep bringing in new ideas that keep you interested in the story such as when when Angela was being dragged out of her house.
3. The Author took Celestine, an ordinary girl that you didn't really think about because she was just an ordinary "perfect" girl until they soon made her come off as flawed. This gave us a new view on the character, therefor giving life to the character.
4.What peaked my interest about the setting was that the author makes it sound like everyone in the town is so close and any problems that may occur, such as the problems with Angela or with Celestine. They all talk about it and try to solve it and get through it together.
5.  The language of the story makes us what to stop and investigate because a lot of the language used in the story can make us fearful of the outcome or even confused as to why things are happening the way they are. This makes us interested and wanting to figure out or investigate what is going to happen.

1. No she is not believable because no one is perfect like the story portrays. The reason I think this is because Celestine who is perfect is accused of being flawed.
2. The author uses suspense in the beginning of the novel by telling us about the sirens and throwing the reader into a confused and intrigued state of mind. I experienced this when they started to talk about the sirens and it just made me want to read more.
3. The author took a flat character, Celstine and turned her into an interesting one by making her flawed. Before she was just a normal girl who was pretty much perfect and then the author made her do something to make her flawed, therefore adding life to the character and the story.
4. What peaked my interest about the setting was how close the whole town was with each other. They talked about how when Angela was taken they talked about how the whole town came out and looked in concern. That is like the ideal neighborhood and really I wish there was more of a close nit feel in my development.
5. Some of the language that the author uses makes the reader more interested in the reading. She uses language that makes us kinda scared or like suspicious of the council. I also found myself getting a little angry at the flawed council throughout because of the authors use of dialogue made me realize that Celestine did nothing wrong.
