I was caught by suprise when we learned that Charlotte Dechant infact was not a villian, rather someone that wanted to help charlie all a long, as she had went through a similar experience before with Charlie's Mother. I think this is very shocking because in the beginning of the book, it is made out to seem like Charlotte was the witch and she was an evil women, as Charlie would constantly mock and disrep

My favorite Part of Nightmares was when Charlie got sucked into the Netherworld. This is one of my favorite parts because I thought that it would bring upon a new sense of urgency and suspsense into the book, and I am personally a huge fan of suspense. It was extremely important to the story because this is where charlie must conquer his fear in order to save his brother. If he did not enter the Nether world there would be no story.

Book Title: 13 Reasons Why
Author: Jay asher
Genre: Suspense/Realistic Fiction
Date Started: May
Total Pages: 288
Current Page #: 150
Main Character: Clay Jensen is the Main Character of my book. He receives tapes one day, what he does not know is that these tapes contain 13 reasons why the girl, Hannah Baker commit suicide. He listens to the tape to try and find an explanation as to why the girl tragically took her own life. Each tape is allocated to a person explaining how they contributed to her death.
Secondary Character(s):
1. Justin Foley is one of the people who contributed to the Death of Hannah Baker
2. Jessica is also one of the people who was apart of Hannah's suicide
POV: 1st
Setting: Modern Day
Interesting Noticing: I think that one interesting noticing from my book is that, it doesn't shy away from the details of her suicide, it gives immense detail on her death, and I think is a good thing because it I think it effectively raises awareness for suicide prevention which I think is a very important matter

This past weekend, I gave up all responsibilities and started another Netflix adventure. This time a show that I've heard a lot about, and one that I've been anticipating for a while now, "13 Reasons Why".

Originally depicted in a novel by Jay Asher, "13 Reasons Why" walks through the life and death of the young Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford), who recorded 13 tapes and 13 reasons why she committed suicide. These involve many controversial topics, like bullying, young love, sexual assault, stalking and much more. The main protagonist of this story is Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette) who struggles with grief and receives the tapes from Hannah's trusted individual.

I originally became interested in this story when I heard about the book from a few of my friends. They all raved about the book, saying how great yet sad the story is, and honestly, I didn't know what I was getting myself into.

I know that when I started watching the Netflix original series, I didn't cry like I expected myself to. Instead, after watching each episode I felt a little bit more hesitant of the world around me.

Being a former victim of bullying and seeing what others have faced, I empathized with Hannah. I felt her pain and I recognized myself in her more than once throughout the entire series. In addition to the empathy and sympathy I felt for each character going through a bad situation, I started to recognize how much our actions really impact others.

I learned that we all have choices, and those choices shape our own life, as well as others, even if we don't know it. Whatever we do, whether it be bad or good, has the power to impact another person. We can say something, we can assume things, and we can even make mistakes that actually hurts someone, but maybe the best choice is to just care about another person.

We don't know what is going on in other people's lives unless we actually ask, so it's better to be kind and caring than to risk hurting another person.

In the series, she says "some of you cared, but some of you didn't care enough." And no matter how cynical or hateful a person can be, if they can care about another human being, they have the power to save a life.

In addition to this, I learned that although this show was a dramatic portrayal of highschool, a lot of the negative mentality and sexist language still radiates through today's society. I know in my highschool, many girls were harassed, and I look around the world and see it's still very much present in college, and in everyday life.

After watching the entire season in a weekend, my emotions are definitely at an all time high, but I really appreciate what this show and novel did.

This series highlights almost all of the topics people are afraid to discuss, like suicide and bullying. But hopefully this show can teach others the truth about victims and how they get to the point of no return, so that maybe, one day, we can actually save them.

Book Title: We All Looked Up
Author: Tommy Wallach
Date Started: 3-27-17
Reading Rate: 104 Pages Per Week
Current Page #72
Main Character: My Main Characters are all High School students essentially, just growing up. They all come different Ethnicity's backgrounds, and demographics. But I will be focusing on Eliza, the girl who is labeled a slut by her peers, her father is suffering from Stage 3 Pancreas Cancer, and who's mom left as soon as she heard the news for Hawaii with her new found Husband. So far, Eliza is a smart Intelligent girl who doesn't show the real her to people.
Secondary Character(s):
1.  Eliza's Dad is a man who seems extremely upbeat despite his awful situation, and to add onto that, he is still in love with Eliza's mom despite her leaving him because he had cancer, he still remains in love with her.
2.
POV: 3rd
Setting: Present Day
Interesting Noticing: I like how it rewrites the same moment multiple times from different author's perspectives.

Isabel saves her mistress.
When Isabel saves her mistress, this is telling me that she developed some type of emotional connection to her despite the cruel punishment she was put through

When Curzon helps Isabel escape

I think that when curzon helped isabel escaped, he knew that he was going to be sacrificing himself. But I think that he did this because He wanted to sacrifice himself for the greater good of his people

When Isabel wakes up to a thick smoke and a burning sensation. I think this is indicating that the British have finally attacked, and theyŕe in the midst of essentially burning down New York. I think this is going to lead to the eventual freedom of Isabel and Ruth, and they;re going to be free from slavery.

# data[].attributes.body
My main character is Isabel, I would describe her as tough, resourceful, determined and hopeful. I see her this way because although she is going through an extremely rough time, she still manages to get through it and keep on going. A secondary character within my book would be Ruth, they are important tom the story because Ruth is Isabelś younger sister, and when their mother died Isabel promised to her that she would protect Ruth. So I feel as if Ruth is the motivation for Isabel to keep on going and keep fighting through all of her troubles. The problem/conflict of the book is the fact that Isabel and Ruth are not free and theyŕe trying to gain their freedom. The main character (Isabel) is attemting to gain her freedom by working together with Rebels, to gain her freedom. So far one of my favorite parts about the book is that it gives the reader an accurate representation of what slave life was like back then. I think this is really important because it helps educate people upon the topic and lets them see what slaves had to go through back then. One of the things that I do not like about the book is the fact that it is so gorey.

When the Boy in the Red Hat betray her and get her into trouble

I think that when Isabel finds out she has been betrayed, it also contributed to her rebelling because it added to her anger and was just too much for her to handle, so she eventually just had to let it all out, But I think that later on in the book they will make up and work together

When Madam Lockton sells Ruth off

I think that by selling Ruth off she knew that Isabel was going to react the way she was going to React, so she exploited this and used this to intentionally get Isabel into trouble with the hopes that she would be executed for her crimes against ”humanity”. I feel that she is only doing this because she knows what events are about to take place and she is taking it out on Isabel because does not like slaves.

When Isabel tries to run away but is caught by the Colonists

I think that when she tries to run away she knows that she really has no chance of escaping, but I think because she is so fed up with Madam Lockton, her response is to rebel and her showing rebellion is by running away. I do not think this was the smartest decision because in turn she was captured, essentially tortured and branded.

The boy In the Red hat offers to help free Isabel and Ruth in exchange for Information on the Loyalists.

I think that the boy is offering to free her because Like the patriots, he beloved that all people were created equal, and in order to go through with their beliefs, they had to free all slaves because it was apart of their morals

Madam Lockton slaps Isabel in the face with a fireplace poker

I think that being slapped in the face by a fire poker, is going to trigger something in Isabel which will cause her to rebel in some shape or form. I think she is getting fed up with how the way her and her sister (Ruth) are being treated. One possible of rebellion that they could carry out is possibly becoming a spy for the Patriots like the boy in the red hat had previously offered.

Green-Lake

It takes place in the town of green lake where it switches between current and Green-Lake from 110 years ago.

110 years ago, Green-Lake was a vibrant and boystrous town and the major difference was that the lake was not dried up. Currently it is essentially a dry rigid wasteland and the lake is dried up.
