For this book analysis, I read the book A Piece of Cake by Cupcake brown. It is a memoir told by Cupcake about her life. She starts the book at age 11, when she was living a normal and pleasant life with her mother in San Diego. She was quite close to her along with her step father (who, at the time, she thought was her biological father), and her uncle. Then out of nowhere, she finds her mother dead in her room and her life is shaken into disaster. The court system had to turn both her and her brother over to her biological father whom she never met, instead of giving her to the man she was raised by. Her father then sent her to a foster home where she was raped and beaten constantly. When she

John “Crash” Coogan is the typical jock; he lives in Pennsylvania and is starting his second year of middle school as a 7th grader. I thought the main theme of the book is don’t judge a book by its cover. At least what most of us have in mind as a jock? Crash had always picked on his neighbor Penn Webb because of his choices and his lifestyle until later he realized something about Penn that he was his meant- to- be best friend. Crash has a wonderful life, until life deals him a hand that he could not have expected. When Crash 's grandfather unexpectedly has a stroke, Crash instinctively steps back and re-evaluates his life without even realizing he 's doing it. Suddenly, his cool friend, Mike doesn’t seem so cool anymore. Things that

In chapter twelve we see once again Ender’s instinct to win for all time during a battle. Even with the odds stacked against him, Ender defeated Bonzo’s army. Ender realizes that Bonzo, if he didn’t already, hates Ender to his core, “this would surely turn his rage murderous […] Bonzo will be thirsting for blood now” (195). Petra attempts to warn Ender that he is in danger but, he already knows this. All five of his platoon leaders escort him to his room that night. When he arrives, he finds that Dink has left him a message of warning, “Don’t ever be alone. –Dink” (205). Ender can only sleep because he thinks that surely the teachers will keep him safe outside of the battle room. However, Graff insists that Ender must handle things on his own, that there will be

“..the System includes the Situation, but it is more enduring, more widespread, involving extensive networks of people, their expectations, norms, policies, and, perhaps, laws. Over time, Systems come to have a historical foundation and sometimes also a political and economic power structure that governs and directs the behavior of many people within its sphere of influence. Systems are the engines that run situations that create behavioral contexts that influence the human action of those under their control. At some point, the System may become an autonomous entity, independent of those who initially started it or even those in apparent authority within its power structure. Each System

Dementor’s are known to be one of the vicious creatures to live in the wizarding world. Dementor’s are gloomy, black, have this silk-like clothing, with these monster like hands and no face. The Dementor’s hover around and are always together. They travel in packs. Professor Dumbledore tells all the students that the Dementor’s cannot distinguish the difference between harm and good so do not give them a reason to harm you.(Rowling 3) The Dementor’s, in my opinion, live a dreary life. The Dementor’s are always flying around and everything gets very cold and frozen when they are nearby. Dumbledore specifically said he did not want them inside Hogwarts. But during a Quidditch match, Harry finds himself surrounded by hundreds of them and ends falling off his broom. Dumbledore slows his fall so he isn’t extremely hurt but he was exceptionally angry with them being inside the grounds.

In his book Elijah Anderson tries to describe how life is, living in a black poor community in an American town known as Inner-city. In this area everyone is struggling financially and seem distant from the rest of America. The main social class in this town is the “decent” and the “street” families as the community has labeled them. The labeling by the local is as a result of social contest between the inhabitants. The line between a decent and street family is usually very thin, it’s based on a family evaluation of itself labeling itself decent and the other street. The irony is that families bearing a street label may value itself as decent and still valuing other families’ street. However, this labels form the basis of understanding inner-city community lifestyle. The community has many of the white society middle class values but they know the values don’t hold water in the street. They say it does not provide the attitude of a person who can take care of themselves in the street.

In the book “The trial of god” by Elie Wiesel and the movie “God on Trial” directed by Andy de Emmony, there are many similarities and differences throughout the film and the Novel. Both the author and director capture the points of their stories. The settings of both stories are emotional. “Trial of god” by Elie Wiesel it takes place right after a pogrom. They perform a play putting god on trial and accused him of staying in silence while they faced evil. “God on Trial” directed by Andy de Emmony is about a legend that a group of concentration camp prisoners gave a trial convicting God for letting his people get killed.

Pheoby cannot do the adventurous things that Janie does because of the responsibilities for her marriage. The last chapter of the novel is where Janie's story ends.

Pheoby tells Janie that she is now inspired to be more adventurous with her life. Since Pheoby represents an everyday person, Hurston wants to show that everyone can grow after reading the novel.

As I was reading the book American Literature by Nina Baym, there was a story that caught my attention. This story is based on how a pastor tries to persuade his congregation from the sins and make them be fearful of the divine wrath of God. I personally can relate to this story because of my religion. I am Pentecostal and I can see why Edwards would use such words towards his congregation so that they won’t perish and go to hell. My Pastor uses similar approaches like this when she preaches. In “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” Edwards uses frightening words and religious metaphors to divert people from the congregation from the sins and condemning them to hell if they provoke the wrath of God and to establish that everyone should be fearful of him.

A romantic drama film is a genre that explores the difficult aspects that come with love. The plot usually includes two people that are in love that can’t be together the way they want to be due to obstacles. The obstacles in a romantic drama film can include a family 's disapproval, to forbidden love, to one 's own psychological restrictions. The Notebook is a movie based on a best-selling novel that was written by author Nicholas Sparks. This is a love story that is composed of a series of obstacles between two young people that are madly in love with each other. It perfectly fits and displays the criteria for a successful romantic drama film because it includes the complexity of love, and elicits emotions.
