In this issue of Lancet Oncology, Dr. Antonia and colleagues report on the combination of durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).1 After the recent approvals of nivolumab and pembrolizumab in NSCLC,2, 3, 4 there is a near frenzy of attempts to combine agents with inhibitors of the PD-1 immune checkpoint. Some efforts are based on only the shakiest of scientific evidence. However, the combination of durvalumab, a PD-L1 inhibitor, and tremelimumab, a CTLA-4 inhibitor, has a sound scientific basis. Dual checkpoint inhibition is now an established treatment option for patients with advanced melanoma.5, 6

I desperately want to grow old” (114). With Maddie, you can see her

This novel is based on storytelling. Each girl has their own point of view of what life is like in the Congo. For, example, it was absolutely terrible for Rachel. She never wanted to be there from the start. When they first arrived in the Congo, no one wanted to be there. Certain girls changed their minds. Ruth May, for example, conformed to the Congo culture. She even made friends along the way, by playing games like “Mother May I” with the children of the Congo. Leah did not really conform to the culture. She wanted to hunt with the guys, but she still was a part of their culture. She fought for women’s rights in the Congo. Leah

There are five narrators in this book who carries on the story telling. Those five narrators are four girls each named Ruth May, Adah, Leah, Rachel, and their mother Orleanna. Orleanna is always the opening narrator in each of the books besides the last two which are Song of the Three and The Eyes in the Trees.

Basically in the opening act Orleanna hints ominously to the reader at the events that’s going to happen. In the opening act Orleanna said “There’s

How the author described, how Alexis found the body was definitely unexpected and it felt so real. I enjoyed the way to author explained how the girl’s body was found. April used descriptive words that could help me envision how the body was, almost like I was watching a movie. When she found the body, that is what really stuck with me throughout the entire book. The were two quotes that stood out to me in this book. “If the cops are wrong, then right now this guy is looking for his next victim.” This quote stuck out to me because it meant that if the teenagers don’t find out who the killer is, then the killer is still out there waiting for his next victim. “It was all like a fairy tale. And bad things happened in a fairy tale forests. Witches and wolves lay in wait.” I thought that this quote was similar to the other one, and I think that it really shows how they needed to find the killer, so that more people wouldn’t be
