Most people know about the attacks on Pearl Harbor but very few know about how it affected the lives of Japanese-Americans living on the islands. In the novel, Under the Blood-Red Sun, the author Graham Salisbury tells a story from the perspective of Tomikazu Nakaji, a young Japanese-American boy and his struggles with racism and becoming the man of his family. After the attack, the suspicions and biased racism of the non-immigrant Americans is raised, which lead to the wrongful arrests of Tomikazu's father and grandfather. This resulted with him having to get a job, take care of his family, and deal with the constant bullying of his neighbor, Keet Wilson. In the end, he manages to maintain the tasks his father had assigned him with the help of his friends. This book showed me the importance of friendship, honor, and persistence.

Friendship is one of the most valuable components in life. Friendship has the ability to change lives in a positive way. Friendship changes people’s views on life to a more positive outlook. “True friendship is when someone knows you better than yourself and takes a position in your best interests in a crisis.

A true friend is someone who would stop whatever they are doing to help you through anything and you would do the same for them. In a friendship both people need to posses the same essential traits for the friendship to be successful. Friends are a big part of my life because without them life would be very dull. I think God made us to find people that we are compatible with so we can go through life together. Three traits that a person should posses to be a good friend are honesty, loyalty and encouragement. In my experience my friends who live out all three of these traits fully, are my closest friends and I hold the same traits back to them.

A Friendship is made up by caring for someone special to you, It’s looking out for them, hanging out with them, and trusting them.

That's right the series that I'm going to be talking about today is The Lunar Chronicles. I can see many people having many different couples that they love within this series. I currently have only read 291 pages of Winter, so I haven't got the chance to fully know that books couple. My favorite couple is one I have watched grow for a long time. It is a couple I have gotten attached to throughout this series. If you haven't guessed yet my favorite couple is Cinder and Kai.

In Winter the last book of the Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder, Kai, Cress, Thorne, and Wolf plan to start a revolution on Luna and give the title of queen to the true heir of the throne, Princess Selene also known as, Cinder. On Luna, they make allies and build an army to stop Queen Levana and her wicked actions. Meanwhile, in the Lunar Kingdom Winter, the crazy ill princess with no royal blood and her long time best friend Jacin try to escape the kingdom with the help of prisoner Scarlet, an ally and friend of Cinder. Later on, they find Cinder and help her battle against Queen Levana. Which, would then result to them overthrowing, Levana and living happily for the rest of their days.

The cover of Winter contains a hand holding a shining apple which refers to the basis for the book, Snowwhite.

Winter is the fourth book of the series written by Marissa Meyer who is well known for The Lunar Chronicles and other various short stories. All of the stories in The Lunar Chronicles are all directed towards different ages but Winter is definitely the youngest with how childlike Winter acts.

Friends should support each other at all times. In anything friends do, they should respect each other's opinions and support each other. Not only must friends be supportive of one another, there should also be a sympathetic tone when needed. Friends should not only listen, but also understanding needs to take place, as well as help. When a friend is in need, you are waiting for him as he would be waiting for you. If a friend is not sympathetic and aware of your needs, then there is a weak friendship. Each should know his friend's goals, needs, and wants. If these things are not known, then there is a weak relationship. Friends should set goals together to help develop a strong relationship. They can even help each other along the way. One person's weakness could be another friend's strength. A person needs to be loved, and that is what a friend does. A friend needs to be respected as well as loved. Not only should a friend's needs be fulfilled, but also certain wants. A friend wants a person who will listen, love, and show respect, just as anybody would. A friend is also loyal and trustworthy. When friends talk to one another, it is known that the conversation should just be between them, especially if it is personal to either of them. Neither person should share any of the information with someone else. That is just like invading someone's privacy when you repeat something that a friend tells you without permission. You should be able to confide in and

In life there are many changes that can cause a true friendship to go wary such as marriage, divorce, birth of children, new careers, and sickness.
