When James found out that his stepfather had died James dropped out of highschool and he possibly failed all of his classes. “I virtually dropped out of high school after he died, failing every class” (McBride 6). James did not do well after his stepfather had passed away, he just didnt want to do good in life anymore. Moreover, James continued to not do good he really like his stepfather alot and that really affected his life, Hunter was like a father figure to James because his father had died before James was actually born. “Me and my hanging-out boys were into the movies” (McBride 6).

Star War hate it or love it, it has captured the minds and imaginations of millions of people. I remember watching Episode IV A New Hope when I was a little kid and was memorized by it. Loving everything about the movie from space travel to the mystery of the force. But now I lost all hope in Star Wars after the last two newest movies which are The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. In A New Hope you can actually see the journey of the hero, which follows Luke’s Journey from being a teenager to a man by the actions he took throughout the movie. In the new movie the force awakens Rey is supposed to be the hero and has to experience events in her life like Luke that will change her to be a hero that she was born to be. Yet after watching the newest movies I feel like there wasn’t much of the hero’s journey, and that they gave her powers that seem unrealistic for her level of training. Even Anakin Skywalker “the chosen one” had to train for years and he was barely able to fight legendary fighters like Count Dooku or Obi-Wan Kenobi.

She builds up these pairs of foil characters exquisitely to reveal the themes in her novel that firstly, the situation in which a person is found does not define their character, it is their reaction and response that determines their worth; secondly, that the concept of family is not solely dependant on blood and
