Lunar Chronicles Book Report

As Desmond Tutu once said, “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.” In “Hunger Moon” by Jane Cooper, the speaker is showing that everyone during the Hunger Moon has hope and wants to make through it. The Hunger Moon was the name of the last moon in February when there was a lot of snow. The Hunger Moon rises and sets like any other type of moon, has a negative connotation, but when it ends it brings happiness.

I'VE BEEN SUPER EXCITED FOR THIS TO COME OUT!!! For those who don't know this is one of my anticipated of the year (you can check out my list if you haven't already, I posted it in September). But since this is the last book of the series I don't feel the need to write a very long non-spoiler review. I won't write the reasons why I love this series so much in my Top Ten list if you would like to check that. The series starts out in this futuristic world where a young girl named Cinder catches the eye of Prince Kai, the future empire of the Common Wealth. The only problem is that she's a cyborg, part-human part-robot. For this book, I would give it about a 4/5 stars. I was definitely a great read but it wasn't my favorite book in the series, I honestly felt that Cress was the best book, then

I think that the author included Parker in the story because it was a great way to show that these people were actually people and that they had emotions, they cared for others, and someone from a European descent found them to be better than ‘civilized’ society. However, there were also many instances of them being truly terrible to some people specially to older women (Gwynne, 106). Parker was also the mother of “the last chief of Comanches”, Quanah. She eventually married and had children with an Indian reported in a paper that surprised many people (Gwynne, 116). This is why when she was finally found by her brother she did not want to leave her family (Gwynne, 126). However eventually Parker was taken back to her white family with her daughter, and they both eventually died; Quanah

In many ways I am like Thelma Arnold of Lilburn, Georgia (pg. 59). The book states that Thelma had not realized that her search browser, AOL, had kept and released records of what she had searched. When her records along with others records, were released complete strangers were able to identify her and find where she lived by what she had searched. Another man’s records were released with Thelma’s and the reports showed that he had searched for things like how to kill his wife (pg. 60). I personally had no idea that there is a “big brother” out there watching what we search and look at on our electronic devices (pg. 48). Of course I had known that even the things we delete off the internet are never really deleted. Although, I feel that our

During the Holocaust, many townspeople were aware of the events occurring within the concentration camps. In the book, Night by Elie Wiesel, the townspeople remained complacent with the Nazis. Some people even went as far as taunting the Jews when they were transported through towns. The Nazis during that time had a very strong influence and used fear to incite citizens to remain cooperative.

In “Walk Two Moons” by Sharon Creech, Sal demonstrates that she understands, realizes, and accepts the situations that occur. First in Bybanks, where Sal lives most of her life and where all of her family memories take place.

In examining how local and global relationships are mediated during the era of neoliberal globalization, there is a disconnect between appearance and reality. Despite an appearance of prosperity and benefits for both local and global spaces under a system of neoliberal globalization, it is instead an era of inauthentic prosperity in the core built off the exploitation of periphery nations. With the violent realities of neoliberal prosperity displaced to the periphery of the world-system, the genre of Afrofuturism allows literature to mediate and discover the importance of hidden histories while giving a voice to the marginalized. Nalo Hopkinson’s novel The New Moon’s Arms and Pauline Melville’s short story “The Sparkling Bitch” work to reconstruct

When there, the doctor finds out that Cinder is Lunar and is immune to this disease; All while the queen from Luna comes to New Beijing.

Someone once said, “Life’s best lessons seemed to be learned at the worst times.” It is true to Sal because when she found her mom's grave she believed that he mom was dead but still refused her mom's death. She also learned learned valuable lessons. A major theme in Walk Two Moons, by Sharon Creech, is you can’t stop the birds of sadness from flying overhead but you can stop them from nesting in you hair. Don’t judge a man until you walked two moons in his moccasins.

The following 5 books are the ones you might have heard about in passing or that keep popping up in conversations. Some you might never even have heard about, but one thing is for sure, they are all must reads that belong in your library.
