The short story, “Catskin”, written by Kelly Link is similar to that of a fairytale. Although this story may include some references to modern life, a lot of this story mentions witches and princesses, however, there is little to no magic. This is a somewhat unusual tale of a lonely witch whose magical family and devoted son must deal with her death, the death of their mother.

Cinderella, by the Brothers Grimm, described the life of a maiden named Cinderella. Born to a loving family, Cinderella’s life had drastically changed when her ailing mother had perished from her disease. After the death of Cinderella’s mother, her father had married another woman, who had two daughters. Unfortunately, Cinderella’s step-mother and step-sisters were cruel to Cinderella, forcing her to wear rags and perform chores. Instead of voicing the abuse, Cinderella submissively endured the appalling treatment and had her value reduced to a servant. As years progressed, the king organized an extravagant ball for three days, designed to attract the prince to the maidens in the ball. Even though Cinderella desperately wanted to attend the ball, because of the cruelty of her step-sisters, Cinderella remained meek and was warned she would be severely punished if she didn’t sort the lentils.

The book Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow is an incredibly detailed biography about the life of Alexander Hamilton, most notably America’s first secretary of the treasury. Through the book, however, it is revealed that Hamilton accomplished so much more than simply being on the ten dollar bill; he created America’s first bank, founded what would later become the coast guard, served in multiple political offices, and carved out a successful career as a lawyer. In Ron Chernow’s Alexander Hamilton, he showcased a gentler side to Hamilton by including interactions with his family. These kind anecdotes helped round out Hamilton’s character, even if Chernow’s inappropriate language took away from the otherwise enthralling story.

She would ask, “would you rather be a better person than you are now or become lesser?” Yes, as a young girl I could only understand to a point.
