My project consists of a cake garnished with the red letter A. The A is divided by two contradictory ideas. The initial fraction of the cake has black frosting and a red A on it. The A has thorns around it, showing the immoral part of the letter. The opposite half of the cake has white frosting and a red A and is ornamented with roses instead of barbs.

Simon and Jesus is shown after Simon's death. While his body laid on the beach "the strange attendant creatures with their fiery eyes and trailing vapors, busied themselves round his head" (Golding 154). This event can be linked to Jesus' crown of thorns being placed on his head. Throughout the novel, Lord of the Flies, Golding illustrates Simon as the only boy on the island holding a good soul.

What if you could live in the world of the faeries for all of your human life? “A Court of Thorns and Roses,” by Sarah J Maas, is a gripping fantasy series about family, friendships, and of love. I picked up this book as a suggestion from mom to pass time and 13 hours later I had a numb bottom and a finished book in my hands. I was utterly hooked from the first page to the last. It is a compelling new twist on the classic Beauty and the Beast storyline where the main character makes many sacrifices
