    Having now finished the story, i would like to say that my overall impression about the book hasn't changed much, it was still a dry and boring book with a plot line that didn't seem to climax much at all but instead had a steady pace with a litte bump here or there. Many will say that they hated the end of the book but I think the book was ended like that with a certain purpose in mind, to make us think what was this book about and why did it end like this?…

    In the literacy narrative “how do I go from this to this” Amber Wiltse tells about her writing experience in college and how the harry potter series help to draw her family closer together. The pictures that she posted of her when she was little as a baby seems to be saying this is how she started out as a literary writer. Her senior picture shows a completion of something significant on her life. At the end of the story her embracing her brother shows just how much reading can help develop a bond between families. As I was reading this story she said something that sounded just like something I would say “Literacy yeah, it sounds boring but it’s really not.”(Wiltse646) Until I found “Canterwood Crest” series I wasn’t much of a reader at all.…

    I think it was powerful because Aneta was an orphan and didn't have much but then she opt her family and she had such a big heart and loved Wink so much. At first I thought that I wouldn't like this book and it toulk me forever to get through the first couple chapters. Once I got hang of it I was really into it and I couldn't wait to see what was on the next page. I think that the authors writing is very good and the setting is also good but happy to. It hasn't changed my thinking because I have always thought my dog was my best friend since I opt her up to now, and I love her more than she…

    I liked this novel very much because it shows how precious life is, and that drinking and driving is NEVER a good idea. The story makes me realize that with maturity, comes difficult choices, and you must always be wise. Things like this happen every day and people always think, “Oh it won’t happen to me,” but you never know. I would recommend this book to my friends because I think the story line would influence their choices greatly. I think it would give them a better perspective on making good…

    I loved this book! It was very interesting to me. It was definitely a book that I couldn't put down. When she told about her experiences about making new friends and also losing her family I found this very interesting and heartbreaking to know the pain she must have been going through. A weak point in this book was when Hannelore couldn't find…

    I liked this book mainly because of how different it was compared to my lifestyle and how entertaining it was. Nikki turner didn’t really sugar coat much so I felt I was watching a movie and saw it for what it truly was. Like anyone’s guilty pleasure we all like reality television and it kind of reminded me of just that with fights and drama. The books good points that were how certain events that happen in one’s life good or bad really do shape a person into who they become. Teaching me to not be ashamed of what happens and to only use that circumstance as a motivation of some kind. For anyone that is interested in a gritty, suspenseful, and eye bulging book that keeps you wondering what’s next I would definably recommend this book to that someone willing to take a…

    I enjoyed this book thoroughly and always kept me intrigued until the end. It had small twists in it that were rather easy to interpret but it was also very interesting. I don’t particularly relate to this book, although situations that I’ve endured have changed my perspective on life, in a positive aspect, and made me unprejudiced and versatile and not so…

    I thought the writer had a really good flow of style and expressed herself really well, especially with the storyline. It was a great story overall, the writer was very graphic with her words and it kind of made me feel like I was there re-living that moment with her. Her style was cool and she built up the story with conflict. The suspense was awesome because she made it feel like it was going to be good from the start to the end, but then I felt the tension when things became dark and muggy. The argumentation was written well and the story ended on a good note. The writer wrote for her people and you could literally…
