Lot Of Problems Reading The Book
978 words
1. I really enjoyed reading the book. I liked the
way it was written pretty much. Charlie's letters
are as intimate as a diary as he shares his
day-to-day thoughts and feelings. You can somehow
really get to know the narrator - Charlie - and

somewhat unrealistic tones, which I noticed some
time after reading the book, because my first
impression was how incredibly realistic it was.
Charlie is only portr...

On May 7 th, 1993, my eleventh birthday, my mother
broke the news. I was going to be a big sister to
twins. I was not happy. Being an only child for
over eleven years with divorced parents had made
me extremely spoiled and I did not want that to
change. I had become very accustomed to not having
to share my family's love and the prospect of
another child in the family scared me very much.
For weeks I didnt speak to my mother because I
felt that she had betrayed me in some peculiar way

money. Gambling is an ancient activity, but in
America, land of the slot machine and the instant

the people around him dont know that he knows

The title of Author Miller s play the Crucible
fits the story in many ways. There are many
definitions for a crucible but mainly two of them
fit the story most. The first definition of a

Moral Of The Story Scarlet Letter

Hypocrisy, often seen as one of the vilest
manifestations of the human ego, is also one of

simplest, and yet one of the most intricate
aspects of being human. We all wish to judge and
not be judged, for our own voice is always the

actions. Can we, in all seri...
