When I stopped reading, the author was describing the characters more in detail. It was good, because I really felt that I somewhat knew them, and had similar life experiences as the characters she described. Still don't feel there is a conflict ALTHOUGH, there is two girls in the class that do not like each other. As I keep reading, I continue growing to like it somewhat, no matter how jumbled it may be. I like it because the story that is being told is real. Some people that write autobiographies sometimes play with the truth a little bit, but not this one. You hear every opinion and gruesome detail about the people and events that they had to overcome like wearing veils and what not.
I think a theme that is developing is, (kind of cheesy) but to just speak your mind. The book is getting really into detail about the discussions that they have together about books like Lolita, and it is really interesting to see the shy on the outside girls come up with very true, and overlooked opinions. In the beginning it talked about a girl not making it to the end, and I can't wait to read on to see what happens, and I secretly wonder if SHE spoke her mind...to the government..

Huh? Not quite sure what that last fragment meant, but then again, I haven't read your last posts. Sounds like an interesting book, though conveniently lacking in themes ;). Still, speaking your mind is a good theme, I agree, especially when it comes to a classroom situation. This would be a good book to comment on the outside example of whether participation points should be allowed, and in what circumstances. Very fluid! Good job!
I agree with Monica. I don't really understand. Very interesting though and it sounds like a cool book/ Again I agree with Monica in her comment about theme. This was a very well thought out post so keep up the good work!
The book sounds interesting, but I will bet that there is a deeper theme somewhere in your book. The amount of detail you described make me believe there is something else there. Have a good time finding it!
