Summary: So far this book is about Andrea's life after the death of her father. She undergoes a lot of pain and abuse by here step father who also abuses her mother. The catch of the story so far though is that the mother is going to make Andrea and her little sister have their step fathers last name so they can be a " legal " family. During the time the judge ask the girls question Andrea has a flash back of when her father once touched her the wrong way. Also how when ever he hits her he bribes her so she doesn't tell her mother. My main question is how will her mother ever find out about whats happening under her own roof.
Quote : " My grandmother had been forced to look at things differently years ago"
Reaction : So far in Andrea's writing I am able to see that she uses an emotional appeal to get the reader to understand her pain. Also she uses a lot of descriptive words that help me as a reader see how the events in her life happened. Every situation she describes in grate detail also she shows there's a meaning to it. The above quote has to be understood because its foreshadowing how she will also view life differently.
-what things were looked at differently?
ReplyDelete-does the story give flashbacks to when the father was alive?
