Book that i am reading!!

The book that i am reading right now is A Thousand Splendid Suns by: Khaled Hosseini. I am in part two of the book, and it is still pretty depressing. I still believe that the thesis is: even though all odds may be against you, you must keep going. I think this because the main character has had everything that could possible go wrong, go wrong, her family dies, she is hit in an explosion, ect. . Although i do not agree with the theme , i still want to read the book, because it has so many twists and turns that i just have to find out what happens next, no matter how gruesome. Overall i would say that this is one of the best books that i have pickled up in a long time, because of the change of scenery, characters, and plot. If you have not already, pick up this book!

Loyd Vs Codi

I think that Loyd and Codi are very different. i think they are very different, firstly because Loyd wants to settle down, and Codi wants to be free, and attached to nothing. An example of Loyd wanting to settle down is when he says, "i want more than i'm getting. More than sex.pg 182" this shows that Loyd really wants to settle down, and not mess around like he did in high school. An example of Codi  showing that she wants to be free is how she always talks about leaving, and not being rooted in one place. Another way in which they are different, is by the way that they talk to each other. Loyd always answers all the questions he is asked in a serious manner, while Codi is very mocking in the way that she asks her questions, and even answers his. This is shown when Codi says " I could have told Loyd i lived on Neptune, and he'd say,"uh-huh? was it cold?""pg 220. One last way in which Codi and Loyd are different is by the way they think of each other, neither of them see eacher as equals , but as people that are almost on different planets. this is shown several times for Loyd, when he refers to himself as a native american railroad worker dating a doctor, and when in the beggining of the novel for Codi when she thinks of Loyd as a womanizer. As you can see, Loyd and Codi are very different because Loyd want to settle down, and Codi want to be free, the way they talk to each other, and by the way that they see each other.

What i am reading at the moment....

The book that i am reading at the moment is A Thousand Splendid Suns by: Khaled Hosseini. So far the thesis of the book seems to be even though all odds may be against you, you must keep going. The author proves this by creating a character named Miriam, who even at birth has to struggle to stay alive. I personally do not agree with the authors' position because i just do not like to see, read, or write about people suffering. Although i do not agree with the author, i still believe that this could turn out to be a wonderful book, because of the the amazing characters, and because i have read another great book by him, The Kite Runner.  SO, i must say, if you have not already picked up a book by Hosseini, you really should, to start on a new adventure.

trying something new

Octopus, the gigantic roller coaster, trying to learn a new language, but later accepting defeat. That pretty much describes me, always willing to do something without really knowing what i'm getting myself into. Even as a child, my parents would call me the "outgoing one", and i guess i have lived up to that, since i'm always up to trying new things. It usually shows at the ice cream shop or state fair, ordering grapefruit sorbet and fried alligator. SOmetimes it may even be talking to someone that is doing something interesting, and seeing how i can get involved. So, if you want to try something new, but you are cautious , i'll be glad to help.
