last post ever
I read two books this quarter because i didn't have enough pages. I would recomend them both. the first book was called The Warriors. It was a very realistic novel that explored what it realy means to belong. it followed a linear timeline and did very little skipping around. The second book was Lulaby by Chuck P., and it was very fantastical. it featured magic and other such unreal things. It did alot of time skipping and even skipped (chapter by chapter) between what is happening and what is comeing. It is a book with no clear moral, instead it makes you consider your life as well as what you value and even what a good book should be like.

My other two books didn't add up to enough pages so i read another one called Lullaby, by Chuck P. One male charecter was Patrick. Patrick is an infant that died at a few months old. The mother couldn't let go so she had him cryogenicaly frozen while she tried to find a magic spell to bring him back to life. He stayed frozen for over twenty years untill someone threw him across a room and he broke into little pieces.

I am reading "The Warriors" by Sol Yurik. it has 181 pages and I have already finnished it. the main charecter is named Hinton. His parents are on wellfare so he is always moving. He has never lived in the same neighborhood for more than two years, that along with unloving parents has left him alone and wandering in life. His lonelyness was kept back by his belonging to the Coney Island Dominators, a gang. It is not untill his life threatening journy across manhattan through enemy terretorys with a small group of warriors that he truely makes it home.

The Opposition
One major counterpoint to my arguement is that hate should not exist, and that everyone should be open to all other people no matter of what they look like or believe in. To that I have this to say, if you are so pro-acceptance of diversity, why can't you accept that some people are not tollerant? Just because you believe everyone is good doesn't mean everyone does. In trying to force your belief of diversity on haters you are destroying that diversity that means so much to you.
