    The resolution in The Vinyl Princess, was atrocious because it was very confusing and awkward. One example of this is towards the end of the book, Allie and Zach, Your Berkeley Fan, finally meet but never officially become a couple. This was very upsetting, making a book about a girl trying to find love in a small run down place makes the reader want to see them be a couple. Yvonne also included awkward moments in their “dates”, for example she says, "'You got a blog figured out for tomorrow,…

    There are many differences occurred in the book and the movie of A Wrinkle In Time and And Then There Were None. I believe the director changed the movie so the viewers would understand it more and so the movie won’t be 5-6 hours long.

    1. What do you find is the most crucial in the plot in Chapter 1? There are several things that I actually found interesting within this chapter. One of those was the contrast established by wealthiness. It seemed that rich people used to live among gossips and rumors in order to judge whether or not dealing with certain kind of people. When Nick is leaving Daisy´s house she asks him to wait because she: "forgot to ask something, and it's important." "We heard you were engaged to a girl out West…

    Another striking factor embedded within the novel which contributes to the memorability of the novel is its fascinating language.

There is much use of the traditional and original fairytale terms throughout the novel for…
