This chapter focuses on Nite Owl and Silk Spectre. The chapter opens with Laurie in Dan’s basement workshop where she is exploring his airship and accidentally mistakes a flamethrower for a dash lighter. Dan is on edge, as costumed heroes are being targeted (the Comedian dead, Dr. Manhattan left to Mars, Veidt was almost shot, and Rorschach got arrested). Laurie is impressed with Dan’s airship and equipment. Their relationship is clearly starting to grow more romantic. We learn that Dan’s father…

scene was unnecessary since the main characters already learned their lesson, there was no point in repeating the same thing again. If the book had one last chapter I assume the author would have had senior Devi talk to her future self. Basically it would repeat the plot over in a shorter amount of time. As I reader I would want the last chapter to be an interaction between freshman Devi, senior Devi and adult Devi. It would definitely be interesting to see how much she has changed over time…

Rys acquires another sweet animal to care for in the home, hearing about his animals always seems to lighten the mood for me. Antonia is such a underrated hero. She is selflessly risking her life to protect people, some of which she did not know previously. Antonia’s friend Magdalena Gross is rather naïve in my opinion due to her stubborn ways of…

Chapter 6 discussed the distinct characteristics of primates and how they compare to other mammals and the text highlights some specific traits to consider. Along with arboreal adaptation-or the ability to live in trees- and diet plasticity, primates also practice parental investment. Instead of having hundreds or thousands of offspring, primates will invest more time and attention to a very small number of offspring that are smarter, more socially involved, and have greater chances of reaching…

In Amos chapter 2 and 3, Amos is speaking about the many social offenses that the people of Israel have committed. Because of the social offenses, Amos brings these sins to the public’s attention. Amos blames and accuses Israel of the sins of sexual immorality, abuse towards the poor, and the mistreatment of the temple.

Her illness…
