I saw a lot of colorful lizards and frogs, very tall palm trees, and the dark blue ocean! When we first arrived in Texas, I got to see my grandparents and cousins over Thanksgiving. We faced divine meals and large amounts of desert, too! We also got to go fishing on a lake since my grandparents house lived right by it.…

The size of the trapper in the painting contributes greatly to the general triviality of the trapper. The tent and trees near the trapper tower over the trapper, thus drawing away from the attention given to him or her. He or she is also smaller than the mountains in the background, or even some of the trees in the almost-as-distant evergreens. The trapper is hunched over as well, and as…

    What they have us in, to transport all fourteen of us to the capital, could be accurately described as a house on wheels. It has multiple floors, working electricity and plumbing, and the entire color scheme is white. The monotony of it all is disconcerting, though I had been ensured that it is for the purpose of keeping us relaxed and peaceful on our way over to the Labyrinth. I 'm not sure if their decision to use that exact color is accomplishing that goal or not. There 's no way we wouldn 't…

I have been reading Jennifer Niven’s All the Bright Places and I am on page 185 out of 388. The novel takes place in Bartlett, Indiana and features the perspectives…
