Connecter-Week 2

Text to World: This book is related to the outside world because a lot of people have very rough marriages that go downhill and there are also people who are lazy. Janine's sister, Amy, experiences that. Amy is going through a rough marriage because she has to do everything: work,clean,etc., while her lazy husband can't keep a job. He also he hits her sometimes. They keep breaking up and then getting back together. But finally she listens to her sister,Janine, and breaks up with him for good.

Text to World: A lot of people also have hard relationships with their dads for certain reasons,like Janine. He doesn't really like her dad because he is perverted and inappropriate. For example, when Janine was having her graduation party. Janine got a phone call from her dad saying that he was coming to her apartment for the party. She was wondering who told him about it. When he got there the first thing he did was hug Janine and wouldn't let her go,and also told her she had nice legs. He was being perverted once again.

Text to World: Sometimes people find their true love know matter how long it takes, whatever they have to do, or to act a certain way. But Janine didn't do any of that. She found the love of her life by being herself. Even though her husband Kurt left his wife for Janine, he took his kids with him. And now they are her step-children and she loves them very much. She didn't have to do anything manipulative to get what she wanted. They love each other very much.

  1. I like how you put a lot of detail into what you were writing about. Like how Amy's life is like a rollercoaster. Shes with him she not with him she with him over and over again. Her father is very perverted. I would have told him the party was canceled and told him to go home. I would have never let him come to my party even though hes my dad. I glad she found someone that cares about her and loves her. Those kids even though they are her STEP children she counts them as her own.
