      The book I am currently reading is The Cure For Death by Lightning by Gail Anderson-Dargatz. "Morley Boulee, the man who shot the bear that killed Sarah Kemp." The archetype I chose for this book was a herald. The quote describes a girl being killed by a bear. This event is what everyone in the town is talking about and it has made everyone paranoid about what is in the woods. The quote explains this because Morley Boulee went and shot the bear who killed Sarah.

 The book I have just finished reading is Corps of the Bare-Boned Plane By Polly Horvath. This book is told in four different peoples perspective. "She sat down in a clearing, pulling her knees up to her chest. Then I could not have been more surprised by what came next: she put her head down on her knees and started to sob." I think this quote describes Jocelyn very well because the person who is watching her (Meline) is shocked by what she is seeing. Jocelyn is a person who is always polite and is strong. At least that is what she comes across as, but deep inside her is a depressed girl, who acts like nothings wrong. She just puts on a brave face through everything the girls have to deal with. 



I chose this video because i think that it describes Jocelyn because she is stuck in a world she hates. She thinks no one can save her because her parents are gone and has no one else but she's wrong.
