So I have finished my book and to be honest I was kind of disappointed. Not that it's a bad book but I though it was going to be a book about war but instead talks about the life of a small girl growing up during the Chinese Cultural Revaluation and explaining the hardships. But its still good but not my kind of taste.

I would recommend this book to any one who likes historical fiction. I say this because the Chinese Cultural Revaluation was a real thing, and I do recommend this book to anyone who likes that genre because its written in first person and it's also kind of an auto biography because the person who wrote this went through it when it was happening. So yea that is why i would recommend this book to any one who falls into that category.

Conflict
The conflict in the book would have to be man vs society because little green has to fight the Chinese Cultural Revaluation. This is a conflict for her because all her life she has only known the life during the Chinese Cultural Revaluation, but her getting used to this life doesn't mean its easier for her. That makes it more of a conflict because she never knew her dad because he was sent to a labor camp when she was very young.




Character analyses

Little Green- Little green is persevering. I say this because throughout the book there is many obstacles that she has to overcome and she gets through them and especially in this time which is even harder due to the Chinese Cultural Revaluation. Like one of the times when her mom would have to work all day and and first she was left with total strangers because she had just moved there and didn't know anyone. But she got through this and adapted to a whole new environment.

Little Green: Blog post five

I have started a new book and it is called Little Green: Growing up during the Chines cultural revolution.  The reason I like this book because China is one of my favorite countries to learn about because for one it is one of the longest lasting civilizations that was like an empire, and second its kind of a weird reason to choose why but I have this video game that takes place in future China so I wanted to learn about the history too through someone's eyes. So I am liking it so far.

Summary

My book is about a girl named Little green. She was born right at the start of the Chinese cultural revolution so this is basically the only life that she has known. When she was young her dad was sent to a work camp because their country's leader said that their country was built on labor and prosperity.Then Her mom was moved into the country to teach schools their. There her and her younger brother live there along with twelve other families. Their grandma has come to help take care of them.I left off when Little green is awoken to her mom getting up at midnight and marching through town as part of the Chinese cultural revolution.

So I had just finished the book and I really liked it. It was really good. The beginning also started really good because it was like one of those movies that show something important in the beginning but you don't know that that was important later in the movie so then your all like Ahhhhhh, that was what that was. In the book I actually had favorite character in the book and that is actually very rare because I rarely get this into a book but this one I really liked. I liked the Grandma because she is actually pretty funny because on the surface she seems like a little sweet old lady with slight mental issues. But when she feels like it she could be the worst person and push Jazz to the breaking point.

Recommendations

I would recommend this book to anyone who like gory adventure/mystery and thriller books. this book is kind of like a mystery because since there is a new serial killer in town no one know who it is. They call him "The imperfections" because of the message he left in Jazz's room. This is also a thriller and adventure because the people of the town are starting to blame Jazz, so he has to find this killer before anything else happens. He also solves a few deaths along the way, no biggie.There many twist and turn and I don't want to say too much so you see for yourself. This book is also very similar to one of my favorite shows which is Dexter because they both hunt killers except dexter hunts and kill them and Jazz just bring them to the cops. A major similarity though is that both their dads taught them how to be killers and get away, theres a difference there to because Jazz was taught how too kill anyone and how to get away with it. Dexter was taught how to hunt down killers and find the and kill them, so in a way Jazz was taught to use his powers for good and Dexter was taught how to use his powers for good. But over all the book is really good, you won't  want to put it down at some points just so you could find out what happens. So yea I really recommend you pick this book up ad try it out if you think you fall into any of those categories I mentioned in the begging.

Conflict
One of the main conflicts on the book would have to be man vs self. If u actually look a little closer you could clearly see the conflict that Jazz is having with himself. He keeps saying that he is going to end up like a serial killer and that he doesn't want to kill anybody, but from the start you could tell that he is a good person and that he wasn't going too be like that because he would help cops solve murders especially G. William's whom he was very close with because he was the one that found Jazz when they had arrested his father. He was also a good person because he cared and loved his grandma even though she would get him at times, and he also cared deeply about his girlfriend connie because since Jazz was a pretty dark person and kept to himself, Connie was the only person that he would open up to (and his friend Howie.)So overall he was a good person with a few flaws here and there, but he was so afraid that he is going to be like his father and kill people even though deep down he knows he's not and is just afraid of his past. A good way to see this is like a skinny girl keep on saying that she is fat.

Character analysis
Connie  Hall- She is very nice but the most noticeable traits for her are that she is kind, loving and mostly supportive.I say she is kind because whenever she goes over to Jazz's house i could tell she is very polite because of how nice she is to the grandma even though she knows how she could be mean to Jasper and get him super angry. She is kind and loving because of the way that she is so affectionate towards Jazz and because in the book every time they meet they greet each other with kisses and Jazz says that she is one of the only people in his life that he really cares about. She is also very supportive towards Jazz too. The reason that I say this is because Jazz is  going through really tough times right now because there is a new serial killer in town and people are starting to think that Jazz is starting to take after his father and kill people. Connie is helping him through this because she is like one of the only people that Jazz could talk to and she is constantly visiting him and going out and talking.

Character Analysis
Grandma- Jazz's Grandma is kinda out of cause of her age she getting old and since Jazz can't really live alone yet his grandma had moved in with him. So in a way they need each other because Jazz can't live on his own yet and Grandma needs to be taken care of too because of her age and mental state. But going back on topic she's your usual sweet old lady, sometimes. I say this cause when she's a sweet old lady she's usually somewhere else not physicality but mentally. I say that because in the book cops came to Jazzes aid and Jazz said that she there physically but not mentally because she was in some kind of 50's dance and she even danced with a cop. She also is quit cruel to because Jazz said that its hard to forget how cruel she is even though she mostly acts childish and lost. She knows how to push his buttons and she does and Jazz gets real mad and in the story it even said that he would spend a chunk of the day thinking on how to kill her.


Summery
So far in the book Jazz is on his way home a crime scene that is by a new serial killer in town. So far he has gotten 3 victims including a former classmate of jazz. When they leave he explains about how he is done trying to help the police because G. Williams said that he needs to stop worrying about these things and focus on school. So when Jazz gets home  its already 4 am he freaks out a little because he forgot his grandma was on the couch but then relaxes because she is ok. When he goes into his room he actually freaks out because on his wall in blood is written a massage saying that the person who wrote it, the "Imperfectionest" will never be as good as Jazz's father but he will rain terror. He calls the cops and they come over but don't find any evidence. When they leave they leave one squad car behind to take care of the house. The next day he doesn't go to school.
       

Native American: Will we be killed and Life on the Rez Blog

American Indians are a perfect example for marginalized groups because they were literally pushed aside and marginalize. The reason that was because they were literally pushed aside and marginalize because they were put into reservations, but in this article it talks about how the children were taken from there homes and tried to be brain washed into being American. I know that because Captain Prat said that he wanted to kill the indian and save the human inside. This is also a way that Indians could have been made to feel as if they didn't exist, because evan Prat said " kill the Indian". So that must have made them feel as if they didn't exist.

The purpose of Shanice Writing this essay to educate people of how the life on the rez is. I know this because in the article she talks about when she tells people that she lives on a rez that they automatically think that she lives in a teepee and wears feathers and common indian stereo types. So she wanted to teach us that this is incorrect. She said that she was like a normal teen age girl and like to watch mtv and did normal thing, but it's just that she has different customs and traditions that are different from other people and Native American culture is among the smallest know about so that is also why people think that these stereo types are true.
