Eleanor and Park
Literary Luminary
1. Page 9
paragraph one
This part of the  book was funny to me because it was cute that Park let Eleanor sit down but he did it in such a aggressive way.

2.Pages 27&28
Paragraphs 7,8,9,1,&2
This part is weird because it explains how Eleanor's sister hated Richie but is now calling him dad. I find this weird and wonder whether she wants to call him dad or is forced.

3.Page 68
paragraphs 5&6
This part of the book is upsetting because Park goes to apologize to Eleanor and Richie ruins it for her. Then when he sister asks if that was her boyfriend, Eleanor has to reply that hes just a boy.

4.Page 40
paragraph 5-7
This part is when Park gives Eleanor a comic to borrow and he feels like shes not going to give it back but she returns it. I like this part of the book because this is where i feel their relationship actually started to bloom.

Side affects may vary investigator

For this week in invetigated the cost of a funeral because Alice was very close to death. The first thing I searched up was how much the casket would cost. They range from about 2,000-10,000. It really depends how what kind of casket you buy. Cemetery's using cost like 7,000-10,000 including burial in the cemetery, services at the funeral home, and  headstone. The cost of flowers and others would be extra depending how what and how much you get. 

Side affects may vary discussion director

D1. Do you believe Alice has matured since the beginning of the book? I think that finally Alice has understood that 2 wrongs don't make a right but I don't think she will give up all of her bad ways.

2. Do you think Harvey's and Alice's relationship will blossom? I think their relationship will blossom because Alice has finally accepted that fact that she wants to be with Harvey. I still do believe there will be ups and downs but they can be able to get passed it.

3. How can you connect the book to your life? I can connect the book to my life because I've known people with can we and I know that it's a very difficult thing to go through. 

4. Predict what the sequel of the book would be like? I think the sequel would be about Alice's and Harvey's relationship and I feel like it would give us some closure about the relationships with Alice, celest, Luke, and mindi.

5. How do you feel about the book and characters overall? I feel that the characters in the book had very bad personalities and attitudes. Not all of them such as Harvey or Natalie but most of them. I felt the book was fantastic and it taught us to know what's right and what's wrong.
