Book Review for Wise Blood

My Novel is Wise Blood by Flannery O'Conner. The genres of my book is fiction and southern Gothic.  The main character's in Wise are Hazel Motes who is from Eastrod, Tennessee, Enoch Emory, Asa Hawks, Sabbath Lily Hawks, Mrs. Flood, and Onnie Jay Holly. In this novel Hazel Motes is having trouble with dealing with his religion and what path he would like to follow in life, so he results to founding a Church without Christ, because of seeing Asa Hawks with his daughter preaching one day. While Hazel was preaching one day Holly joined as one of his disciples, but it caused a conflict between the two when Hazel found out that Holly was using his foundation as a source of income and Hazel did not like that. Enoch Emery met Hazel while he was watching Asa Hawks preach and followed Hazel around, but all along he was dealing with mental health issues and trying to fight his "inner animal". The novel was in all actually interesting and different from anything else I've re

Reflection

Today’s lesson on writing a body paragraph was very interesting. I learned that I have a problem with finding my claim and giving suporting details to back it up. It is extremely difficult for me to not overthink the prompt and to wonder off of topic. I realized that I have to be wise on what claims I choose to back up my thesis statement because I will need to be able to have a claim that I can adress in different ways and from multiple events.

Today has been a wonderful day and I refuse to let anything ruin my mood. My Calculus class was pretty intense today because of the difficult problems but all I could do is try and keep working until I get a clear understanding. The rest of my school day was filled with work until after school when I had work outs again. I am extremely tired and sore from all the working out but it will all pay off. The rest of my day will be consisted of laying in the bed and possibly laying in the bed on my phone.

Weeknd Blog:  My weekend has been quite interesting. Friday I had a dress consultation and it went pretty well but I know its going to be pretty expensive because Im reall extra and spoiled. After my dress consultation I was supposed to go to cook out but I ended up going to the gym with my boyfriend and bestfriend and I really enjoyed myself. Saturday I had a 10 hour shift at work so trust me I didnt do anything that day, I was extremely tired. Sunday was good I learned that in all situations that I have to be strong and deal with my problems alone and everything doesnt need a reaction. Thats all becaue a great talk that I had with my boyfriend.

Reflection/ Daily Blog

Reflection: In the letters we read today Celia has seen Shug Avery for the first time. Shug Avery is very which could be the reason why she was so rude to Celie during their first encounter by calling her ugly. Shug is extremely rude while she has been staying in Mr.____ house. She seems ungrateful and very stubborn when it comes to being served. Mr.____ Is giving off the idea that they were inlove , but from Shug’s actions it seems as if they didnt have a relationship at all. When Shug is introduced in the letter I didnt like her because she was very when all Celie did was care for her and idolize her even though she didn’t know that. Shug eventually started to warm up to Celia and Im excited to see how far their friendship go and if Celie would gain a female companion. Daily Blo I actually had a good day today beausee I wasn’t irritated today and I actually had a good time taking my senior portraits. After school I worked out and my legs were burning sooo bad. Im really tired so

Reflection: In the Color Purple Mr.____ has been moping around since he has found out hat Shug Avery is in town. He was happy in the beginning but afterwards he became depressed and through that situation is showed how Celie and Mr.____ didn't have the bond that would be created during marriage. While dealing with that situation Harpo has found a women that he loves and he impregnated her hoping that her father would approve of his life with Sophia, his girlfriend. I don't understand why Mr.____ doesn't like Sophia because she hasn't done anything but still Harpo's heart. Harp sees that his dad will not approve of their relationship, but he married her anyway. When he married her their marriage seemed from the outside but on the inside they were struggling with roles because Sophia wasn't listening to Harpo. Harpo asked Celie for advice and she told him to beat Sophia which only made the situation worse. In my opinion Sophia shouldn't have told Harpo that
