Peace Love AND Baby DUCKS
This book is about the bittersweet relationship between two sisters Carly, and Ana as they both try to find themselves in the viscose cycle of high school. As they help each other along the way their are obstacles along the way, not only with each other but also with big topics like, racism and faith. The story is told by Carly's point of view, i really like this because, Carly shows Power and strength in her attitude and personality. Also Carly has a really good Ethics value on her so she knows what good and bad. Since she is the older sister she is the one that steers anna into the right direction even if the wrong way seems easier for both them, but on accasion Anna is always carly shoulder to cry on. But when both siblings get into a diffecult encounters, they remind themselves of a family saying "keep paddleing" ( from an experience Anna had with their father while practicingg swimming) that short saying always gives them the hope to get through their relationship or any other problems. While reading this book I often compared their relationship like a rubberband, because no matter how far people or themselves pull each other away from one another in the end its an impossible task. As sisters they have a bond that can never be broken, so they will always spring back together again.

I like how you compared their friendship to a rubberband and it really expresses their friendship. How they will be together no matter what. It sounds like a very good book. :)

I agree with what Elona said. But I think that in this post, you should focus more on your opinion,and show how certain reactions,etc. of the characters in the book, made you feel and also write more about/ elaborate on what they made you think about. You should also work on capitalizing the words (or letters) that have to be capitalized instead of random words (ex. in some parts you have " i" and " anna" that should be capitalized,but instead,you have " Ethics" in the middle of a sentence that shouldn't be capitalized. I also think you should work on spelling and grammar, and finishing the sentences. Meaning, you should add in the words that are suppose to be there ( because you sometimes leave words out). And put in the words that go with the sentence (ex. you have: " I often compared their relationship like a rubberband" when it should be: " I often compare their relationship to a rubber band." But besides these corrections, I think the post is very good! And I love the ending where you make the comparison to a rubber band! Nice job.
