Letters My Mother Never Read: An Abandoned Child's Journey

I just finish reading a book called "Letters My Mother Never Read: An Ababndoned Child's Journey" Its a really sad book. The characters in the book are Jerri the 8 year old, Billy the oldest one, Trevor and Tyler the twins, and Alice the baby born. I really liked the book and I hope the next person that reads it likes it too.


  "Why do you hate us so much?"Isay to her.
   "When my mommy was here, you gave us milk
    and cookies and let us sit in your kitchen."
           For the first time since we arrived, Grandma
   Resuba looks me full in the face.Her eye bore into
  mine, blazing with hatred. She spits out her reply
      
         "Your mother was nothing! My son had no
  business marrying a women with four kids." Her voice
  rises higher as she rages on.
 
         "Ill never forgive her for marrying my son.
         I'm glad she's dead, only now im stuck with you
    miserable brats! Every penny and minute i spend
   with you takes away from what i should be giving to
   Alice. She's my flesh blood, and you're nothing, just
   like your mother was."

         "She shouldn't be sitting with her brothers, dressed
    like that,"he said.
           Grandma Resuba snaps back, "Why not? They're
    alll the same; she's no different than the boys. Mind yout own
    busines."

      "Get ride of them before they contaminate Alice!"
   she demands. Billy feels so bad, but he was only trying 
   to help us.

Best Book

     I really liked the book alot it really made me think alot. It happened to Nancy really made me think alot about how to be careful with men and that always use protection when you have sex. It also made me think alot because how she got rapped was really cruel what guys do and i hope lots of girls read this book so they can know and realize how guys are so cruel. . . .well some. But i hope who ever reads it think its such a really good book and like it as much as i did.

It Happened to Nancy

I just finished reading “It Happened to Nancy.” The book was really interesting because it was about a girl name Nancy that fell in love with a college freshman. She met him in a concert when she was having a asthma attack. The book is really interesting because when they are on a date she gets rape by him because they got drunk and days later she got sick and her mom took her to the hospital to see what she had and she had the HIV Virus. After she turn 15 she died April 12 Two days after he last entry....What i liked about the book was that it was interesting and it talk alot about her and what happened to her and alot of things she wanted to do. I also liked the book because it helps lots of teens to be careful with what they are doing and to always use protection. But i really liked it alot and it helped me too and i hope that the other people that read it like teens  understand and be careful with what they do. . .
