Allison's Character In The Movie Allison
Alison's character varies vastly when comparing the start and end of the movie. In the beginning of the movie Allison was portrayed as a quiet, creepy, goth girl. As the movie transpires you can see her slowly open up to the group, participate in their conversations, and genuinely change the way she acts. During the scene in which the friends are sharing why they are in detention, Allison tricks claire into tell why she is really int with them. In previous scenes the most you saw from Allison was a few weird sounds, and expressions. Her development throughout the movie really makes you feel good about the ending, because all of the characters went through change, but hers was the most drastic. Allison’s shyness
Allison’s only sign of social

    The protagonist in my book, Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire, is named Abby Abernathy. Abby is your average 18 year old college student, or so it seems. Early in the book it is found out that Abby has an interesting past that has yet to be revealed to me. However, through what I have read it seems to me that Abby is dynamically developing. Abby starts out disgusted at the guy she meets at the fight club, (Travis, the books hunk).…

    The characters are developed so well. Psychological thrillers, such as Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, can be hard to write, because the reader almost always has to know what the characters are thinking, and this has to be done while developing a plot. There was nothing in particular that I didn’t enjoy about the book. The final confrontation with Andy was climactic, despite my expectations of an anticlimactic ending like what usually occurs in books read for school. Anderson even developed Andy well enough that when Melinda was holding a piece of glass to his neck, I didn’t want her to kill him, despite his having raped her. In the aftermath of this confrontation, Melinda’s goal is to finish her tree before the school year ends. One girl sees her and congratulates her on defeating Andy. Melinda finishes the tree, and recognizes the fact that it is perfect because of its imperfections. This is an amazingly written ending, and a great conclusion to a great novel. Most loose ends are tied up, and the ones that aren’t resolved, such as Rachel calling Melinda after the fight, were supposed to be left for interpretation. The ending was satisfying, and not simply because it had a happy ending. The ending satisfies because it was realistic. Anderson could have simply written that Rachel believed Melinda when she was initially told that Andy raped Melinda, and then everything ends happily ever after. Instead, Rachel is infuriated, the same way a real teenager would, and is in denial, which is a natural human response to negative emotions. The fight is also realistic, because Melinda legitimately defeats Andy on her own without any form of dumb luck. This was an amazingly written…

    In other words, she sees the looks teachers give her, and it inspires her to do better in her school work and prove to them that her image does not define her personality. Her mother tries to get her to act like the rich kid she is, but the more her mother tries, the more she rejects the idea and rebels. She wears black and dyes her hair unnatural colors to hide where she really comes from, a rich family. She also hides her love for playing piano because she does not want to be classified as a rich kid, but doing so gets classified as a punk or a goth. Antonia, the other main character, is classified as smart or a teacher’s pet, so a teacher’s pet and a punk; that is not usually the types that are best friends. In the beginning of the book, they did not even want to be seen together. By the end of the book , that did not matter anymore because they were proud of each…

    She was very mature for her age and her actions reminded me of myself as a little girl. Her sassy and confident attitude made me laugh at times. I also enjoyed how Holden didn’t realize the real problem in his life, was himself. As he was judging others for the qualities he found irritating he wasn’t able to see himself displaying those qualities himself, whom I believed caused many problems throughout the story. 2.…

    The reasons why I think this are she has so many thoughts and feelings she shares after she gets new information that lead me to believe she has a strong sense of self awareness and tries to make sure she stays on the right path as much as possible. An example inviting little Amy Dunn into her mother Cory’s school and taking on the responsibilities to care for her while in class. Even Amy Dunn’s mother did not seem like she was very responsible, but Lauren is different and a year younger. Lauren can also see that it is much better for you to stay out of trouble and make sure you listen to your parents for the most part. Whereas many kids in her neighborhood are not Lauren is actually trying her best to build something and survive.…
