I think the book is about friendship and grief‚ it shows the influence of grief on friendship. I think with these two themes you can come up with an amazing story but I find that the writer did not utilise these themes as much as she could. She just illustrates a really bad friendship in which grief and acceptance is just not enough convincing. So the book is also about the friendship between Anna and Frankie and to me it feels that remaining their friendship has no purpose‚ the first problem that

The World is Too Much With Us is a sonnet written when Wordsworth was 32 years old and is the perfect example of his message about the insensibility of man towards the beauty of nature. Written when the Industrial revolution was at its peak‚ it appears that to him‚ the world known to man is of too much beauty to be understandable by his fast moving pace and attachments to materialism; “Little we see in Nature that is ours; We have given our hearts away‚ a sordid boon!” This extract can be construed

Not only had Chime done well for
