I started notice that things are not always what they seem to be through reading the book Tyrell by Coe Booth. I started to read a few of Coe Booth books and I noticed that the protagonist are all similar. All the protagonist are going through something in life whether its good or bad. Reading Coe Booth books you get to notice a different side of life. The main character has a lot going on , Tyrell is living in a small dirty motel his dad is locked up and he has no money. But Tyrell doesnt let that get to him he uses something that most people dont even bother to use and thats his brain he starts finding different ways to make it in life without getting "Fast money" and doing the wrong thing.
This book makes you realize what it takes to be a strong person and a leader in life. Reading this book I kept
thinking wow some people in the world really have to go through this, I should be thankful for my family and what we have. For me I can understand things clearly through the text and reading. One day going pass Ikea I decided to go by the public housing and see things for myself. As I walked and observed I noticed that things arent so bad after all, reading Tyrell the book makes it seem like the projects are so bad , but its home for people. Overall I connect with the main character, working hard at something can let you achieve so many new things in life. I highly do diagree with not going to school. Tyrell has so much to offer is he just goes to to school. Does his mother even care about? If she cared she would be making him go to everyday, and she would be the "adult" working trying to provide for the family, not Tyrell. HE'S ONLY 15. She needs to realize that theirs so much more in life than just laying on your back waiting for a check
No matter how hard we try we are the same. We are able to make change to the people around us like friends and family, but first we have to change ourselves. Overall reading the book Tyrell i was taught many things and I have experienced so amny things about what goes in many different people life. Also I noticed tghat who we are is based on the people that surrounds us.

Milk Weed
I have just started this book and I am already so engage. I'm not sure what the protagonist name is he's a boy called Jew. Gypsy. Stopthief. Filthy son of Abraham. Stopthief is a kid who lives on the street and steals from people to make a living sometimes people ignore them but I was shocked when Uri didn't. Uri was beginning to raise him like his own and I know that Stopthief was elated because would. After you came from no where to a place where someone can give you clean clothes, wash you up, and do your hair is great. If was in Stopthief shoes would be very greatful, but also scared. Living in tthat time frame you see wat the "Jack Boots" would do to the Jews. I wish that Stopthief would notice but he seems way too friendly to. I wonder if Uri ad his friends will do omerhing, ty eem like they can be great heros. I am excited to read more about tis bookB

CHEATER?
I am so thrilled to be able to contiue reading this suspenseful book. Every day I read more and more and I get so attached to the book and the haunting of it. I am very elated that Brooklyn has finally opened up to Nico it took a long time because i feel that fear has taken over her. Little did Brooklyn know Lucca is going trough the samething so maybe both of tem can find ways to help eachother. I feel that Nico and Brooklyn maybe getting just a little bit too close. Brooklyn did something that may have spun Nico the wrong way, I find this very INSANE! Wouldnt Lucca be very angry at Brooklyn and Lucca? Would Gabe start to come haunt Nico now too? Theres so many questions to be answered. Also i find it intteresting that Gabe is beginning to come closer to Brooklyn every day wheather its in her dream or out of no where. But at the same time Lucca is also visiting her constantly. I hope Lucca soon tell Nico why he needs to help Brooklyn so much.
