My companion book is Ashes by Kathryn Lasky and I am on page 224 out of 309. So far nothing really big has happened. Hitler became Chancellor and all of the people are scared that he is going to hurt the jews but nothing like that has happened yet. There is something weird going on with Gaby's teacher though, she gets in a black limo with someone who opens the door for her and Gaby and Rosa are trying to figure out who this mystery man is but instead are invited to a Christmas tea at the teachers house. The roles that I have seen so far are that of Hitler being in power and all the jews are scared, but other than that I only know that Rosa is a jew so Gaby doesn't want anything to happen to her. The teacher stands up in the class and solutes Hitler so I started to wonder if she is part of the Nazi party as well but I don't know yet. As of now it doesn't really relate to Night at all because nothing has happened to any of the jews yet.

I had the lens theory of feminism and I thought that the book had a lot of opportunities to get some quotes for that topic. I did find many connections that were very detailed and I found some that were not. I think that if I could change it I would choose to keep the one I had because there were examples of feminism all throughout the book. I think that out of the lens theory's that were given that the feminism one was the easiest.

I am going to change my original thought and say that Daisy is. I think she is the most dangerous because she is very sneaky. She sneaks around and goes to 'tea' with Nick but she is actually visiting Gatsby. Of course at first she didn't know that's what was going to happen but then she still sneaks over to Gatsbys house after that to visit him. When they go to town she gets so mad that she also hits Myrtle Wilson with the car but doesn't even stop. She also 'escapes' after the hit and run because she doesn't want to get in trouble so her and Tom pack and leave. That's why I think Daisy is the most dangerous character in the book!

I think that maybe Nick is the most dangerous character in the book so far because he seems to be the one who everyone goes to to tell information to thinking it will be safe. He has all these people telling him things about each other and he still talks to the others. I feel like soon he's going to end up telling someone information that isn't meant to get back to them. That's why I think Nick is the most dangerous.

I would be Indigo Burns from Worth A Thousand Words because she is following her dreams to do what she really wants to do.
