Analysis of the Moon and More

 I am almost at the end of my book now. I can't wait to finish it, and if you have read my other blogs you can see that I have been reading probably alot longer than I typically read a 400-500 page book. But I'm going to predict that the main character Emmaline will eventually break up with Theo before either one of them leaves at the end of the summer. But  upon the stand point of their relationship right now it seems that it is a little bit maybe really stressful for Emmaline as she wants to tell Theo that she has done things that are really exciting to him but she has been around Colby her entire life. This only makes it harder as she knows he wasn't a typical teenager when he was younger because his parents were so strict especially about eduacation. So with that said I have to predidict the Emmaline is going to blow and it is going to be soon. Although I truly don't understand why her father avoids Emmaline's questions upon why he ignored her e-mail after he had told her he couldn't pay the tuition for her to go to the University of Colombia. So why he is avoid her questions? His adversion is almost like a plaque outbreak being avoided by the public, or in Incarceron where the father avoid to answer Claudia's question if Finn is the prince or not.

The Moon and More; Theme and Summary

           As you can tell I am still reading the same book but it is good not saying it's boring. I have currently just finished with chapter 14 I have to say was extremely interesting. There were alot of events that occured during this chapter. The setting of the chapter was in CapeFrost at a Panasian restaurant. Where Emmaline has dinner with her two good friends and Theo. At this dinner it gets akward as Theo pushes Emmalines friends out oftheir  comfort zone. Making them feel uncomfortable. After their dinner they run into Clyde with a flat tire with some mysterious things in his vehicle. This only leads to to a higher build up to the already akward situation. For example "We all just sat there for a second the awkwardness like another person at the table. What a disaster, I thought. Beside us, the tourists were laughing, having a blast. Of course." ... "Theo said, finally," the thing is, I, um, didn't really get to do the dinner-dance, prom thing in highschool. Like, at all. I know all this fanfare was kind of stupid, with the cake and sparklers, the big reveal..." (pg 291). This little snid bit from the chapter show how it's not completely awkward but they feel bad for him and yet again it is another thing Theo never did and wants to do it now. Although Emmaline and her friends have done practically every thing in town that Theo thinks is so extravegant and new but truly it is the same boring thing to locals. With that statement you can see that all things are seen differently by all kinds of people and relating to the awkward situation they are in you can see that it might not seem that way to someone else, and it can sometimes be hard to accept the person/personality. That is also how it has gone so far throughout the course of the text with Emmaline's friends trying to adjust to Theo as he feel everything is cool and exciting to him but not to them. Those changes affect each event and how the turn out throughout the course of the text and so far it's not so good for her friends or family in hidden and not so hidden ways.

The Moon and More; Update

I haven't got much progress still sadly it's one of those books where it's not extremely long but takes forever to read. So far Emmaline has broken up with her long time boyfriend and on the same day kissed another guy (Theo) which in her view will only last the summer then when they go seperate ways it will not last. Also Margo is a annoy as ever with her systems she keeps adding to the family company to her eyes will make it more profitable. Final detail I will leave you with today is Emmalines friendship with her best friend which has become strained even though they won't admit it. It is the annoyance in her friends eyes I believe of Emmaline's  boyfriend who asked her to the summer bash that Emmaline goes with her every year. That concludes of what has happened so far in my reading, I will hopefully post soon on a recommendation to the book and a post on a new book!

The Moon and More; Characters #3

     This is an extension to the post of the other characters. Today I am going to give you details on two other characters in my book, Margo and Theo. Margo is one character that is present and you have a visual of her personality but she is not a main character. Theo on the other hand is a character that is slowly revealing as he gets more involved in Emmaline's life.
  
  Theo is an interesting character that at first you may think that he is pushy but you know that there is something hidden with in that you have to dive in and get to know them. For example " 'Oh, no ordering off the For the Americanos section!' Theo said. 'That's against table rules!'(pg. 288).This shows how he isn't use to people not doing something right or fast enough. That leads me into why I chose this photo for Theo because you know there is something on the cover you see but its in plain sight and there is something to uncovered. So the book cover It shows that the book might be scary, but it might not be scary(its scary) and you have to read into it to uncover the what it is about, and like Theo you have to uncover his true personality bit by bit. Also Theo is not as Emmaline expected as he grew up with rich parents going to bording school and very serious about school. When ever the topic of education comes up he dives head first plunging into a discussion that he prolongs past its ending point.With this little bit of information I have gathered on him I can already tell he is not what he seems and more.     

     Margo has a very nosy personality. What I mean by nosy is that she is always trying to get involved in everyone lives which she has no buisness in. And because of this Emmaline and Margo fight all the time, I have come to know that they bicker at each other a lot mainly about the buisness and Margo's new systems she has added.  For example in their daily Friday meetings, " 'If you start talking about khaki pants and denim shirts,' I warned her,' I am walking right out of here.'  'Emaline,' she shot back, 'I am tired of you always trying to bully me out of making needed changes. as my employee--' " (pg. 165). You could also say she very proud and stubborn as she is one of few in their family that has gotten a good degree so she brags all the time. There isn't much I can say about her though because she isn't mentioned a whole lot in the book so far. Also I chose this picture because the shadow symbolizes how she is always there and you may not realize it but as a shadow you may not see it but its there.
