Chapters 6-8 COLOR OF WATER.

Chpt. 6- The New Testament, this chapter made me assume some big change had happened from now and earlier in chapter 5 witch is titled the old testament. I didn't really notice a change like i thought but, i noticed a quote "what color is gods spirit." said by Ruth and i thought that was a very interesting question for her to ask.

Chpt. 7- Sam, is the name of this title but i didn't really udertsand why, because this chapter soley focuses on the KKK and their hate for blacks and jews. this chapter also talks about Ruths hate for the south and all the hate in it.

Chpt. 8- this chapter is called brothers and sisters, i personally thought this chapter was kind of funny because it was james' description and jokes about his house with his mother watching 12 kids and all the chaotic things that happened.

chapters 2-5 COLOR OF WATER

Chapter 2-  The name of this chapter is "Bicycle". I believe this is the name of the chapter because Ruth rides he bike a lot through the black neighborhoods. I think she rode her bike so much because she was trying to clear her head after her second husband died.

Chpt.3- the name of this chapter, is Kosher. This title led me to believe this chapter had to do something with Jewish people. turns out my thought was right and the chapter has to do with Ruth's parents that were polish Jews. Ruth's parents also had an arranged marriage.

Chpt. 4-  Black power, this chapter is about James realizing that he is adopted. Beings how he is black and his mother was white with a different background then he had. I feel like being a black kid with a white mom back in that time would be very rough on a kid.

Chpt. 5- The old Testament, this chapter is similar to chapter 3, kosher, in the ways that it talks about Ruth and her poor Jewish family as well as her father continuing to try and make a life for his family by being a rabbi but he fails over and over.

Great Gatsby Cover

it appears to have the face of a flapper in the background
as well as the city, maybe new York
maybe some fireworks.


Flapper face- appears to be the face of the flapper that is probably important in the book

The City- Possibly New York, probably a popular important city in the book to the author

Fireworks?- possibly fireworks near the city, to show some sort of celebration

the paradox from the book i see is the quiet calm city and then the loud bright fireworks they seem to be opposites.

how does the title relate to the book itself?
A: flapper and city are probably important.

Great gatsby guesses

i think that gatsby will die of alchoholism

I like the talk about how much she is going through with things like the divorce.
I can tell how that defiantly could be affecting some things.
divorce is a big part of a kids life, it not only affects the parents it highly affects the children as well, so through the divorce it is extremely hard on the kid and confusing to why their mom and dad arent together anymore.

I HEAR

I hear the future
The past is in my rear view mirrors
I'm going 100 miles per hour leaving it in the dust
I see the future like a big rock in the middle of the road
