A Walk to Remember. :)

         In A Walk to Remember, Jamie Sullivan was always considered as the outcast. She was the daughter of an old minister who loved her very much. Both Jamie and Landon had the lead roles in their winter play.   Jamie was the last person Landon wanted to spend time with, but he needed some help with his lines. After spending a lot of time together Landon found out that Jamie had more to her than anyone ever considered. Jamie taught him to find forgiveness, and teaches him how to be a good and compassionate person. After spending a lot of time with her he ended up falling in love with her. Then the mood of the book is suddenly         changed when Jamie tells Landon her secret; she has cancer.

14-Year-Old at War

          A 14 year old boy, who was wanted for killing and working for the Mexican Cartel, is captured by the Mexican Army. Mexican authorities are not sure which laws and agencies would handle a minor for his outrageous crimes. Because I'm 14 years old, I know how Edgar Jimenez is thinking. I know the difference between right and wrong, and I believe he knows the difference between right and wrong too. Just because he's a minor, it still doesn't change the fact that he killed four people by cutting off their heads. I believe he knew what he was getting him self into, and he should get punished for his actions.
