Romeo and Juliet (L)

William Shakespeare knew that every reader's attention is caught with one small detail that gives away the whole book. since the very beginning he starts giving us clues and different ways of telling us that at the end the two lovers will die after all they were sentenced to death b/c of there family. simply shakespeare by telling us that romeo and juliet (the forbidden lovers) are to die it informs us and makes us all curious b/c we want to know how it happens b/c according to a lot these days we think and know that love is unbreakable and no one or thing can overpower love. however shakespeare tells us that but also tells us the contratry by killing them. I think that he writes in a unique and hard way of writting. Shakespeare does many things that is unique such as ... the way he tells us the end at the beginning to get our attention and also how he makes everyone tell romeo and juliet the ending but as character they cant do much! ..... i love how romeo and juliet's characters and how they act and making everything so fast like i mean the whole play is like 4 days. ... Romeo and Juliet is a love story that grabs our attention from the very first line!...

honestly what i think is that if someone wanted to steal from me that wouldnt be necessary if they asked i would give it to them not careing about my statues. i think that if i had to choose between death and stealing i rather die than steal because stealing is not only wrong but it is againt my belief i think that i rather recieve something than take it from someone who either worked so hard to get it or is in the same position as me or worst ... If i saw someonw hungry even though he is not starving and im walking on the street with a sandwich than i woul give them the sandwich because i could get more ... 

The Concept of Stealing!

Stealing is a harsh word, many people try to avoid it. The ones who don't avoid stealing avoid the consequences which is still very bad.  Sometimes in life there moment when you feel the urge to steal just like Liesle and Rudy in the book. However, that is a very wrong thing to do they could work instead of stealing or even ask someone to lend them money (as long as they pay it back) or something. For example, the poor farmer worked so hard and the kids just stool the thing as if they were easy to get. instead of doing that they could of asked the old man to give them a job or something like that. My point is that stealing is wrong weather your dying or weather your fine. The fact that you stool or that you were planing on stealing is incorrect.

In my opinion i predict that Leisel will become smarter however smarter with both correct information that can help her be be a good person and incorrect information that she might use for bad. She might use the book to stop bad.  i really don't know the book thief so much so i couldn't say anything. However i think that by stealing she might be trying to make a change so she might be doing good. Most likely Leisel will die at the end but during the whole story we will find out more about her and she will get reunited with her mother at some point. And she will know more about her family.
