Discuss the scene where Okonkwo beats his wife during the Week of Peace. Five minutes in pairs, then we share.” The room filled with the rustle of pages and low murmurs.

Parents gone. Trust shattered. A body that had betrayed her. And a love that had waited too long. Jaden stayed. Trisha stayed. Aunt May stayed. But grief stayed too. Waiting.

“Then you’ve already won half the war.” They walked home together, through markets buzzing with noise, past hawkers shouting prices, past boys drumming on paint buckets. Promise slowed to listen. The rhythm was rough but alive. She smiled, dropped her last coin into their bucket, and walked on. Ajegunle greeted her with its usual chaos: generators coughing, radios clashing, children racing barefoot. But tonight, it felt less like a cage and more like a forge.

There were only a couple of other kids that chose to read over the computers. I browsed the bookshelf searching for a book to read, my step-father set fire to all my books in the wheel barrow when he first moved in with us. I picked a book up from the shelf, my father had bought me it before he died, I was surprised to see it in a school library. The Darkest Minds.

"I'm Aaron." Peeking up from behind my book I saw a guy staring at me with a huge grin on his face. I had no idea how long he had been

Tonya made a moan of disgust and walked towards the small kitchen to get her chores done for the brief moment Thaddeus was out of the house. Thaddeus slept round the clock. It was a dip of fresh air for Tonya, this was the only moment she got herself to read. She always imagined living in a fancy house with a massive archive of books in her library. If she had the power, her house would be just a huge library. She smiled at herself as the thought crossed her mind once again.

I honestly hope my book reaches out to people out there. Some of the things this book is going to surround on would be,

But as I sat in the apartment I’d bought with Xander’s money, while reporters dug into my family’s scandals and my stepsister told the world I was too boring to love, survival felt impossible. The only thing I knew for certain was that my life, as I’d known it, was over.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Her legs still pace until she collapses onto the edge of her bed, a sigh escaping her lips. Another thing Nathanael hates about Secs, they have a flair for the dramatic-always whining and crying when things don't go their way. Instead of working for something, they attempt to pray it into existence. He's witnessed the power of prayer first hand, but he harbors no sympathy for those that don't fight for what they want. This one seems to be in the latter category. Throwing his arm back over his eyes, he zones out while this new charge of his rummages around her room.
