Blog 3

I don't know if i'm quite so into this book as i thought i would be, but i still have enjoyed it! Honestly, I haven't had that much time to read it just because I've been reading In the Time of the Butterflies so much... (which i love by the way AND i've been reading when i'm suppose to so i'm all caught up!)

For this blog, i am going to elaborate about what i think about a quote.... which is the following:
" my mother's condition quickly grew to dictate our lives." this quote explains how annabels mom became depressed to a certain point were it would effect the girls lives as well. they always knew if she was going to have a good day or bad day by the way she looked/dressed in the morning. If annabel woke up and her mom was in the kitchen, making breakfast at a decent hour, she was in a good mood, and seemed like she was going to have a better day. If their dad was in the kitchen instead of their mom or there was cold cereal and toast, that meant their mom was still in bed and going to have a bad, rough day. anabelle really goes through so much, especially loosing her best friend after getting in a very sassy fight, a mom that is depressed severely and a sister with an eating disorder. so far, i feel like annabel is handleing the situations well, and not freaking out quite yet. i honestly don't know what i would do without a mother. my mom means the world to me and i could never live without her because my family would be totally lost. it's different because i don't have any sisters and annabel has all sisters. but at some points i wish i did have an older sister to look up to. i'm very thankful for my family and brothers.
