Bitterblue By Kristin Cashore
Sometimes people improvise lies to escape from a specific situation, but they don't understand the consequences until it is too late. This issue can be found in the book Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore. In the book, Bitterblue, the young queen of Monsea is confined to her castle by her advisers. Bitterblue sneaks into the city at night and meets two thieves named Saf and Teddy, and lies about her identity in order to figure out why they are stealing from her. Despite all inquisitive situations and clashes that the characters endured throughout the story, I would change the settings if I were to re-write this book. Regardless of the conflicts in the story, I would alter the setting of the book because it would be intriguing for the characters

    The author also says that she tried to go weeks without lying and she found it almost impossible. I believe that this shows the author might just have a problem with telling the truth, and that everything she is tells her readers are lies too. There are necessary times when lying is the best decision for all the people involved, but these certain situations usually don't happen because you would still have to deal with the fact that you told a lie. I think that everyone will or have lied, but it isn't right to lie on purpose or all the…
