My heart sank when I heard that Shaxton was my partner for the day’s hike. He wasn’t a bad kid‚ but he was small and a little clumsy‚ and I don’t think I’d ever heard him speak.

But after a while the dead would just blend in with the scenery‚ they would simply become just things to look at out the window on the road trip‚ like trees or shredded tires.

Just below the surface The story is written by Kate Nivison and takes place in a London suburb in an upper class environment (p. 41‚ l. 14) in modern time (p. 42‚ l. 23).

Both women are feminist and aren’t afraid to show it. While Orenstein discusses the “princess” fad that is consuming the younger girls of America and why the fad an abomination‚ Traister explains the phenomena of stupidity that has swept America’s Pop Icons such as Paris Hilton‚ Lindsay Lohan‚ and Jessica Simpson. “Brainless Hussies” is more convincing
