I rate this book a 2 out of 4 because I feel like the author could’ve extended the book in many different ways. One example is that the author didn’t explain and describe the actual two people who killed Mr. and Mrs. Lee, she just stated that they were thrown in jail. The length of this book was also a bit diminutive in my opinion. The idea of the book was wonderful which makes me feel that the climax could’ve been bigger and a bit longer which would’ve made it a better book. Another reason why this book held me back from rating it a 3 was that, the way Mike and Rebecca found Amanda Brown wasn’t as intense compared to other mystery books I have read. For example, when Rebecca found Amanda’s number from Cecilia, she searched Amanda’s address…

Reading through Matthew 24:42-44, it was clear to me the message God was trying to portray; that he was coming soon and he wants us to be prepared. If we put off following Christ any longer, it may be too long and we will miss the one chance we have to live with Him in eternity. Jesus goes on in this passage to further explain his warning by telling the parable of someone who was warned of a future burglary in his household. Knowing this was the case, the man took action by guarding and deterring the would-be burglar (NIV). The parable of the thief is a beautiful way to explain this in the way that it shows if a man were to act immediately on protecting his property if warned, a man should be ready and willing to protect his heart, mind, and soul.…
Emily's iron- gray hair has chronological significance in the story. First, the hair belongs to Emily, who had sometime slept on the bed beside Homer Baron's dead body, near where it was found. This term “Iron-Gray” had only lied within passage 4 in paragraph 6 when the narrator describes changes in appearance of Emily: “During the next few years, it grew grayer and grayer until it attained an even pepper-and-salt iron- gray, when it ceased turning”(Faulkner, 4.6) this happened during the period of 6 or 7 years when she gave out china-painting lessons after Homer disappeared. Second, the phrase “Iron- gray hair” has connotations that can be applied to the story. The word: “Iron” could mean stubborn, or iron willed. Stubborn is definitely a describing word for Emily. The group of narrators describes a time when Emily came to pick up a bottle of Arsenic from the general store: “Why, of course”, the druggist said, “if…
Chapters 15-19 a lot of important events occurred that will impact the end of the story I think. Such as in chapter 15 we right away found out about the dark truth of Rudy. It was an extremely shocking new, I was not expecting that at all. I used to think Rudy was probably a nice guy mostly after finding out that he was priest. That maybe he had just felt disappointed about the religion or something and therefore he would drink a lot.…
“Ask”. The intent is to show that through the passages of Matthew 7:7 and Luke 9:9 that God is willing to provide for his faction everything one could desire on earth. All his followers have to do is to ‘Ask’ of Him (God). 7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you” (Mark 7:7).…

Joshua 10:40 “So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.” All these countries were: Makkedah, Libnah, Lachish, Gezer, Eglon, Debir.
