If I stay

In my book "If I stay", a young girl named Mia, has a car accident that puts her in a coma. During that coma, she watches her life falls apart in a out of-body-experience.  Mia is stuck in between a rock and a hard place. Does she stay or does she go. If she stays she live without parent but, if she leaves she would leave without Adam and the rest of the family. Is it worth living her life with the people missing?


Note&Notice
When I was reading" If I stay".The main character ask herself a difficult questioned. Do I stay? Do I go? It makes me wonder what would happened if she were to stay or leave because it would affect other people and what they would do. I think that she would stay because she still needs to continue her life and her family would of been proud of her.

If I stay

Summary
So far in my book "If I Stay",  it's about how a young girl Mia, a seventeen year old teenager has a perfect life. She has a perfect family, perfect boyfriend, and a perfect best friend. Suddenly,In an instant her life change. Mia had a car accident. Will she live? Would her life change?

Genre/Reflet
I think that the genre of "If I stay"  is drama because  there is a lot of conflicts going on in her life. For example, She doesn't know what to choose if she should stay or leave. What I like about this genre is that you keep wonder what would happen next and can't stop reading. I also like that have a lot of questions about what would happen next.  My favorite part of the book so far is when they have a snowy day even though it isn't a terrible weather.

Worker's Rights Articles



   In the article "Bangladesh Factory owner", a fire happened causing 112 people to die. This happened because the workers were working and suddenly a alarm went off but, the managers and security guards wouldn't  let them out because they thought was a drill and  it turns out that it was to late for them to escape, according to the investigation. In my belief, they should of had safety hazards,and fire alarms. I also think that even if it was a drill they should of still let them out. I learned that people need to have more rights and that mangers  have to take a step up and be more responsible.

 In the poem I read "Simone Weil: The Year of Factory Work," while reading the poem  I was think what was the argument. Then I kept on reading the poem  and the argument was about how a worker was treated back then and how they never get a rest . I know this because it says " The clock never stops." It is different than the article because this shows a view of how the workers are treated in sweatshops. It affects how  I understand because it shows his feelings.
