In the book Chopsticks by Jessica Anthony and Rodrigo Corral it tells a love story between the main characters Gloria Fleming and Francisco Mendoza. In the book it shows how Francisco is a new student attending Willard Dunn School for boys. The book also shows how other main character Gloria who is missing is a well known pianist who travels from place to place, city to city to inspire people with her extraordinary music. With these two characters the book so far has explained where they came from, who they are, and how they begin to fall in love.

Trait 1: The first trait that I think described Nick was having courage. I think Nick has courage because he was able to take his story and share it with the world even though it might've been difficult.

Fools Gold by Melody Carlson is about a Young Girl named Hannah who loses herself. She is a young girl from Australia and her parents are missionaries. She doesn't quite act the same and when her parents leave her with her uncle this summer, she truly realizes this maybe isn't the life she wants, or is it? In the book Hannah is faced with many obstacles and she really gets to see some natural ugly teenage drama. Throughout the book she is mortified numerous amount of times and for what? She then becomes face to face with a choice that can possibly really effect her in life. You have to read to find out the path she takes and if fitting in is worth loosing herself for. I really loved this book and thought it shared so many valuable lessons. Not only that but the book also displayed many issues and events that are so relatable and can effect you in a big way, especially if you're a teenager. I would give this book a 4 star rating out of 5 because I wish the ending had mor
