Summary and tough questions

From where I last left off in the book LoveTorn, I have read that the main character has fallen in love with the man she met. She is constantly trying to get away from her true self, but it is difficult to become someone new in a matter of days. Shalini is trying to make it seem as if she was someone completely different from what her family is. The man she loves know the new side of her not the side of tradition and arranged marriage. Her marriage has been arranged since she was 3, now imagine that! If I had an arranged marriage oh man would I be mad!! Either way Shalini is trying to tell her boyfriend but just doesn't seem to know how.
     One of her situations would be to try to come clean to her boyfriend. Some thoughts in her head would be, will he accept me? Will he leave me? She is always debating on wether she should tell him or not. This will be a person vs. self conflict because it has to do with what she believes.

Summary and character analysis

In the book i've been reading Lovetorn by Kavita Daswani the book mainly is about, This girl who leaves the the U.S and falls in love, but at home she already has a fiancé. Her family had already arranged her marriage before the time she was born. The main character finds herself in a sticky situation. The person she loves only knows her by what she tells him. So their relationship now is a lie.
    From what I've read I can say that the main character is desperate to get away from tradition. If she needed to leave her country and remove herself completely then it just shows she wasn't liking the way she lived before. She is also desperate for love and a new beginning. The only way she got it was to leave.

Summary and memory moments

From where I left off in Go ask Alice, Alice has been getting her stuff in order. She is now living a great life with her family but  before it all she was in a crazy house, She hated it. One day she got released and she was very happy, she knew she wasn't crazy. The time that she was there it helped her get away from the drugs and the drama, she met knew people and found herself. The time she got released she thought she had gotten through it all, she had a great family, great friends, and great relationships. So she had everything she ever wanted. She no longer needed the diary. To find out what happened to her after putting away her last diary, read Go ask Alice.
       When Alice was in the crazy house she always remembered how her family treated her and she wanted to go home. It was better than being in that hospital. She was determined to get out because of all the memories she is missing with her siblings and parents. Alice never really liked being separated from her family, but she coped with it. With the help of her family she was able to get released. Alice looks back and see's that she couldn't get through it without her family.
