Among The Betrayed

     I finished my book "How I Live Now" and was reading a boo's calledk called "Among The Betrayed"  but it's really not that well. It's about a young girl who is confuse. The society they she lives in is where each family has to have two children and if they had more, that child would have to die. Since Nina Idi was young she has been had scary dreamn about people killing and waking up all scared. Nina is the third child in her family and in her lifetime there are only supposed to be two children in the family. Soon as i got into the stroy she was arrested by the population police. They found out that she was a third child from her family and so they had to take her away.

      That is how far i got from the story aind i gave up because it wasn't interesting. Now i am about to read a new book called "Speak" well from i heard it was good. It's about a young girl name Melinda Sordino and she went to a party when she was in eigth grade. Towards the end of the night she was rapped by and solder guy who goes to high school and when she went to high school no one would talk to her. They thought she was sleeping with everyone so they didn't want to talk or see her. Once school started she was invisable and she couldn't tell no one because they thought she would be lying.

     Even her cloeses friends wouldn't talk to her they thought she was nasty. So through the whole school year school year she was teased and redicule for something she didn't even do. Her parents didn't know she was rapped but they knew that something was wrong with her and when they kept asking sif anything was wrong she would denie it. The boy that rapped her keeps bugging her and he keeps bringing up the past and how it was good and all that and that boy is going out with best friend well ex friend. He doesn't care, and one day she told her ex-best friend what happened and she didn't believe her and that made the situation more worst.

       By the end of the year she was about to rapped again by the same guy because he was mad that she told his girlfriend and so he tried to rape her. She was screaming so loud that a couple of girls heard her and saved her and beat that guy up. Now people understand what really happened and why she was acting the way she is. Her bestfriend felt so ashame and felt bad too.
