War is destroying,lives and homes.
War is killing, our devoted soldiers.
War is crawling, towards freedom for all.
War is hating, what is different from us.
War is needed, protecting what is dear to us.
War is believing, that everything will be alright.
War is depleting, countries sources and morale.
War is serving, a government that doesn't care about you.
War is standing, for our beliefs .
War is death, of this country.

Book review: Slice of Cherry
I've never been to hot and humid Texas but Dia Reeves mad me feel as if i were right there with the characters experiencing everything with Kit and Fancy. The daughters of The Bonesaw Killer of Portero, and they know that its only a matter of time before they follow in his foot steps.
Their dad was caught and is now on death row, but the sisters refuse to fall into the same trap. Using clever control Fancy knows that she can protect herself and her impulsive sister from the same fate as their father.
She eventually finds the missing crank, thanks to her dead ancestor Cherry, to her fathers kinetoscope. which was long abandoned in the dark killing cellar. Using this they are able to open "doors" to Fancy's world, a place where they can kill without remorse or conviction.
I really loved this book because Dia Reeves puts you into the story; and you end up feeling the anxiety and loneliness along with the characters. With all the twists and turns this books takes you won't be able to put it down. Following killings, crushes, magic and the fantasy world where buried victims grow into beautiful, and strange, trees.

Remembering 9.11
I really have no opinion on 9.11, its not that I don't feel pity for those who have lost love ones, I just try to see both sides of the attack. i think that Al-Qaeda members do believe that they are doing what is right and what they're God wants of them.
When 9.11 happened I was only a 10 year old little girl watching this in school with the rest of her class. Really the only thing i remember is deeming that it was boring and going back to drawing.
The attacks on 9.11 are no different from catholic crusades or holy wars from history class. Things like this have always happened and always will. That's just a fact of nature, when humans disagree they fight. No amount of anti-terrorism will stop this; people like this will always believe what they believe no matter how much we punish them.
Even if we disband and convict every member of Al-Qaeda, another group will form, yelling out beliefs that contradict with ours and inevitably end in violence. Violence is just encoded into our DNA.
