Free Choice!!!

I am still reading the book Push by Sapphire and this book has stirred up so many different emotions.  While reading this book it seems like at one point im laughing and the next point im almost in tears. I am almost in tears because of the abuse she goes through throughout the book. Some people that read this book can’t even finish the whole thing.  Some of the things that she goes through, if that was me I couldn’t have handled it. That’s why in my last blog I said that she was worthy of praise. When she said that she had two children by her father I just couldn’t understand how a father could do something like that to their daughter. I was also thinking like how can a father even be attracted to his daughter. This book has so many surprising events.  The verbal and physical abuse that her mom puts her through is unbelievable. I didn’t know that one person can give that much abuse. She gives so much abuse in one day. I don’t understand how Precious can even live in a house that has that much abuse. Abuse is something nobody should go through, no matter what age. You shouldn’t have to take any verbal or physical abuse from anybody no matter who they are. I just feel that her mother and father is supposed to be there for her no matter what. She is getting more abuses at home than she is in school.  But like I said before this book had stirred up so many emotions and it’s going to stir up more since I haven’t finish the book yet.

  1. Ashley, I agree with you. In fact the book stirred up so many emotions in me that I couldn't read it.
