Lucien is the head of the family (even though his father is still alive). Turns out, the position was really for Jimmy to pay back a really large debt to a dangerous mob family – the Marchesi’s. ![]() When his good for nothing cousin Jimmy says that there’s an offer for a receptionist job open that he’s not interested in anymore, he gives Peter the chance to take his spot. ![]() There’s Peter, a guy who is just nice and having a hard time finding a job. The story is told from alternating viewpoints told in first-person. Trigger warnings for non-con, kidnapping, torture, and violence. Like, I understand this is dark romance ~lite, but what does that even mean? I love reading dark romances and I’ve read my fair share of mafia books, but this one just wasn’t what I was expecting based on the blurb. I guess I’m the odd one out but I didn’t really like this book. This MM mafia romance is the first book in the Marchesi Family series. Lucien vowed to protect me from his enemies…īut who’s going to protect my heart from him?/p> Once I looked into his eyes, I couldn’t leave. I shouldn’t have gone to Lucien’s office. I never imagined the protector I longed for would be a mob boss who demanded complete control. ![]() ![]() These two themes are linked because Santiago’s perseverance is the reason he continues to wake up every day, go out to sea, and return empty-handed. Suffering, at least in the snapshot the reader gets of the old man’s life, seems central. His body, which was not in a good state, to begin with, is forced to contend with three days at sea without real rest or respite from the pressures the hooked marlin imposes on his body. The line cuts into his hands and his back. He bears the weight of the fish as it pulls his skiff along. Once he gets to sea his suffering only increases. It’s seen through his small shack, the bed he sleeps on, his lack of food, and in the eyes of the other fishermen. He suffers without complaint in his poverty. It’s clear through context clues, as well as Manolin’s desire to care for the old man, that Santiago is very poor. The majority of the novel, whether Santiago is onshore or at sea, is punctuated by struggle. Of the variety of themes to be found in The Old Man and the Sea hardship and the perseverance needed to surmount those hardships is one of the most prominent. ![]() ![]() The Old Man and the Sea Themes Hardship and Perseverance ![]() Within the novella, a reader will come across complex themes of strength and perseverance, as well as symbols of perfection and age which are all addressed directly.

A triangle between work, the two small children and Anne going to school. The financial status of Anne's family always revolved around a triangle. Toosweet having a salary of 12 dollars a week "wasn't sufficient no more" (Moody, page 9). Toosweet, being a single mother of four had to provide a house to live in and provide food, clothing and schooling for her children. Throughout the novel Moody shows discontent with her family and fellow black citizens for simply accepting the circumstances and the position in which they lived. ![]() ![]() In Anne Moody's, Coming of Age in Mississippi she differentiates herself from the rest of African American by questioning the way of life she must undergo due to all the restrictions her family and other African American's that surround her.

I had seen, on television, the remains of the ship lifted from the seabed in 1982, and had visited it in Portsmouth – visible only through a window at a distance, for the timbers had to be sprayed constantly with water and chemicals to preserve them. ![]() I knew of course that the ship had sunk while sailing out to meet the French warships on a hot July day and that the lower half of the ship had been preserved, the silt at the bottom of the Solent serving to limit decay. ![]() ![]() When I conceived the idea of a Shardlake novel where the threads of the story would converge on board Henry VIII’s warship Mary Rose as it prepared to sail out to do battle with the approaching French fleet in July 1545, I had little idea of the sheer scale of the material that was available in Portsmouth. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The problem that comes with children becoming independent readers is that the adults do not always know what is happening on the pages of the books a child is reading. We need to be aware of any potentially unfavorable or controversial children’s books that students have access to. Once students are reading on their own, teachers can have their enthusiastic learners complete independent learning projects such as animal research reports or biography projects where the students read books on their own to practice note-taking and writing skills. Teachers can start to implement literature circles or book clubs to introduce children to the amazing concept of socially sharing a good book.
