"It's Not an Oxymoron: The Search for an Arab Feminism" by Susan Mauddi Durraj

When reading this book i thought it had a very powerful idea for all woman especially Arab women. It shows that women have a say and they wont want to just be a housewife and clean things. Women today have come a long way and many of them have achieved greatness in the working world. She speaks her mind and shows that women have a say in the world. Arab women should read this story and take an important message from it. They should stand up for themselves and try to shift power. They shouldn't be housewife's when they can make much more of the life they have. Arab women have been degraded and looked down upon and they shouldn't stand for it. They are regular people that get taken advantage of and this shouldn't be happening. As time goes on women will get more rights and fight for equality just like they have been doing for the past 70 years.

Caroline

I enjoyed when we read the story Caroline because we had two different versions. After i read the text i had certain images about what the story would be. I imagined Caroline looking a certain way as well as the rest of the characters. Then when we read the comic version of the story the whole thing changed. The characters looked much different and the setting in my head was different. When we read a comic version of any book it makes it much easier to understand because then we can have the actual setting and what the characters look like in our head. When reading a regular book our imagination does all the thinking and we create it in our head. That is why people like comic books so much because it helps them visualize things and it makes the reading more enjoyable. I feel like this is why the comic book industry has made so much money over time. An author that doesn't make a comic version wants the reader to create the story in their head.
