All The Light We Cannot See 4
Well, I guess what I would like to talk about is how after that last letter from Marie's dad, we don't hear from him again. I always thought he was dead meat, right when I read that his angle was leaving, I thought "oh snap, he gonna die, I don't know when or how but he will" and that's what I'm guessing what happened, cause that was never stated out right by the author say "hey, he's dead". We just never heard from him again, and Marie just had to live without him. It was just so sad yet empowering to see, well read, Marie learn all these things, and for her to carry on even though she didn't know what was going on, that was awesome.

All The Light We Cannot See 3
- As we have gotten to know more about Marie-Laure and Werner, how has your opinion of them changed and why? Use evidence from the book to support your answer.
For starters Werner has gotten more interesting he doesn't seem like a extra character he actually feels like a necessary character in the story. Originally I thought Werner was just basically a Nazi recruit who just so happened to be good at fixing radios, tracking them down form a distance, and being multilingual. He was just in the story to end up helping out Marie in the end, but now I see that he still has these traits but I also know that he is starting to realize that the Nazis may are not as great as they present themselves to be. He is starting to see that his sister Jutta might be right about not trusting the Nazis. As for Marie-Laure, my opinion on her hasn't really changed, I still believe that she is a extremely strong character. She is a blind 16 year old, in a house with a crazy uncle, her father is in jail or worse, she has to go out in the city by herself to get bread that may or may not have a secret message baked into the bread, she survives a bombing in her city, she is being hunted down by a guy who wants the Sea Of Flames that she has, she has a very hard life.
