Cooking the Books: A Sloane Templeton Mystery Overview

After her mother dies from a heart attack, Sloane Templeton goes from Cyber Crimes Unit to bookstore owner before she can blink. She also "inherits" a half-batty store manager; a strange bunch of little old people from the neighborhood who meet at the store once a week, but never read books, called the Granny Oakleys Book Club; and Aunt Verline, who fancies herself an Iron Chef when in reality you need a cast iron stomach to partake of her culinary disasters. And with a group like this you should never ask, “What else can go wrong?”  

A lot! Sloane begins to receive cyber threats. While Sloane uses her computer forensic skills to uncover the source of the threats, it is discovered someone is out to kill her. Can her life get more crazy?


"Bonnie Calhoun's first Sloane Templeton mystery, Cooking the Books, is one of the most delightful new fiction voices I've read in years. My only complaint--waiting for the sequel. If this book doesn't have you ROFLOL, you'd better check your pulse!"--Jeanette Windle

"Bonnie Calhoun's debut novel, Cooking the Books, is as fun and quirky as the author herself. The cast of characters brims with unexpected humor and heart, and Sloane's take on the world around her keeps the reader eagerly turning pages to see what she'll say or do next. I look forward to more Sloane Templeton adventures."   Sandra D. Bricker, award-winning author of the Emma Rae Creation series that began with Always the Baker, Never the Bride

"What do a gangsta ex-boyfriend, gunslinging grannies, computer hacking, two very unusual books, and the world’s worst chef all have in common? You’ll find them in Bonnie Calhoun’s debut novel, Cooking the Books. It’s a one-of-a-kind a potboiler filled to the brim with plot twists, romance, and humor. A tasty treat for romantic suspense fans."
--Rick Acker, author of When the Devil Whistles and Dead Man's Rule

"Bonnie S. Calhoun is a master weaver of snarky humor and suspense. Cooking the Books is fast paced, laugh out loud funny with enough suspense to make you shiver. Sloane is an oxymoron: tough as nails on crime and injustice, yet her Aunt Verline and Fifi, her nutty store manager, manipulate her. Novel Rocket and I give it a high recommendation. It's a must read." -  Ane Mulligan, Sr. Editor Novel Rocket

"Bonnie S. Calhoun pens a heroine with snap and pizzazz. Sloane Templeton wonders why an old book is cause for bullets, and whether her refusal to sell her business justifies harrassment. A fast-paced mystery full of colorful characters and a last minute twist--what's not to love?" ~ S. Dionne Moore, Author of Promise Brides, 2010 and 2011 Carol Award Finalist

DESERT ROSE (Loveswept) Overview

DAVID--A Hero Whose Hands Were Her Lifeline...

At first he was only a voice in the darkness, comforting her when despair was all she could feel. Then David Winslow reached through iron bars to touch her hand, and Emma Hamilton knew she must survive the desperate captivity that had brought them together! Caressing her fingers, stroking her wrist, he shared his strength day after day and made her feel as if he were touching her everywhere.

Prisoner of Passion

Emma gave him hope, nurtured his courage, but when fate finally brought them freedom, David wondered if what the silken-haired angel felt for him was really love, or only gratitude. Determined to keep the promises she'd made to herself and to him, Emma vowed to make him forget what they'd suffered. David had been afraid to need her, but could she make him see that her soul was his forever?

Loveswept #555, July, 1992.

What the Dead Know LP Overview

Thirty years ago two sisters disappeared from a shopping mall. Their bodies were never found and those familiar with the case have always been tortured by these questions: How do you kidnap two girls? Who'or what'could have lured the two sisters away from a busy mall on a Saturday afternoon without leaving behind a single clue or witness?

Now a clearly disoriented woman involved in a rush-hour hit-and-run claims to be the younger of the long-gone Bethany sisters. But her involuntary admission and subsequent attempt to stonewall investigators only deepens the mystery. Where has she been, why has she waited so long to come forward? Could her abductor truly be a beloved Baltimore cop? There isn't a shred of evidence to support her story, and every lead she gives the police seems to be another dead-end'a dying, incoherent man, a razed house, a missing grave, and a family that disintegrated long ago, torn apart not only by the crime but by the fissures the tragedy revealed in what appeared to be the perfect household.

In a story that moves back and forth across the decades, there is only one person who dares to be skeptical of a woman who wants to claim the identity of one Bethany sister without revealing the fate of the other. Will he be able to discover the truth?

Lost In Italy Overview

The best laid plans...

Halli Sanders spent two years planning the trip of a lifetime to Italy. Her itinerary did not include being stranded by her siblings, kidnapped by a sexy American movie star, dodging bullets, or fleeing criminals in a car chase around Lake Como. And that's just in the first three hours.

...often go awry.

Trent Tomlin put his movie career on hold to investigate his brother's murder-ruled-suicide at his Italian villa. He's closing in on the suspects when an American tourist unwittingly films the murder of the retired cop helping him. The killers will stop at nothing to get the evidence--including holding Halli's family as collateral.

Life's a little different unscripted.

Thrust into the role of real-life hero, Trent finds himself falling for the Plain Jane whose beauty blossoms with every challenge they face. But how can he keep the evidence from falling into the wrong hands and get justice for his brother and friend without betraying Halli and her family?

EXCERPT:

Trent cast his own quick glance in the rearview mirror, pressure squeezing his body like a starving boa constrictor as he searched for the men who'd spotted her and her camera across the bay.  By his amateur calculations, he figured he had about three more minutes.  If they were lucky.

Pushing up to sit on the headrest, he prepared to turn on the superstar charm that had brought him such success at the box office.

"I'm waiting for my brother and sister," she said before he could speak.

So that's who'd driven off as he watched the scene unfold from one street above and behind her.  He lifted a tense shoulder in a careless gesture."Quick spin around town, and I'll bring you right back.  They'll never know you were gone, sugar."

Her eyebrows drew together above those deep blue eyes.  Damn.  He fought his own frown.  Based on previous experience with star-struck women, she should've jumped in at the first invitation.  Wasn't it just his luck, this one had common sense.

Leaving the car running, he swung his legs over the door and rounded the front of the convertible.His heart thumped with each step as he tried to figure out the best way to get her out of this mess.  It was one thing when he was following a script, but how the hell did one orchestrate a rescue in real life when the rescuee wouldn't cooperate and he had no time to explain the danger?  It's not like he could play her the recording tucked in his pocket.

The girl backed away from his approach.  He fought back rising apprehension and forced an easy smile.

"Look, I appreciate the offer, Shain, but--"

"Trent."

"Right."  Her blush deepened.  "I know.  Trent.But I--"

"I need you to get in the car."  As an afterthought, he added, "Please."

"Um..."

He used her glance down the road as cover for his own.  Still time, yet his control slipped.  "Seriously.Get in."

The sharp command widened her eyes.  Suspicion darkened them to navy, and she took another step backward.  Then her shoulders squared while her gaze narrowed with determination.  "No."

The right taillight on his Alfa Romeo exploded.  Trent ducked reflexively as bits of plastic flew in all directions.  Adrenaline spiked through him, but other than a sharp reactive jerk, the girl just stood there holding her camera.  Trent lunged forward, grabbed her arm and hauled her toward the car.

"Hey--let me go!"  She pulled back with surprising strength.

He picked her up and shoved her head first into the passenger seat, then vaulted over her to slip behind the wheel.Heartbeat thundering in his ears, he gunned the gas with a sickening grinding of gears before the convertible shot out into traffic amidst screeching tires and blaring horns.

Writing singular Column Cash Book, duplicate Column Cash Book and Triple Column Cash Book

Single Column Cash Book

It has only one. Column on each side for estimate In fact, it is written just like cash list in the ledger (being real list what comes in is debited; what goes out is credited). This form of 'cash book has the same ruling as that of a ledger list There is no need of having a cash list in the ledger. The purpose is ably served by cash book itself. Posting from debit (receipt) side of the cash book is done to the reputation side of concerned accounts and from the reputation side of cash book to the debit side of concerned accounts.

Book

Balancing

The cash book is balanced in the same manner as a ledger account. As more cash cannot be paid then what we have, therefore the cash balance (if any) must always be a debit balance. Therefore, the receipts column will always be bigger than the payments column. The inequity will be written on the reputation side as "By balance c/d". The totals are then entered in the two columns opposite one another and then on the debit side the balance is written as "To balance b/d". It shows the cash balance in hand in the starting of the next period. To verify the accuracy of the entries made, the cash book should be balanced oftentimes (preferably daily). The balance as per cash book must tally with the actual cash in hand.

Double Column Cash Book

As the phenomenon of contribution and accepting cash allowance is intimately associated with the act of receipt and payment of cash, therefore, the utility of cash book increases if the columns of allowance are also provided in it. Cash book having supplementary columns for allowance is known as double column cash book.

Triple Column Cash Book

These days it is difficult to carryon any enterprise without having dealings with the bank. Ordinarily bulk of its funds is kept by the enterprise at a bank in a current list where frequent withdrawals and deposits are permitted. Bank transactions, i.e.. Payments into and out of bank are more numerous than cash transactions. Therefore, it is suitable as well as suitable that cash book should have one supplementary column on each side to narrative moneys deposited at bank arid payments out of the hank. The supplementary benefit to having this type of cash book is that bank list is not required to be maintained in the ledger.

Before we construe the formula of writing up the triple column cash book you should be well-known with the understanding of 'contra entries'. Also note determined the rehabilitation of cheques received and issued by the business.

Contra Entries

In the three column cash book there will be some cross or contra entries i.e.. Replacement of money from cash to bank (amount deposited) and vice versa (amount withdrawn from bank for office use). In all such cases both entries occur in the cash book and no ledger entry is required. This is indicated by a contra sign (C) in the folio column indicating thereby that the double entry aspect of this transaction is perfect and it requires no posting to the ledger. rehabilitation of cheques in a triple-column cash book is explained below:

1. Cheques received and deposited in the bank on the same day: When the cheques received from the debtors are deposited in the bank on the day of receipt itself the entry is recorded in the bank column on the debit side of the cash book there from debtor's list receives credit.

2. Cheques received but deposited in the bank on a later date: At the time when cheque is received it is recorded in the cash column on the debit side of the cash book and the date on which it is deposited in the bank, Two steps are required:-

(2.1) Enter the same in the cash column on the reputation side of the cash book "By Bank A/c" and
(2.2) Enter it in the bank column on the debit side of the cash book' 'To Cash A/c". Thus it assumes the form of Contra entry on the day of depositing the cheque into bank received earlier.
However, if there is no facts as to the date of deposit of the cheque, it should beassumed that the cheque was deposited in the bank on the date of receipt.

3. Cheques received and endorsed in favor of some creditor :- On receipt, cheque is recorded in the cash column on the debit side and at the time of endorsement the same is recorded in cash column on reputation side, By Creditors Ale.

4. Bearer cheques may be en cashed at the counter of the bank or it may be deposited in the bank. In case it is en-cashed it should be recorded in the cash column on the debit side, in case it is deposited in the bank the same should be recorded in the bank column on the debit side of the cash book.

Cash book is a Journalized ledger

Often a request is asked either cash book is a journal or ledger? It is journal in the sense that all cash transactions are primarily recorded in the cash book with narration and therefore, these are posted to the relevant accounts in the ledger. Cash book is also ledger in the sense that it serves the purpose of cash list and bank list (in case of triple column cash book). No isolate cash list is opened in the ledger where cash book is in existence. Thus cash book is a unique mixture of journal and ledger. It is popularly known as journalized ledger.

Similarities of Cash book with journal

(1) Cash transactions are recorded in the cash book at the time of origin i.e. Traditional book.

(2) Transactions are recorded date-wise.

(3) Transactions from cash book posted to the relevant accounts (except cash account) in the ledger.

(4) Cash book contains ledger folio as in the journal.

(5) Narration is given for each entry.

Similarities of Cash book with ledger

(1) Form of cash book resembles With ledger. Two sides left hand side is the debit side (receipts) Right hand side is the reputation side (payments).

(2) Words "To" and "By" are used as in the ledger.

(3) No isolate cash list and bank list are required in the ledger. Thus cash book is the book of final entry for cash and bank transactions.

(4) Cash and bank columns of the cash book are periodically, balanced just like ledger accounts.

Adult Book market

Adult book shop cater to some of the needs of adults, meaning they pamper the basic instincts of sex and - in some cases - sleaze. The reality is that adult books comprise a niche market of great fascination not only to young men and women, but also to adolescents and old persons alike.

Ask an adult book store owner and he will tell you that he sells books on healthy sex for general persons and not just for "sexual delinquents" or "dirty old men". Also books on sex, these adult bookstores also sell gifts, novelties, toys, videos, Dvds, used and new magazines and other sex associated material for fun and entertainment. These bookstores also cater to the needs of gays, lesbians and homosexuals, and so on. Most of these adult bookstores remain open 24 hours, while some take two hours' break for the important "clean-ups". To additional whet the appetite of their customers some of these shop also have small "theaters" to preview the books that the buyer may intend to buy.

Book

Entry to adult bookstores is often restricted to persons who are at least 19 years old. In some states it is obligatory to show valid Id as proof of age before entering these adult book stores.

While providing legitimate fun and entertainment should not be discouraged, some adult bookstores degenerate into promoting illegal forms of sex, which just scares the healthy fun seekers. These places are sometimes creepy and utterly revolting and tend to come to be dens of obscenity, prostitution and crime. Unfortunately, it is difficult to draw a line between healthy sexual entertainment and "perverted" sex. Yet, going by the estimate of citizen who visit these stores, it can only be accomplished that their popularity is on the rise.

Book Press release - Promote a Book on the Web

It pays to be versatile.

Press releases can be used to promote almost whatever - either you are finding to issue a product, offer a service, or hold an event, you will find that a press issue addresses a huge part of your promotional needs. For book promotion, the press issue is particularly suitable.

Book

If that's not great enough, press releases are straightforward to write and easy to distribute, with the added benefit of the service being made ready for free in many cases. With all these advantages, it's not surprising that more and more people are turning to press releases to promote their books, especially as writers often do not have much of a marketing budget. Combined with the wide reach and speed of the internet, the press issue can be highly productive in promoting your book.

The power of the press release

Book press releases often write back the basic questions of who, what, when, where, and how connected with your book. As a writer, you will be well able to find an animated angle on the book that you have written. Remember, that your press issue is not meant to be a hard sell of your book. It needs to contribute an impartial, newsworthy and animated account of aspects of your book so that the reader wants to learn more.

On another note, press releases may also use dissimilar perspectives although still centered colse to the same product, service, or event. For example, in promoting your book, you can write dissimilar press releases on dissimilar aspects of it. One may be about the book itself, detailing the gist of the plot plus facts about how readers can get their copy, while another may be about the begin of the book. If there's a contest where a copy of the book may be won, then that calls for another press release. I'm sure that you can think of many more ideas.

Using this strategy, you will soon have as many press releases on your book as you have time to write and you should never run out of ideas. Have each press issue posted in a dissimilar place with a link back to your web site or sales page and you will already be thinking like a expert book promoter. Even when you don't honestly have dissimilar things to promote, such as the example of the book and a book launch, you can still generate dissimilar press releases by changing your content and picking out dissimilar ways of finding at your book. I favor posting unique press releases each time not published anywhere else because they make your promotional efforts more dynamic and avoid duplicate content which is the bane of search engines. Don't forget to assign the right tags and categories so that your press releases will be picked up by your targeted audience.

Listprice : $11.95

PLEASURE OF MY COMPANY, THE: A NOVELLA Overview

Daniel Pecan Cambridge, 30, 35, 38, or 27, depending on how he feels that day, is a young man whose life is rich and full, provided he never leaves his Santa Monica apartment. After all, outside there are 8-inch-high curbs and there's always the horrible chance he might see a gas station attendant wearing a blue hat. So, except for the occasional trip to the Rite Aid to admire the California girl Zandy and to buy ear plugs because they're on sale, he stays home a lot. And a good thing too, or he would have never been falsely implicated in a murder, never almost seduced Philipa, never done the impossible task of jogging around the block with Brian, never ironed his pillows, and might never have won the Most Average American essay contest.

In The Pleasure of My Company, Steve Martin's second novel, all of the enjoyments of the critically acclaimed bestseller Shopgirl are present: the tender portrayal of loneliness and love; a character's quest to reach out and engage the world; as well as laugh-out-loud humor and language that is brilliantly inventive. But in the story of Daniel Pecan Cambridge and the people who inhabit the insular universe he is seeking to expand—if only one small square at a time—Steve Martin has achieved something extraordinary: the chronicle of a modern-day neurotic yearning to break free.

PLEASURE OF MY COMPANY, THE: A NOVELLA Specifications

Readers expecting something zany, something crudely humorous from Steve Martin's second novel, The Pleasure of My Company, will discover much greater riches. While the book has a sense of humor, Martin moves everywhere with a gentler, lighter touch in this elegant little fiction that verges on the profound and poetic.

Daniel Pecan Cambridge is the narrator and central consciousness of the novel (actually a novella). Daniel, an ex-Hewlett-Packard communiqué encoder, is a savant whose closely proscribed world is bounded on every side by neuroses and obsessions. He cannot cross the street except at driveways symmetrically opposed to each, and he cannot sleep unless the wattage of the active light bulbs in his apartment sums to 1,125. Daniel's starved social life is punctuated by twice-weekly visits from a young therapist in training, Clarissa; by his prescription pick-ups from a Rite Aid pharmacist, Zandy; and by his "casual" meetings with the bleach-blond real estate agent, Elizabeth, who is struggling to sell apartments across the street. But Daniel's dysfunctional routines are shattered one day when he becomes entangled in the chaos of Clarissa's life as a single mother. Taking care of Clarissa's tiny son, Teddy, Daniel begins to emerge from the safety of logic, magic squares, and obsessive counting.

Martin's craftsmanship is remarkable. The tightly packed novella paints rich portraits with restraint and balance, including nothing extraneous to Daniel's world. The book does not try for pyrotechnics but is contented with a Zen-like simplicity in both prose and plot. Avoiding the crushing bleakness of much contemporary fiction, Martin insists through Daniel--a man haunted by horrors of his own making--that there is possibility for compassion, that broken lives can actually be healed. --Patrick O'Kelley

The Black Box (A Harry Bosch Novel) Overview

In a case that spans 20 years, Harry Bosch links the bullet from a recent crime to a file from 1992, the killing of a young female photographer during the L.A. riots. Harry originally investigated the murder, but it was then handed off to the Riot Crimes Task Force and never solved.

Now Bosch's ballistics match indicates that her death was not random violence, but something more personal, and connected to a deeper intrigue. Like an investigator combing through the wreckage after a plane crash, Bosch searches for the "black box," the one piece of evidence that will pull the case together.

Riveting and relentlessly paced, THE BLACK BOX leads Harry Bosch, "one of the greats of crime fiction" (New York Daily News), into one of his most fraught and perilous cases.

Disadvantages of E-books

Now, more and more people prefer e-books to customary ones, because it can save their time and money. However, with various e-books flooded in, more and more people are aware of the disadvantages of e-books.

The fact that, e-books require extra devices or personal computers can be looked as a disadvantage. Many e-books are typically produces to be compatible for definite software which in turn may be not admittedly available. Since e-books are dependent on other equipments, definite hardware or software failure may sway it. Unless the hardware, Internet relationship or battery power that is required by an e-book reader is easily available, then its electronic documents are useless. In addition, e-books depending on hardware and software and are more admittedly damaged than a printed book

Book

E-book reading devices are admittedly more expensive than printed books. All devices of e-books require power. There is a growing concern that the e-books at gift may not be accessible or compatible to the future e-books software or devices.

Screen glare and eyestrain are a serious concern for many inherent users of e-book technology. A major worry of reading from an e-book reader could hurt the eyes. The display resolution of computer screens and electronic devices is considerably less than the print capability produced by a printing press.

Reading from a computer lacks the familiarity and ease of reading from a book. A paper book can be opened and flipped through, while an electronic text is more difficult to navigate.

E-books have unreliable life span. Paper has a much longer life span than most digital forms of storage. Because of the rapid improvement of new computer systems it is difficult to judge whether the software or hardware will come to be outdated. As new hardware is developed structures must be put into place to allow for the migration of existing materials to the new platforms so that they can still be accessed. Methods of preserving the electronic documents must also be developed. A high degree of reliability of the equipment must be part of the electronic devices that cope the replacements for printed books.

It can be hard to distinguish yourself from "almost anyone.' for approximately anyone can make an e-book. To make your book equivalent to a "real" book, you should find and value some e-book publishers before manufacture a deal. A flashy website does not guarantee a great publisher. Look at their e-books and see if yours fits in with that mix.

The Preface: Share Your Inner Passion And Inspiration For great Book Sales

What Is The Purpose Of The Preface?

The book preface (Pref-iss, not Pre-face) is a short explanation about why you wrote your book. The book introduction, on the other hand, is all about the benefits the reader will get from reading your book. The preface is about you, and the introduction is about the reader. But never forget, both should be written by the book's author, and that both must show your passion and thereby make an emotional relationship with the reader. In divergence to the preface and introduction, the book's foreword is not written by the book's author. It is written by a guest author, commonly a man that is well know within a inescapable industry, that can bring third-party credibility to you, the book's author.

Book Writing - Page Count and part length

Regardless of genre, there is no hard and fast rule about how many pages or words each part should include or how many chapters should be in a book. However, there are some normal guidelines in this article that may help you decide the page count and part length needed for your book.

Pages in a Chapter:

Book

Many population read in spurts, at lunch time, or on the subway to work, readers enjoy chapters that can be concluded in ten to fifteen minutes.

I try to set my part lengths by how long it takes me to read the material. If it goes past fifteen minutes, I may decide to divide a part in half and make two chapters out of it. Take into notice that I write mostly non-fiction.

As you probably know, there's a divergence in the way fiction and non-fiction are handled. In a fiction book, writers use shorter chapters. Some are only one page if that is all it takes to catch the reader up on the operation of other characters in other scenes. When writing non-fiction, your part content needs to be definite to your chapter's heading or title.

Twenty pages per part is a good rule of thumb, but the most leading thing is to include everything that relates to a particular topic in one chapter. For example, if your book is about fishing, you want to include the bulk of your facts about fly casting in one chapter. All your info about bait and lure would be in another chapter.

Chapters/Pages in a Book:

These guidelines should give you a normal idea of how to decide the length of your chapters and your book.

If your book is titled "The Accuracy of the Us Census" you may have 52 chapters (one on each state). If your book is titled "Ten Tips for Marketing" you may have only ten chapters. There's no rule about how many chapters a book can or must have.

In order to be thought about a book rather than a pamphlet or booklet, a book needs to be at least 10,000 words. If your book has more than 475 pages, you might want to consider producing it in two volumes.

Because you will submit your manuscript as an 8.5" x 11" word-processing document, you cannot be obvious of its final length until after your publisher formats it for print. I have found that 250-300 words will approximate one page of 12-point font text in a acceptable size (5.5"x8" or 6"x9") perfect-bound book.

To Kill a Mockingbird - A Book delineate

The novel To Kill A Mockingbird revolves colse to a young girl named Jean Louise Finch who goes by the nicknamed "Scout". Scout experiences dissimilar events in her life that dramatically change her life. Scout and her brother Jem are being raised by their father, a lawyer named Atticus and a housekeeper named Calpumia in a small town in the south. At this point in time in the South racism and discriminations towards black was a big issue . The story begins when Scout is 6 years old, and her brother is about to enter the 5th grade. That summer Scout and her brother meet a young boy named Dill who comes from Mississippi to spend the summers there. They become fascinated with a man named "Boo" Radley, a man in his thirties who has not been seen exterior of his home in years, mainly because of his suppressed upbringing. They have an impression of Mr. Radley as being this large ugly and evil man. Then comes the trial. Scout's father becomes a defense attorney for a black man, Tom Robinson, who is falsely accused of raping a white women. This has a big affect on Scout. During this trial she gets teased by friends because her father was helping this black man. Scout starts to see the racism that exist. During the trial Scout and her brother and close friend Dill scrutinize the trial. Even though they are young they can see that Mr. Robinson is innocent. Even though Mr. Robinson's innocence was clear even in the eyes of kids, Mr. Robinson was still found guilty. Later in an attempt to escape, Mr. Robinson is shot dead. Scout is highly disappointed at the verdict and even more at the death of Mr. Robinson and realizes the injustice that exist. Later in a cowardly attempt by the alleged rape victims father, tries to kill Scout and her brother in order to get even with her father for manufacture him look back in court. This is when Mr.Radley makes an appearance again an stabs their attacker. Even though Mr. Radley kills a man he is not tried for murder because he was defending the Scout and her brother. Ultimately some justice. This gives Scout some hope that is a opportunity for revising in this unjust world.

(Discussion of main themes in To Kill A Mockingbird)

Book

There are many dissimilar themes present in To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The first theme which I will discuss is "Prejudice". The whole story revolved colse to the prejudice views of this Southern community. The whole reason why the trial was going on was because of citizen views towards blacks in the south. Since the alleged rape victim's father has such a prejudice view towards black, he is embarrassed that his daughter was verily flirting with a black man. To combat this he falsely accuses the innocent Mr. Robinson of rape. If it wasn't for the prejudice view which existed in the south the accusation would had never been brought against Mr. Robinson. These prejudice views in the south created a double appropriate of justice. With all the negative points that can be found in the story in respect to prejudice, there was a entertaining spot when it came to the prejudice issue. This "ray of light" came in the form of Scout's father Atticus. Atticus represented hope. Hope that good citizen still exist. Even in a society filled with hate. Atticus represented the hope that one day things can change

The "Prejudice" theme also ties in well with the title of the book "To Kill A Mocking Bird." In part 10, Scout and Jem Finch get air rifles for Christmas. Scouts father tells her and her brother that it is a sin to kill a mockingbird because mockingbirds are inoffensive creatures who do nothing but sing for our enjoyment. In the story To Kill a Mockingbird Mr. Robinson is clearly the "Mocking Bird". He is a good man who has never harmed whatever and is figuratively and verily shot by society because of prejudice. The jurors sentence him to death not because he did whatever wrong but because of prejudice. He is then later shot for trying to flee this unjust ruling. Mr. Robinson just like a mockingbird is shot for no reason at all.

The second theme which I will discuss is "coming of age". The "Coming of age" theme basically entails a character who evolves to a new level of self awareness straight through his or her experiences in life. This is clearly the case with Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird. An example of Scout's "coming of age" can be seen when she meets her friend Dill. Dill comes from a broken home and lives somewhere beyond Alabama. Scout who comes from a good home is awaken to the dissimilar quality of life that exist and is able to come to a end that life exist beyond the world she knows. straight through these experiences she grows more tolerant of others, learning how to "climb into someone else person's skin and walk colse to in it." On her first day of school she finds that just like with Dill there are both public and poor classes in society, some are respectable and others not. She also learns that her father is an extra-ordinary man, fighting for a Negro's possession in court. During the trial of Tom Robinson Scout learns about equality and inequality and Ultimately about racial prejudice. By the final chapters of the novel, Scout goes to someone else "coming of age experience." She learns that good citizen can still suffer injustice. She realizes this when she see's Tom Robinson suffer injustice even though they did nothing to deserve it. She scrutinize that the courts does not all the time result in justice. In the end after all of Scout's experiences and discoveries we get the sense that she will not result the prejudice views which her society upholds. In the end Scout had matured and grown more as a kid, than many adults will do in there lifetime.

The third and final theme which I will discuss is "Justice". In the story To Kill a Mockingbird I feel,the author, Ms. Lee portrays true justice as being best seen straight through the eyes of the innocent. In the story Scout and her brother, being the innocent,can clearly see the injustice being done to Mr. Robinson. In contrary to Scout and her brother other citizen in society more specifically the older citizen in the town, the citizen who have lived straight through dissimilar experiences, become blinded when it comes to true justice. Or maybe they are not blinded but just choose to ignore it. This is clearly seen when they sentence an innocent man to death. This ignorance of justice can be blamed on the prejudice views which are present and ultimately instilled in society in the south. So I feel that Harper Lee is connecting justice with innocence to a safe bet extent. In my view Harper Lee portrays justice as being verily detected. The reason I say this is even the young justice. The qoute is society can instill beliefs that can act as a veil and blind the citizen from justice. The only way to find this veil is straight through citizen like Atticus who can pass his morality and nobility to the young and the "blinded"

(Would I suggest this book?)

I would without fail suggest citizen to read the book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I found it to be an entertaining and superior book. I feel the book does a great job in portraying the ultimate prejudice that existed in the south at that time. I feel this book makes a superior statement on how justice can be altered straight through racism. I also think that the themes found in the book are themes which can still be found in our current society and that makes it the more interesting. You can even make a case that prejudice still has an result in our legal system today. So if you are finding for a superior book of "coming of age" and the battle for justice I would highly suggest To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
