The White Rose Reading Response 9/12

The White Rose is the second book in The Jewel series. Violet, Ash, and Raven have escaped to the farm and are now working on a revolution to destroy the jewel. The author always keeps on our toes by writing with suspense. She does this by being descriptive on how the characters are running away from something or waiting. By doing this, the author always has us reading till the next page.

Since The White Rose is a dystopian novel, there is lots of world building included in the dialogue. This helps us as readers picture the vivid description in our heads. The author describes the jewel as a fancy place where the richest people live unlike the marsh where the poorest people are from who have barely anything. The author is slowly creating a map in our heads of showing us where the characters are and where they are going. It also helps us remember who lives in those places and where danger lurks.
