Character After the Book


I predict that Jimena, after the book, will need a normal life. In the end of the book The Choice, Jimena had lost her powers and now her friends, the other Daughters, will now have to fight the Atrox, a source of evil, without her. Since she has lost her powers along with her memories of being a goddess, I predict that her friends will tell her everything since they all know they can't keep that big of a secret from her.

Mini Theme Analysis

The last book i read was called Daughters of the Moon: The Choice. Its about girl named Jimena who is sent back in time by her friend Catty to change the future. She is accidentally dropped back four days and lands in enemy territory. She sees her old rival,Payasa, and runs, and then is arrested for something she doesn't do. She escapes and is later attacked by Nymphs when she is with Payasa and is forced to tell her her secret. So then Payasa helps Jimena throughout the book a couple of times, like when she helps her get a ride when she needed one or when she sacrifices herself to let Jimena go on and save her friends. I think the theme would be that " help comes from the most unexpected places."

Odysseus's heroic qualities are like of many other hero's qualities as well. He's clever and a quick thinker and you need that in any hero so that they know how to get out of troubled situations. Heroes also need to be strong-hearted and be able to help a person whenever needed(or whenever possible).I think that Odysseus is both heroic and non-heroic becuase he uses his quick thinking to help him and his teammates and at the same time puts the teammates at risk and he somehow ends up surviving instead of them.
