He followed her every word to get closer to the crown, but one: James married Anne, the crowned princess of Denmark, whereas Elizabeth wanted to choose his wife. On Elizabeth’s deathbed, she crowned James the king of England. After this James was as happy as could be, whereas the people were skeptical.

A Separate Peace displays how fear and greed challenge, and ultimately destroy, the trust in the friendship between the ever-obedient Gene, and the resistant and curious Finny. “For all the camaraderie between them, these boys are still driven by pious old healthy competition, which at times can end up being, well, less than healthy” (Shmoop.com).

This summer I read Bridge to terabithia, it’s a book about intellectual and emotional courage. In the book, two friends create the magical land of terabithia while facing the real world.
