For your final blog post on All the Light We Cannot See and your final blog post of the semester, you can address anything having to do with the book. This is an opportunity for you to say what you think of the book or address any other aspect of the book that interests you and about which you haven't already written a blog post.
One thing that I really enjoyed discussing was Werner's death. It not only blew him up, but blew my mind (just kidding) (only a little). Anyways, it was crazy how there were two chapters in the book called Light. The first one was Marie-Laure finding her way home for the first time she she turned blind. The second one was Werner dying.
Obviously the author did this on purpose. I think he did it on purpose to show that Werner was finding his way home. To his parents.
Another thing I found crazy was how Werner tried so hard to escape the mines and the same fate his father had, but ended up being buried by earth too. It just goes to show that no matter how hard you try, you can't escape fate.
There's just so much that happened in that book. It's such a good book. I loved reading it and discussing it. It should definitely stay in the ELA curriculum. And it's so cool that some of us get to see the author in person and that he was a student of John Long's. H
