Chapter6/7

So after five chapters of showing us what Janie's life is like, things are starting to get interesting. To summarize briefly, Janie had finally got her hands on the wheel, driving her family to the football game. As well, her relationship with Reeves pushes forward, tacitly... Now, what I would like to call the "real" beginning of this story, is when Janie rummages through her attic, where she has never been to before. She finds a box full of newspaper articles, homework assignments of a mysterious girl name Hannah. Then, the chapter ends with Janie finding the dress that she wore on the picture of the milk carton.
Today, I think I found out why the concept of driving and getting a license is used to contrast and compare the odd life of Janie's. When she first got her hands on the wheel, she loved the feeling of control. She had control of whether to turn left or right, to stop or to reverse, where as in her own life, she didn't have a clue on what's going on. Control and power, something Janie doesn't have, but is able to hold firmly in her hands while she is driving.
This book is predictable. The classic of finding secrets in the attic used in the book, is a favourite among authors in the past decade, this again dates this book back to around to nineties. I find no reason for this book to be banned at all, compared to what is written nowadays. Banned books are only to give a warning to parents who might actually care is it not?
Banned books, it means NOTHING. You find ninety percent of banned books in a normal library. What surprises me though, is why they don't ban MAGAZINES, no because magazine have money clipped inside of them. Books on the other hand, no major company backs it up, they only provide people imagination, reflect profound things on life and our society, and they are only a sign of intelligence. Skimpy ladies in magazines are much better for our future generation!

Anyway, I believe the truth about Janie will be "revealed" soon.
