The Bluest EyE

I am currently on my second book called The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison. It is a pretty good book so far. There are many parts that show a lot of understanding of what this book is about. There is this girl who lives in a pizza parlor and is jealous of the white community. She goes through many problems in her life because her whole family is poor. She struggles through being happy. She want someone to appreciate and like her for who she is. But, it seems that being a white person such as Shirley Temple, at the time, is the way to be beautiful. She doesn't like her because she dances with her relative on the television. She is right now communicating with 3 women who are whores living in an apartment. She is right now looking up to them as family and people that can guide her through her conflicts. She is learning how to be liked by other people from these 3 women. So, I'm guessing she might turn out to be like them because she is walking on their path.
