The Bluest Eye

        I thought that this novel was for the most part, very interesting. The scene I wanted to discuss the most was when the children were outside, basically trying to help Pecola from bleeding. I feel like, this is such a real life situation mainly because every girl goes through menstruation in their lives. Some undergo it at a young age, some older but unless you've been taught about what it is, it can be very scary to go through. I can't imagine what was going through Pecola's mind at that moment, like it's such a personal moment but obviously she didn't know any better. It's clear that she didn't really have a guardian or somewhat mother-figure in her life to teach her about things like that so when it happened she had no idea what to do or what was going on. For any girl, that's such an important conversation to have.
