The George stinny blew my mind ! At just 14 a young boy was falsely accuse Of murdering 2 young girls named Betty June binnicler 11 , and Mary Emma's Thomas 7,.According to new York times their bodies had been found brutally beaten and in a ditch in rural Carolina . People now think 70 years later George stinney was victim of a rasicst justice system in the Jim crow south . 14 year old stinney was executed , he had fallen to be one of the youngest men to be put to death by execution . The guards struggled to strap stinney to the chair . He stood at only 95 pound . The trail only lasted just 3 hours followed by a 10 minute deliberation by the jury which sentenced him to death ! Its been 70 years since stinney was executed and his family is still looking for justice !

The book ive read wich is called the fault in our stars by john green is about a young girl named hazle and a young man named august . the catch about this book is that they both have cancer . shocking right ? the book is based on there struggles daily dealing with cancer . these two meet in the cancer group meeting wich hazel hates going to .

This book is amazing i think that all teens should read this book it helps people step into people with cancers shoes and understand the struggle . august and hazel grow closer and closer daily , and there friendship is now a relationship . everything is fine until august dies . This feels like the end for hazel she feels like she cant live no more after he dies . it was tragic for her she didnt know how to handle his death . she never thought it was him that was going to win over cancer she always told him she will die first cancer will she constantly said i give up i dont want to try no more . but when august came around that all changed she was the happiest girl on earth and now that hes gone she feels like her life is over .
HERE ARE SOME QUOTES FROM THE BOOK:
You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world...but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.”
“Because you are beautiful. I enjoy looking at beautiful people, and I decided a while ago not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence”
“But it is the nature of stars to cross, and never was Shakespeare more wrong than when he has Cassius note, ‘The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars / But in ourselves.”
“I'll fight it. I'll fight it for you. Don't you worry about me, Hazel Grace. I'm okay. I'll find a way to hang around and annoy you for a long time.”
“I wanted to know that he would be okay if I died. I wanted to not be a grenade, to not be a malevolent force in the lives of people I loved.”
