Janie

To me Janie has many traits that makes her character very interesting and its set up so good by the author that through everything that happens in this book and all she goes through that she continues to look for her dreams and try to find love. Shes interesting to me because when i think of her character my thoughts lead me to a lot of ideas about her in the sense that shes trying very hard to find love. Like shes been married into what she thought would be a great marriage because of what her grandma told her and who her grandma set her up with, but when it boils down to what Janie herself wants she sees that it isn't her first husband because of all the little things that he does or all the little things he does. But that's funny because she was set up with him because he was stable and had money and could provide a good way of living for her. But the truth of the matter is that she doesn't care because shes going after love and she wants happiness more than just to be taken care of but she wants to love. So throughout the first marriage i questioned whether she was with him for what he had and what he could do for her or was it because he made her feel really could and she developed feelings for him. And from how her grandma described him it was for Janie to be taken care of. So i felt as if she was married for the material things and not the love. But the fact that she left him and went to a guy who made her happier in a sense i started to feel as if, ok she is looking for love. But then the fact that the new guy was rich also it took me back to the thoughts that she was maybe into it for all the material things. But then she took another turn with wanted to move on because she felt tied down and she wasn't really happy anymore and he died and she moved on. So overall so far Janie is the most interesting character because shes starting to be unpredictable which is only making the book a little more interesting to read, so i'm curious to see how she'll act in the upcoming chapters.
