"After I laid the map open on the dining table, Abba showed us the thick arteries of highways, the spidery blue line of the border" Page 10
I think this is an interesting quote because in the documentary some of the borders were mountain ridges or holes in walls or rivers. I think it is interesting to compare the real borders to the ones on the maps.

AMNQ --Blog 1
The sentence that I chose is
"It's hard to have a sister who is perfect."
I chose this sentence because i thought it said a lot about the character. It says that she really doesn't think very highly of herself. It seems that she thinks that her sister is better than her and her parents love Aisha, her sister, more than they love her. I think that would be a terrible feeling to think your parents love your sister more than you and that she is better than you. I think this is probably something she has struggled with most of her life and probably for the rest of the book.
