The Chosen One pg 101-213

The Chosen One by Carol Williams was a really good book. Kyra is still trying to be with Joshua instead of with her uncle, and during this time I was really hoping she would be able to be with Joshua instead of her uncle. That would be so horrible to have to marry your uncle and have kids with him. It sickens me just hearing this, because it isn't right for her to have to marry her uncle. I think it is wrong that she has been chosen to marry her uncle, and that she does not get to chose who she wants to be with. If she doesn't want to be with her uncle, then she shouldn't have to marry him. I think that destroys the whole getting married situation, because she doesn't get to fall in love with that certain someone when The Prophet chooses who she shall marry. Anyone in life wouldn't want to have their husband or wife chosen for them. I think it isn't right that anyone should have to have someone else choose who they shall marry. That isn't how life should go. It should be when you meet that certain someone and you fall in love, without someone choosing your destiny for you. You should have the right to choose who you want to get married to. I find that the ending of this book was kind of a scary time for Kyra, with all that was happening. I am also very grateful that she is safe now, and with a family that will take good care of her, and that she won't have to worry anymore.
