 I started to read  this book about a week ago and I am almost finished. I have seen the movie about a hundred times and never knew it was a book at first.Celie is the main character  .She has had at least two children by her father and is now worried about her sister's safety; Even though her father has remarried.When she gave birth to her children her father took them and she has never seen them since.She has always kinda been the care taker since her mother had become sick so she did all of the house chores. Her sister Nettie has always been prettier and smarter than her.A man  named Mr._____ come to her fathers house wanting to marry her little sister.Her father say she to young but I think he just want her for himself .He offer Celie to him instead.Mr.____ don't want Celie but after a few months he decide to accept the offer only because he need somebody to take care of his kids.Upon arrival at Mr____ house she realized that she got her work cut out for her. His children are rude,dirty, nappy headed children.The one thing Celie was not looking forward to was sex with Mr.____.She just closed her eyes , hoping it would go by faster.She work hard around the house trying to create some what of a suitable home for herself even though this is the last place she wants to be. She getting alittle happier now that her sister Nettie coming to live with them.But she worries that Mr.___ Might try to pursue her.
