This week I finished reading "Invitation Only". I think that this book was very relatable to justice. Justice is fairness and in the book there was not a lot of fairness. For example, people who got scolarships to the school were not treated the same as people who could afford to pay to go to the school. In the end of the book I do not think that justice was served. I thik that justice would have been served if the billings girls would have apologized to Reed or if they would have gotten in trouble. I think that Reed, the main character represents justice. I think that the billings girls are the ones who blocks justice. Their motivation is that they want to see if Reed can really "be one of them". I don't think that in the real world if this had happened it would have ended in the way that it had ended in the book.
I think that justice would have been served if something had haooened to the Billings Girls. I think that they are the ones that caused there to be no justice in the end. I believe that they should have been punished for what they had done to Reed and what they had made Reed (and not only Reed) do. I believe that justice would have been served even if the Billings Girls had just been caught in their act and what they were doing. I feel like they deserved to have something happen to them for the pain that they caused in others. They can what ever they want so quickly and they make others do their stuff for them. The blackmail people so that they could get what they want. Blackmailing is not justice.
I believe that Reed is the person who represents justice. Reed is like the person in the middle, she's nice to everyone and she's friends with the popular kids and the not so popular kids. I think that she is the one who represents justice because she is the main one that the harm is really done to. Reed is probably the typical person that everyone would think represents and symboliozes justice. Reed does not do anything to harm anyone, but people do things to harm her. Harming people and mis treating them is not justice.
I think that it is the Billings Girls who block justice. I think that because they are the ones that are causing all the harm to Reed. Their motivation is that they want everything done their way and they want everyone to follow them. Reed doesn't follow them and they saw that they could take advantage of her. they took advantage of that oppurtunity and they took advantage of Reed.
In conclusion, I think that justice is not served in a lot of places and times. A lot of times justice is also not rewarded to the right person. Situatations like thius would probably not come out the same way. The people who did the wrong things (in this case the Billings Girls) would probably get in trouble for blackmailing and making someone else do their chores and work. The world is very different than books, in some cases the world is better and in others it's worse.
