The Coldest Winter Ever – Personal Reflection on Winter

Winter Santiago Isnt undecomposed a distinctive teenager. She Isnt typical at exclusively, she barely ever goes to school, she just now goes when she wants something. Her family life Is anything but typical, her begetter Is a extended drug dealer with a lot of money and her pay back Isnt take down like a mother to Winter, shes more Like a infant to her. Winter Is very self- absorbed she only worries about herself, even when her mom got shot In the face Winter gets jealous because she thinks her mothers hogging all the attention.She real only cares about herself. She is very street smart though, after her father goes to prison, her mother becomes a take apart head and her sisters go into care, Winter knew how to take care of herself, she knew what to do to survive on the streets without the help of her father. Shes through with(p) horrible things to survive and live the life she knew, like robbing people and betraying her family. Winter wouldnt make a unassailable vanqu ish friend at all I dont even think she would make a sound friend.She betrayed all of her friends one way or another, either by hooking up with their man because he had what she needed, or betraying Simons when she got arrested because she was telling for Winter, Simons was ready to confirm her baby and even though she said no, Winter persisted that she go and steal for her, because she wanted something, she didnt care that Simons was having a baby, if anything she employ it against her saying she would need the money that shes making stealing, for the baby, in the end Simons lost the baby, and in my opinion a lot of the blame should be on Winter.She may be a fun person to be around and go out with because she does know how to put up fun, but I would never want her as a friend because shes not loyal and she is untrustworthy.She does have a of of maturing to do though, so I really shouldnt judge too harshly, you stick out tell by the end of the book, when she Is In prison, and goes to her mothers funeral, shes a different person, her views on life are totally different, and when she sees her younger sister doing the same things she was doing she wants to stop her and tell her everything that she had gone through, but she held back knowing that it would only make her sister angry and make Winter look Jealous.I think that going to prison changed Winter In the best way, she was no longer the elf-absorbed, conceited ghetto-princess that she was before she had gone to prison, she actually grew up, and matured during her time In.
