Their Eyes Were Watching God

I thought the movie and the book were both great. It really makes you look at your own life and see if it is really what you want. Are you really as happy as you can be? It makes women realize that they can stand up for themselves and have a voice to speak. It is very influential on many people, and should be. Janie starts off thinking she is a strong woman and really ends up being one with Tea Cake because of the events that have happened in her life. Everyone can relate to this book because we all have things that we arent proud of and arent happy about, but Janie takes what she is given and makes a life of it, a good life at that. She finds herself and becomes the woman she always wanted to be.
