I chose this quote because it conveys the death of a character in a different way than most books I have read do. Typically, in the other books I have read, the death is significantly more intense, but in this book, its over in one sentence. since this character is one of the most important characters in the story, a more detailed death would be expected. The reason believe this was a good choice is because it puts more of an emotional impact on the reader, because it doesn’t overuse anything to make it more emotional, and it doesn’t use too little.
