I've finally finished!
This was a really great book.
Okay, so Celie finally got up the courage to stand up to Mr____. and tell him that she is finally leaving with Shug to Memphis. She told Mr.____ while everyone was around; Shug, Harpo, Sofia, and Harpo's second wife, Squeak. Everyone was so surprised that Celie finally mustered up enough courage to stand up to Mr._____. Even Squeak confessed that she was going too. Anyways, Shug and Celie leave to Memphis together and stay at Shug's house. Everything starts looking up for Celie. She recently takes up the hobby for making pants and that soon turns into a small business. Nettie is schedualed to come back as well. Later on, Celie finds out that her stepfather dies and she overtakes his house which is big enough for herself, Nettie, Netties husband whom she met in Africa, Sofia, Harpo, and Squeak. However, Shug ends up falling in love with a 19 year old guy from her band and that breaks Celie's heart. But in the end, Celie ends up having the life, the family, and the love that she had been dreaming of.
This book in all, taught the lesson of never giving up and never losing faith, because in order for things to get better, they need to get worse first.

I still think it's pretty interesting how we never find out the name of Celie's husband. Overall I think the story seems really good and that the message behind it was well written.
I also agree with your last statement. I mean I feel that in order for you to appreciate the good things in life, you have to know the bad.
