Before reading the book American Sniper, I would tell you I was aware of what are military and seal teams do. Now, I can tell you i've never been more wrong. In the book American Sniper the reader gets a first hand account of the battle field and what goes into making someone a Navy Seal through Chris Kyle's personal accounts. Kyle takes the reader through his life beginning with his upbringing in Texas and finishing with his homecoming from war after his fourth deployment. The book is meant to show and encourage other young aspiring people to learn about and possibly pursue a military career, but as Kyle says, “it's not for everyone.” I personally really liked certain aspects of the book, and only disliked a few often repetitive scenes. If you have ever been interested or wondered about what our unsung heros have to go through everyday while you are safe at home than I suggest you give this book a read. I promise you won't be let down.

One of the most prominent fight scenes in the movie Kill Bill includes the main female character, referred to as “The Bride,” in the foreground and about a dozen or more men in the middleground and background. The background seems as though this scene is taking place in an Asian style restaurant or building. There are about five men who are lying dead on the floor as the other men stand surrounding the main character. All of the men are shown holding a samurai sword with both of their hands while the main character is shown holding her sword with only her left hand. The men are all dressed in black suits with their faces covered by black masks. While the main character is wearing a bright yellow with black stripes tracksuit. She seems to be of Caucasian descent while the men are of Asian descent. These elements convey a drastic contrast between the main character and the rest of the characters. By doing so, this scene challenges the idea of gender roles in society.

"The Sniper" places a strong emphasis on the evils of war, and yet paints a vivid image of mankind's qualities and their society. Employing the technique of describing one particular sniper to symbolise a general subject, readers are able to gain a deep insight into the evils of war. In this story, the assembly of setting, contrasting characters and themes of fanaticism and division of loyalties are vital to conveying the horror of war. On the other hand, "The Sniper" also discusses the power of war, depicting it as the decider of life and death for men. Its force is further emphasised when neighbours are turned into enemies under war's influence.

Ater this happended, I fell like the sniper could of gotten mad, angry, sad, and felt really sorry for what he did. He didnt know who he shot, so he could be wishing he could of known who he was in the begining. The sniper could have fallen to his kness and could have been screaming. The book dosent say this, but from experience, and other people's experience I could tell he would be doing this. Now if he didnt love his brother, then he would of just turned it over then leave, and really not care about it. But I think he did care about his brother and he propably wish that he was in his spot intead. The resolution could of been he laying there and crying for his

I think that American Sniper was a great book and it is now one of my all time favorites. I especially liked how you explained the terms you used in the book. I did not know all the terms you used, but with your explanations I was never confused after reading on. I also liked how you made the reader feel like he or she was in the situation in the book. When discussing your battle situations, you used lots of detail. This let the reader know exactly what you were talking about. One other part I liked was the way you used sarcasm. Throughout the book your occasional sarcasm made me laugh and keep reading. For all of these reasons, I will definitely be reading this book again.
