Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

After reading the book I will say that I enjoyed it a lot more than what I thought I was. I honestly didn’t feel like it had a lot of weaknesses to it. With that being said I felt that the book had a few strengths that stood out about it. One of the first things that stood out about it was the style that the book was written. I felt that it was well written in context and in style. I love the style that he wrote for his chapters. Like most books this book had names in its chapters. I know that doesn’t sound special but I felt like the names of the chapters flowed with what the chapter. I felt when reading the book that I was reading a book within a book because every chapter was a little different in its own way.

The reviews I found were from those who have read the book. Here are just a few of what I found:

On to the positives! From the plot line to the writing style, to the character development, it was well put together. Quite a few times, I even found myself looking up certain words as I had never seen or heard them before. I, for one, will not complain about learning some new complex words. The pacing was also steady, once I started reading the book, I found it difficult to put down, especially towards the end, when everything came to a head. Lastly, the character development was wonderful.

5. Below is a list of words that Cowie uses in his review. Go through the list and note any words you don’t know. Do you think the words he uses are appropriate for the ideas he is trying to express and the audience he is writing for, or is his vocabulary too sophisticated? Did you have any trouble understanding the review when you were reading

I thought that this book had many strength and weakness. The strengths of this book are that it has conflict and enmity. I also think it has a lot of symbols in it. Some of the weakness I think are that it kind of strings you along and I think there needed to be some more action in this novel to make it a little bit more interesting. It depends who the person I would recommend this book to. I think that you half to like this kinds of books to read them. If it was someone who loved action and stuff going on at all time I would not recommend

All of these reviews talk about how Wayne Coffey describes the game. Everyone as well as myself, agrees that the detail of the game makes it like a live play-by-play with extra information. I could not find any reviews that were totally negative against the book and this is all credit to how tremendous of a job that Wayne Coffey did. The Kirkus Review was impressed with how Coffey didn’t beat-to-death the concept of the Miracle win. He instead went into great depth and insight into the players lives in which we have never seen before. It is pretty cool to see someone take that much pride in their research and help the people get to know their own hero’s that much better. Some negative views about the book were mostly from sources that didn’t think the story was started at the right time, and they believed the lead up to the Soviet game was just as important. Others didn’t like how the book skipped around from topic to topic and then back to the game so

Grace Miyamoto Journal 1 Free Reading The Book Thief I chose to read the book The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. There were a few factors into why I chose to read this book. The first reason that I read it was because my older brothers had read this book before me and had recommended that I should read it.

He is speaking to the consumer and encourages you to go see the movie, clearly concluded by giving it a 4.5 out of a 5 star rating. His review references the story line, the folklore music, the characters and the actors playing the characters. He does not give anything away, matter of fact it is a high level view, he just says enough to grab your attention. In addition, he weaves in how the actors were able to add valuable characteristics to their characters. This is beneficial for those that have a favorable opinion of one or more of the actors playing a character in the movie. If the story line did not attract you enough, the fact that one of your favorite actors is in the movie might entice you. He ends his review with this statement: “Moana” brings us a non-traditional Disney Princess that’s unique, long overdue and feels right at home.” Although, his write up is about 40% shorter than the one in the New York Times, this one added more value to the movie itself by focusing on the movie and not on Disney. The difference between each author’s closing statements sums it all

The book that I am reviewing is called the Goddess of Yesterday and was written by Caroline B Conney. Conney’s objective was to entertain young adults like me with a story that involves greek mythology. The story of Goddess of Yesterday is about a girl named Anaxandra travels to a certain country. While she’s there, pirates invade the country and she is the only survivor. A neighboring country saves her and gives her a place to live. Because of the queen, Helen, Anaxandra goes to Troy and lives there while everyone is getting ready for the Trojan war. Anaxandra gets caught up in the war but was saved by the king, Menelaus, at the end. The plot was good but didn’t flow well. Every country Anaxandra went to, it felt like a new story. The different
