Joe Hill Apocalypse

I love the way the author represents the wild life. The wild life actually seems like our society in some ways. I think that the characters would do anything that it takes to overcome their problems, just like in our community. For example, I could see how the wolves were trying to survive and not to die from hunger. Also, it was really impressive how Henry and Bill tried to protect themselves from the wolves. I was getting curious about how they thought they were going to get away alive from a pack of forty wolves. It seemed pretty hard to me. Anyway, I was surprised as how the group remained. The six dogs and Bill got caught by the wolves and Henry ended up by himself. I thought this was a very good example

I give this book a solid B+, because I think he did a very nice

I think that this work is a very well put together book. Even though In the earlier questions I make it sound like a ten on ten this book is not. I rate this book a 9/10 for the soul reason that it was on a very directed path and you could the events that were going to happen before they did by just reading the book. Even the twist that the author put in were not that book which made some of the book predictable and who really wants a book in which they know everything that is going to happen.

I, personally, loved the author's writing, although I did not really understand why she structured the book like so. With each chapter changing different perspectives and stories, it was kind of hard to remember which chapter went with another considering the chapters where out of order. With each story, I was a little annoyed that they just suddenly ended at the end of the chapter. It made me want to read more and more trying to find the next chapter that went with that person's story. It was also kind of difficult to connect the stories. Other than that, she did a marvelous job grabbing my attention. I loved the analogies that she included in the stories. For example, on page 216- 217, one of the mothers told her daughter about a turtle that eats her tears and then creates birds that laugh

Firstly, the authors all aim for a more intellectual audience that find horror stories entertaining. These articles were written for The New York Times and The Atlantic Monthly, which are both papers for very intelligent people. The New York Times and The Atlantic Monthly are both known for being very complex reads, so people must be very intelligent to understand them. Authors Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan use high vocabulary words such as “enthrone,” “pandemic,” and “archetypal” to show the difficulty of this reading. This

I love the way the author explains himself along the story, he can use many types of figurative language at the same time and the reader can still have a clear idea of what the author is trying to address. I think that through this book, Jack London proved that he has an awesome writing style, because he can describe the characters, the animals and their surrounding in “White Fang” in a very interesting manner. For example, when he says: “He pointed toward the wall of darkness that pressed about them from every side. There was no suggestion of form in the utter blackness; only could been seen a pair of eyes gleaming like live coals.” He described this in such a special way that when you’re reading the book, you can easily imagine what

First, it gives great examples of content and does a great job of giving that content a fantastic voice with the use of the protagonist, Mark watney. He gives a snarky, raised voice in a lot of situations, but he can switch

Picture a nine or ten year old, roving the backwoods of Ohio with his friends. One of them had just finished telling a story about how some kids had went missing-- presumed dead, in that very spot. Suddenly, an echo resounds, the sound of snapping branches, heralding the approach of a masked killer. Hearts pounding like a church choir, all of the boys spirit away as fast as they can, shaken to the very core, as their older friend emerges from the brush “Huh, I wonder what that was about”. As is evident in the name, the horror genre, to its credit, is full of stories about children being threatened or harmed in someway, because what’s more horrific than the future being stricken in some way? Just look at the work of

The story goes from encounter to encounter of the deadly virus and the book covered a lot of time but it did so by telling of exposures that had a couple years between each other. Preston is very descriptive, he is not overly wordy to the point that it is boring to read, but there are some facts and details that are unnecessary. I like how he gives a lot of background before a case, but at times I think I could do without so much detail. The overall flow of the book was pretty good. Preston’s writing was not choppy and was easy to read. On the other hand, the way he tells the story is a bit confusing. Although he tells the date at the top of the page, it was confusing at times when he jumped back and forth between

There was so much that was interesting and informative about this book in terms of him dissecting the factors that make for unusual success. All that was much appreciated. Especially the 10,000 hours of work to get to the level of excellence, something everyone who wants to be proficient at something knows. But he forgot the most important element: You have to LOVE it. To be honest, I liked The Tipping Point more than The Outliers.

1.Overall David Chura’s appearance was impacting enough. As someone who wants to go into this field it was great to have someone who lived through it come in and talk to us. One component of the discussion that really spoke out was the fact that each chapter was a reflection of what really happened. So many authors write from ideas in their head. Even some individuals who went through something and chose to write about it still change certain aspects about it. David actually took his journals that he wrote and formed that into the book. It is great because the wording and emotions that are brought while reading the book were some of what David was actually feeling that day when he reflected on what happened and chose to write about it. In addition,

Jared Diamond did a great job at making his points because not only did he tell us his questions and why he believes what the answer is but backed it up with plenty of examples and facts. Just like using fossils to prove of existence from millions of years ago he used plants and animals as examples to explain disease and how things spread and of why other things grew and improved faster then others. I think he is a great author, proved his points with great understanding and I enjoyed the book.

An apocalyptic story set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and almost everyone is crazed fighting for the resources of life. Within this world exists two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order. There’s Max (Tom Hardy), a man of action and a man of few words, who seeks a peace of mind following the loss of his wife and child in the aftermath of the chaos. Accompanying him is Furiosa (Charlize Theron), a woman of action and a woman who believes her path to survival may be achieved if she can make it across the desert back to her childhood homeland. In the film, a tyrannical leader named Immortan Joe (Hugh Keayes-Byrne) has multiple wives who he treats poorly and used

     Without giving away the ending, it is hard to explain what a tremendous job was done in the conclusion of the story. Simply put, the last fifty pages have to be read in one sitting—it is impossible

This is something that I thought he did wonderfully; as the book continues and he grows older, his perception and understanding of the world change along with his writing. So while he is writing
