Additionally, the subject of this novel is stated through various viewpoints of information and is understood by all audiences. In addition, the mood of the story is mysterious, unsettling, and chilling. In particular, when the author describes the murder of Emmett that is enough visualization to send chills down the reader's spine. Also, the tone of the author throughout the novel is solemn and gloomy. Lastly, not only is the novel informant: it’s also educational at the same time.
The book takes a lot of perspectives mainly among Aries, Clementine, Michael and mason. This is really good compared to other books. The multiple perspective makes it feel like a movie and mixes it up. Also, it has an abundance of suspenseful cliff-hangers that make you crave to read more and lead you on. The characters also aren’t afraid all the time and cower how most teens would. They seem to know how to live in the moment, and have good times and joke even when there is danger. That shows us they are fearless kids just about.
Overall, I thought the book took many unexpected turns that kept me on my toes. The action and dangers that Thomas and his friends faced kept me on my toes and pressed me to keep reading forward. There were a few weaknesses that I found, but they did not overshadow the great qualities of the book. The dystopian setting and suspense involved enthralled me as the reader, and I enjoyed reading
Today I started reading Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. I really like how the author describes the background of the story in the prologue of the book. It really helps to understand the story better later on. Jacob, the main character in this book, is kind of a shy kid, and seems like a slacker. He doesn’t seem to want to work hard at anything. I really love how the author jumps right into the plot with Grandpa Portman’s frantic phone call while Jacob is at work. Very excited to read more!
What makes fiction novels especially interesting are the larger messages hidden within them. The novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, by Mark Haddon does just that. The novel centers around a 15 year old genius Christopher Boone who has a mental disability of some sort, struggling with communication because of it. The book is comprised of a murder mystery novel Christopher sought to write after discovering the bloody murder of his neighbor's dog, Wellington. Gradually, the story focuses away from the main conflict and morphs into a complicated story about Christopher’s life. With that, Haddon brings out the complexity and hardships of human life, specifically through the topic of truth and deceit. The truth comes out eventually; fabricating it now will only prolong the unwanted effects later. Also, lies ruin relationships, possibly for good.
My book is Stung by Bethany Wiggins. The book is about a girl named Fiona who wakes up and has a mark on her wrist showing that she is different, but she’s even more special when she’s the first one who has ever had the cure and never been a beast. But she doesn’t know what is going on. So in the book she goes to figure out who she really is and what has happened in the world. The author uses many things to accomplish things in the story such as, symbols to show what are the major objects in the story that play a role in the story, another thing was flashbacks to give background knowledge to explain what the characters knows and to make them understand, and the last part was description. The description makes the writing more in depth making
My family always felt that knowing one 's history was of the utmost importance. Binders and books track my maternal heritage through centuries; however, my paternal side kept oral records of our heritage, so much of it was lost through the generations. Determined to find the lost information, my father and I took it upon ourselves to create our own genealogy report and dug through different documents to back trace our ancestry. It was then we discovered Thomas Glass, a Native American also known as Tagwadihi (Catawbakiller) or Chief Glass of the Chickamauga tribe in the early nineteenth century. Desperate to know more about this man, we discovered a journal that gave detailed descriptions of who he was and what he did. That journal is called the Journal of Major John Norton of 1816. This memoir gives glimpses into knowing one of my ancestors, reading from his friend 's perspectives and sharing in the interactions of a family member long since perished and otherwise unknown. From reading it I discovered the wonderful ethnographic data that it embodied. Norton 's descriptions of his acquaintances in the Cherokee nation "are frequently supported and never contradicted by historical records" and historical figures who were briefly mentioned in Cherokee documents become fully-developed in his journal (Klinck lxvi). However it raises questions as to where this journal belongs. Does it belong in Native American Studies, historical studies, or literary studies? Does John Norton have
However, I didn’t like how he transitioned the point of view from first person to third person. First of all, I liked how he created a book about one name and two different fates based off of different people. This creates the conflict of what’s happening and helps the me and other readers knows that both boys named Wes Moore has life changing experiences that turns their paths into different directions. Secondly, I also liked how he adds the theme and message about how a child needs a good role model or someone to look up to. For example, the other Wes Moore looked up to Tony but Wes followed him towards stealing and killing. I like how book states that if you have someone you can look up to, then you will create better lives and a better future for yourself. Lastly, I think the transition from first person and third person threw me off a little. Sometimes when I finish reading the book and later on in the day read the book again, I usually get confused on which Wes Moore they are talking about. I always have to read one or two pages back to see whom they are talking about. I suggest the author should make the book more clearly by marking off on top that the passages are about. I think this will make it easier for readers to read. Overall, I enjoyed reading this book and I think this book could help kids follow a right role model to have a better
I did the novel name Tears Of Tiger, the story is basically about a teenager boy, Andrew Jackson, 17 years old, plays in a Hazelwood basketball team. His friends call him Andy. It was night time and Andy and his friends, Robert, B.J. Carson, and Tyrone Mills are trying to have a good time, so they went out to get some air. They were very happy and also drinking while driving. Andy was the one who was driving and his friend Robert was on the passenger sit and B.J and tyrone was on the back. Very next moment a wall appear and they crash. They were not seriously injured but Robert got stuck and he can’t get out and they try to pulling from the top of the car but didnt work and Robert die.
It captured my attention from the beginning. I like how the Rand was descriptive words to help me have an image of what was happening in the novel. I like the story line. I like the idea of someone breaking way from everyone else and being different from others. That they are able to think for themselves and that it is ok to be different from others. I also liked how the novel had some romance because I do enjoy romance novels. The Language Police written by Diane Ravitch, I did not quit enjoy the book. I do not really like books like that. I do not recommend this book if you are not interested in how the bias panel chooses stories for children. I do recommend the novel, Anthem. It gives the reader a sense of individualism, there is a story behind
Antipas, a quite wealthy nobleman, began his letters in a bragging type of tone sharing that not only did he come from the house of Philip but he was in fact a benefactor to two very large cities in Rome. In the beginning of the book he boasted about his standing with little to no sense of restraint. But the more his relationship with Luke grew his manner became that of a much humbler person, and opened one of his letters in such a way, “Antipas, a nobleman of Caesarea; To Luke and the noble Calpurnius” (pg.157). By writing it in this fashion he was not only seeing both Luke and Calpurnius on the same level of standing as he but we wanted them to know he thought of them this way as well. Antipas’ show of humility stood to be quite significant as we see him slowly grow more and more humble while he is going through the process of being redeemed. In the beginning we could see that he thought of Christians and Jesus as a danger to the city of Rome, he also saw Jesus as a disruptive force to the way society should be. Yet the letters continued to be exchanged and through this exchange he grew more and more curious of the personage of Jesus Christ. And we start to see a change in his attitude and opinions as well as that of his grasp of the concept.
The book I'm writing about is called Stupid Fast. It's about a teenage boy who learns that he has became bigger then he feels. The people who he used to make fun of have now become his friends. He tries to understand why his family is so crazy. Then in the end he gets told about who his dad really was and everything starts to make more sense.
The characters bring a riveting story to life when reading. Throughout the book, I felt emotions left and right for the characters and what they were going through. There is a lot of mystery and questioning that will be answered later in the book, but once its done, there are still many questions being asked. when I look for a book, that is something that stands out to me because I really want to read more, and when you have that reaction to a book, that means it was worth reading. I found this book remarkable because of the behaviors, characteristics, and decisions that the characters make, and I recommend this book to everyone, even if they don’t like to

To make the book easy to understand, I would give its summary first. There are fourteen chapters corresponds to the same number of letters the author sent to a young
