Please Stop Laughing At Me

An additional objection that I had for this book was that in some parts, it failed to narrow in on where the setting was. At some points, it would simply state an island, or maybe just a city name. As readers, we cannot be expected to know where these places are or what country they are in. As an author, she should have clarified these details better.

There are many young aged kids and teens who experience bullying, some of them bullied for their appearance, some for their popularity status, and others surprisingly let themselves. However, it’s pretty doubtful anyone really knows why a kid would let themselves be bullied. Author Gary Soto developed a short story called “Fear” designating bullying with no specific theme but made to feel the anxiety or agitation of its presence of danger, pain, and evil. This author's breathtaking story is about a young 5th-grade boy named Frankie T. (F.T) with many things gone wrong in his family/life. Those things turned him to be a bully and later someone who would drown their own brother in a pool, and beat a woman with a lengthened pipe in a burglary years later. Frankie T. is an interesting character that can be better understood by examining his Character Traits, Contributing Factors, and his Motivations.

The author’s style of writing is straightforward and to the point and the novel is unique because it is written through the different perspectives of the four main characters. The switching of perspectives throughout the book is what made the book so hard to put down. I could see, compare and contrast how the characters themselves feel about the situation. As this goes on, the reader can comprehend the characters’ personalities better and their view on the other characters. If this story was written from just one point of view, one wouldn’t be able to figure out each character’s thoughts and perception of people around them.

     The author wrote this story as a literary genius. There is an extreme level of suspense that leaves you wanting

Encountering vicious messages constantly, either through media or speech, Nicole Edgington and Lizzie Velasquez were faced with difficult bullying circumstances that they describe in the articles: “The Girl Who Got Even: A True Cyberbullying Story” and “Lizzie Velasquez: My Anti-Bullying Story.”

The style of this story was not the greatest in the beginning, but got better the further into the story I got. As a reader, I found it very hard to concentrate on the first few pages because it had a very slow start to it. Once Bartleby was introduced, however, it was much easier to concentrate. The author created a great sense of mystery around Bartleby, and that is what pulled me into the story. I wanted to figure out who Bartleby was, where he came from, and why he behaved the

This book doesn't just make you think about your life in a different way, it makes you think about writing in a different way. There's so many little things in the book that were symbolically important, Art on the first day of school and how she would be working on making a tree different, not just a tree. You began to realize the more Melinda learned and the more Melinda went through, the more she began to understand the tree, the roots, and the dying leaves. There's many things in this book that are symbolically that you might not notice unless you analyze it in your own way.

I’d like to build on what I was saying about understanding the book, when I read it especially in certain chapters when something big happened, I could predict what was going to happen. This was a really intense book but after the theme I could understand it.

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

This is largely due to the boring plot. The antagonists are obvious from the beginning. The boring predictability of the book left almost no room for imagination and the story was so obvious that there was almost no point in finishing it because it was obvious about what was going to occur. Furthermore, there is a love interest that after a while is just thrown is as an afterthought. In other words, it was like he didn’t even exist at one point in the book. Sadly, the characters fall victim to a boring and predictable story. In conclusion, the characters’ personalities are the only aspect that made the book acceptable.

Over the summer when I was sitting home and reading, The book was extremely hard and confusing to me. The book was so boring it was hard for my brain to stay focused on it. After a few chapters that I read I was hoping I could go look up some notes online to see if i get what was actually happening in the book, but no there was nothing on it. The whole summer I had to read that book and read chapters over and over again until I really understood the book and what was happening in the chapters.

     I believe that this was a pretty decent book, at times it was boring and

The book Nineteen Minutes is a tragic story about a teenage boy going into his high school one day and start to shoot at people after being constantly bullied since kindergarten. The book Please Stop Laughing at Me is a true story about the author’s own experiences being bullied in school. These two books both deal with the trauma of growing up being bullied and how they both handled it. Peter Houghton, the bullied victim in Nineteen Minutes, decided to take action himself because no one else was helping him. Jodee Blanco, after years of bullying, decided to make a book about her own experiences with bullying in her years after high school. Both books share lots in common, starting from their main characters to the characters experiences,

The book itself was hard to comprehend for me because it was so detailed I didn’t remember the important parts. It was a good story with a good moral but I never was excited or eager to read it. In other words it never put me on the edge of my seat. So basically what i’m saying is that this story was boring. Yes there was some action but it wasn’t intense in my opinion. To make this book better I would say don't depict the details on what doesnt matter and focus more on the moral or the lesson of the story. But the book did very well putting the lesson out there, but adding more detail would make it that much easier to

Already I can tell that this book is more difficult than most other novels I have read. It seems as though Roth is in favor of using long sentences and complex vocabulary. I sometimes had to reread sentences a few times because there was difficult vocabulary I needed to look up and the sentences were long. I needed to read each sentence piece by piece to make sure I could understand what the author wanted to convey to the reader. Although the text seemed overwhelming when I read the first few pages; once I began reading sentences in increments I could more easily understand the text.
