• The part I liked was when Joe was trying his best to not scold his younger brother. I liked this part out of five chapters because it reminded me of my past life in South Korea with my autistic cousin. I was happy to see Joe when he did not yell in front of his brother. It gave me a flashback because I used to try my best to not shout out in front of my cousin because he will get frighten easily. Instead of shouting out to him, I carefully described the reasons in relaxed voice. I was surprised by Carl Iverson’s action in the courtroom because he demanded a speedy trial while the Department of Defense was attempting to break the code. The appearance of Crystal dead body caught my attention because I only expected she would burn her body and
In my opinion I thought that this book was a very good book. In this chapter I will describe the setting, theme, plot and conflict etc. This book had a few different settings like
This question is honestly the most difficult to answer. The entire book was intriguing from start to finish. I would say that what I liked the most about this book is all the pictures he placed on there. He captured every image with so much meaning. It is as it’s said, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” I got to see the faces of the fellow heroes in Fallujah.
The best part in the chapters is when they arrived in Bellingham. It was about the time when things were about to change. It was nice because it described how John felt towards making new friends and adjusting to a new life.
These chapters led me into a dark reflection of who Jody truly was. He swooped me off my feet when I met his character, just like he swooped Janie off of hers. He made promises that seemed hopeful and sincere. However, through these chapters I felt as if I saw his true colors. He seemed to be just like the rest of the men. I hate to classify them and stereotype them, but he was not so charming after all.
My favorite chapter so far was chapter five because Salamano tells Meursault why he bought his dog in the first place. That story made me so sad it was good to know the backstory. The rest of the book has very little emotion and that story is a nice change of pace and topic. That chapter ends with my favorite quote from the whole book so far. Salamano says, “I hope the dogs don’t bark tonight. I always think it’s mine.” I’ve read this quote over and over again and I think I like it because it shows such longing and disappointment. I wonder if Raymond feels the same way about the woman he
This section, I believe, was a little less focused with each chapter’s messages being more muddled compared to the first part of the book. While I did connect with the dyslexia section and found the tale of IKEA’s creator to be extremely interesting, I thought his connection made from that to people’s reactions during the London Blitz needed more development. Also, as a side note, why did Gladwell act like revealing Brian Grazer’s profession was a surprise? Anyone who has ever seen any Ron Howard Oscar bait movie knows this guy’s name. I was definitely onboard with the idea with the ideas of this work after Part One, but I feel like Part Two stumbled a little
Step 3: The part I loved the best was everything. I enjoyed the entire book combined with the characters, scenes, and actions; it just kept me posted and absolutely engrossed.
Some positives or likes I had while reading are as follows below. One like I had about the book was the description of the murder. “The eye sockets were empty.” (pg. 43) This helps you envision the body, how they found it in the book. Another like I had with the book is, ““She bought a car, Cam. She’s left New York.”” (pg.73) The aspect of her long lost mother rushing to see her the entire story adds more suspense. The last thing I enjoyed about the book is, “Kyle’s hand reached in front of her and snapping it shut with a small click.” (pg.232). I like the end how Kyle is the killer, a twist I think no one expected.
I skipped ahead in you book in class all the time i couldn't help but continue on with reading some parts were funny and some were sad to me the book revolved around rob and his feelings my best hope while reading was that rob would open up and finally be able to talk to his dad after finishing
The author, Phyllis A. Roth, is not your ordinary feminist, because she is also a Freudian. A better term to describe Roth would be a psychoanalytic feminist. One of her works as an author can be found in the back of the book Dracula: A Norton Critical Edition. Her criticism article is titled Suddenly Sexual Woman in Bram Stoker’s Dracula. In her article she analyzes the famous novel Dracula. She explores how gender plays a role in the novel and the concept of femininity. She writes about the transformation that takes place when a proper lady turns into a sexual vampire. Her article points out where hostility toward women 's sexuality is displayed in the novel, that the average reader may not pick up on. Roth has a strong argument. Let us examine Roth’s case.
First, I found it hard to follow at times. I think it would have been easier to understand if the chapters were shorter and more broke up. Although this book included lots of details like the thesis was proving about the sex scandal, I feel that some details were unnecessary and not needed. The book also jumped back and forth between people and topics which made the book harder for me to understand. Improvements could have been made in the layout and structure of this book. In my opinion, I think the author included more background information at the beginning of the book. To me, this book seemed hard to understand and follow. It skips back and forth between years and events that make it hard to
The book had a lot of hard times in the middle of the trouble like when the dome first came down the family's that had lost love ones. Page 80. A man had lost his wife from the dome coming down on the middle of the garden and right on her fingers. She could not get help because all the doctors where busy with other people in the time she died because lose of blood. In the beginning of the book junior went and killed Angie out of rage. Page 42. The people in the car wreck in the dome where running from the cops. Page 33. In the middle the people started to turn and kill for the resources to safe there live page 200. The people started to trust the people that they have never know before like the two people that showed up right before the pink stars. Page 333. I like the book because of the faith that they had to have to get through the hard times in dome. When they started to trust big Jim witch was not trusted with the Important thing for the dome. I like when they had to choose sides if they go with the two girls or not in the book. Page 350. I like the fact that they got out of the dome after a lot time of suffering and little resources to use. Page
Lastly, the novel, A Visit from the Goon Squad, written by Jennifer Egan, is a novel that shares several short narratives of multiple characters lives. Egan displays this novel as a series of chapters features an interlink between characters at different points in their lives. The overall theme that Egan relays to readers is that in life you will make several mistakes, some may be more senseless than others. Nonetheless you are able to prevail and grow from the mistakes you have made. Egan shows this throughout the entire book.
During a trial, there are many rules, procedures, and codes of conduct that must be observed. These are in place to allow a trial to proceed more efficiently and fairly for both the defense and prosecution. According to one author, “Police, prosecutors, and criminal court Judges see too much crime, so they tend to see crime everywhere. We need rules to control their conduct, Judges to carefully apply those rules, and other Judges to review those decisions (law-article.net).” Courtroom procedures are important because, without them, defendants and prosecution alike could be treated unfairly. These procedures give a standard format for trials that must be followed to ensure that all parties have an equal opportunity to present their
Overall, I liked the detail in the chapters and that the author did add commentary and not just fact after fact. I also liked the he focused on the French army and their leadership as well as the other countries to see how they all worked together to finally end the
