to the 1960’s. The book clearly gives an insight to the past. Unlike other book, The Outsiders has its own unique meaning. The author created something different than a modern clique book that I read in my day to day life. Hinton’s word choice creates an interesting book where it felt as if it was non-fiction than young-adult fiction. I like this book because the author made something extraordinary by stating the past rather than another author’s writing twenty-first century book. The theme of the

The fiction book I chose to read was Birthmarked by Caragh O’Brien. This book reminded me of The Giver by Lois Lowry, which we read in school last year. One of the main reasons they appeared similar to me is that they both focus on dystopian societies. In The Giver, the main character was a boy inside the community, but in Birthmarked, it was a girl outside the community.

Instinct is the gut-level capacity to pursue the right goals in the best and smartest ways. Tenacity is the degree to which you persist, commit to, stick with, and relentlessly go after whatever you choose to achieve.
