One of the books that i read this semester was the 5th wave. That book was good i suggest you read it because i liked it but that's my opinion on that book. I thought that the 5th wave was a good book i think it was a fiction book i like fiction books they are good stories that you can tell. It was a good short story.the book was just right but hard at the same time it was overall a good lexile for me. My thought about reading this book is i liked it but i wouldn't read it again but it was good. The only reason i wouldn't read it again is because i like to switch …show more content…
She was surviving on her own and that’s what i like. I like people that are alone because it inspires me when they have the strength to do things on their own its kinda like my mom she was single for a while raising 4 kids in her own she inspires me to be able to be independent and have that same strength. I learned that being alone is ok but not all the time but you can do it. The memorable topic is that the girl had enough power and strength to be alone and the power to be able to do her own …show more content…
The book i really liked was football genius because i have a passion for football. My favorite author was tim green because he wrote football genius. The changes i would make is the daily reading to the end of the class because i like to read toward the end of the class because i feel like it would be easier so that way you have more time to do your assignments. The reason i would rate the daily reading a 6 is because i hate reading a lot. But there are things in life you have to deal with in life because that's how it

This book was a good read for me, but I also read book reviews to help me keep track on what I am reading. These book reviews just made a better understanding of what I was reading.
She was poor and very hungry. She got help from other girls who were suffering just like her. She just wanted to better her life because it was something her ancestors couldn’t do. She ended up learning that it is indeed hard to be an American. The Americans treated her like garbage and the nameless girl found out that “America” still needed improvements. In order for America to be the promised land, the nameless girl had to give a small portion of her own. The nameless girl felt sad for what was going to happen tomorrow because America would be too wise, too open hearted, too friendly handed, to let the least comer to come and make them feel unwanted.
I would recommend this book to a certain type of person that I am not. This book would be great for someone who wants to learn more about the fishes that most commonly end up on their plate. If someone was interested in in the future of the oceans and the last wild food, this book would be great for them. While I did not enjoy the book I still give it three stars out of five due to being full of good information to those that want it.

The things this reader likes about this book is that it was interesting in the fact that it had real stories from real veterans in the war. Some of the stories were explained in gruesome detail in which this reader thought was very disturbing. It is disgusting to know what happened to some of the Vietnamese and veterans during that war. What this reader also liked was how they explained the war while showing the opinions of some of the veterans. The least thing this reader liked about this book was that it didn’t keep you on the edge. Even though this was a war story it didn’t captivate me as much as I would have wanted it to. It became boring at parts when they explained how the war started and how the Chinese were trying to take control of Vietnam. What the author should have done was explain the war with minimum detail and have many comments from the people who were actually involved in it.

My opinion of this novel is that it was a good book. If I personally had to pick a book to read it would not be my first choice. But overall I had an easy time reading this book and it actually meant something so it wasn’t too bad. At the end I was satisfied for the time read.

Throughout the story there are several aspects of the Protagonist’s character that play a major role in the shaping of her future. During her childhood she often demonstrates a sense of fear when she is sent to her bedroom. “We were afraid of the inside, the room were we slept (pg. 549).” She is intimidated by her personal space because she does not have control over it. Later, she gains control by adding lace to her side of the room; symbolically adding personality to herself and slipping into womanhood. When she felt uncomfortable she exercised her imagination, to psychologically regain control over the confusion in her life. Her subconscious effort to control confusing times were carried on to her later years as she was constantly put in difficult situations, which helped her to adjust quickly to change during adulthood. The dreams she created changed when she began to place emphasis on her appearance-that which she could control, other than past dreams of heroism that seemed so distant from reality. The Protagonist filled her childhood with much pride and maintained a consistent focused upon the activities that filled her childhood. She relished working at the side of her father, taking immense pride in every aspect of her assigned duties. She proclaimed, “I worked willingly under his eyes, and with a feeling of pride (pg. 551)” Once after her father introduced her to a feed sales man as “my new hired man (pg. 551),” the Protagonist was flooded with pride as she “turned away and raked furiously, red in the face with pleasure (pg. 551).” In her later years her pride helped her to assemble strong self-confidence she used in her years of growing. Passion and depth were characteristics that impacted her future as a woman. Her passion and depth was revealed early on in the story ...
My relationship with books and reading has not been the greatest adventure for me thus far. I will not say that all my experience has been terrible but for the most part not that great. I know for me it started when I was little and unfortunately it has carried to my adulthood.
