All About The Angels by Fr. Paul O’Sullivan O.P is a fantastic book that enlightens the reader about almost everything about the angels. I learned a lot from the book it was also very entertaining with all the stories. The book shows how much the angels have helped people in both the past and present. Fr. Paul O’Sullivan informs the reader that every person has their special guardian angels that protects them from all harm. “Angels were created at the same time the world was created but before man” (O’Sullivan, 50). The angels are the kindest, generous, and loving people that ever roamed the earth. They have hearts that are so pure and big. They care about every single person, and they love when you offer your prayers to them it gives them …show more content…

He created these intelligent, gentle, and caring creatures that protect us on a daily basis, and that every single person has their special angle. God must care if he created a unique guardian for every person in the world. By using this information about the angels, I can show anyone how much God cares for his children. If I were discussing this topic, then I would probably just explain that God created angels to protect and comfort us. I would also say that they watch us every day and will always be there if you pray to them. The most important lesson from this book, All About the Angels, is that we should thank the angels for everything they have done. Usually, most people don’t pray to them daily. After reading this book, I believe everyone should say a prayer to their guardian angels to show their gratitude towards them. The angels teach many lessons such as completely believing in God’s word. For example, with Zachariah he didn't think that his wife could have children because of her old age, so he was punished by not being able to talk until he admitted his sins. In chapter 8 in the book, there is a story about a boy named Daniel who was put to death for sticking with his morals and religion. As you can see with Daniel in the Lion’s Den, God will always protect you when you stick by his side. When Daniel was thrown into the lion’s den the lions could not open their mouths it was as if

The Killer Angels is written in a way that is easy to understand. Each character is easy to understand and each one is described so the reader knows exactly who they are and what they are fighting for. I definitely enjoyed this book for this same reason. It is not a boring historical novel written in a third person view. The book tells the stories of the men that suffered so much throughout the battle from their own perspectives.

The Killer Angels follows the three day long, decisive battle of Gettysburg during the United States Civil War. The book’s storytelling is purely chronological, as the story progresses our perspective is flip flopped between the Union and Confederate sides of the battle, however the story is consistently told in the 3rd person. Michael Shaara uses immense details when describing this battle and does an incredible job of describing every character and scene, making everything easy to visualize and allowing you to put yourself in the story. The story reveals to us the thought process of all the seemingly fearless military leaders, as they discuss battle strategies and how to outsmart their opponent. Many characters throughout the book explain

Bertrand Russell once said, “War doesn’t determine who’s right, only who’s left.” The Vietnam War was one in particular where soldiers often struggled with who the enemy was. War is too often thought of as something to be won, but this novel reveals it is simply something to be survived, and the shell of a person that is left will not be the same one that walked into battle. That is a jarring reality very prominent in Fallen Angels by Walter Dean Myers. It is a lesson soldier Richard Perry learns all too well on his journey from innocent young boy to Vietnam veteran.

In A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings, author Gabriel Garcia Marquez uses imagery, simile, symbolism and metaphor to describe the mistreatment of an ‘angel’ that fell from the sky, revealing the theme that assumptions can lead to unwarranted misfortune for the one being judged. This theme is first presented when characters Pelayo and Elisenda discover a man with wings. “He was dressed like a ragpicker… his pitiful condition of a drenched great-grandfather took away and sense of grandeur he might have had” (Marquez, 975). Through visual imagery and simile, describing the winged man as a great grandfather and a ragpicker, he is connoted as grotesque, malformed, and of no use. These assumptions piled negative connotations on the old man without
