the second half of the story the plot digresses from that and becomes more about trying to bust the coach for his wrong doings. It left me scratching my head as to why, when, where and how something happened far too often. Although the plot is a bit convoluted at times it is fairly good as a whole. I feel this book has a fairly sub-par plot and supporting characters but the great protagonist is what is keeping this book afloat. Without him this book would not have been a below average book
It might be weird and hard to read, but after you get the hang of it , you will think that every character is very special and unique in their own
I thought that these were good reasons why the book is so different from the
I did not have many complaints. Even though, at times, I may have felt there was information or conversations that were not entirely needed, it did add more depth to the book and allowed the reader to see more into each individual
But still, it did not ruin any part of the story for me. Another part of the novel that I did not like were the chapters
Once we move ahead with the novel, the most enjoyable for me was the character build up
Even though it was such a short book, it seemed complete. There weren’t gaps in the story like I’ve seen countless times in other short books. Nothing seemed to be missing, and there was a full
To some people it is not. Some teachers say that the book is challenging for students. Now, this novel may be difficult for students, but that is how students learn new information. If students weren’t to have read harder pieces of literature all throughout their schooling career, they would stay at the same level of reading for most of their life. The reason why students should read more challenging novels are because they learn new things, and they could also learn how to act in a certain situation based on the type of challenging story they read.
No matter one’s career choice, family life, ethnicity, or culture, finding and owning one’s personal identity is a persistent struggle that can last an entire lifetime. One is surrounded by media and messages feigning “the perfect life” which begin to consume one’s thoughts with “what if’s” or “if only’s”. Lucy Grealy struggles with defining her self-image in her autobiography, Autobiography of a Face. Throughout Grealy’s accounts of her battle with cancer, bullies, and her self-esteem, readers get a raw, painful, yet incredibly relatable look into the elements that can contribute to self-image. In writing Autobiography of a Face, Grealy leaves readers with a chilling lesson: only readers themselves, not peers or the media or society, can choose how to define their lives.
This book was interesting for me because it allowed me to relate to a character. I love reading novels that not only allow me to feel a connection with a character, but allow me to relate to their personality or
Palacio teaches us that what you look like on the outside isn’t to reflect on what is on the outside. The protagonist, Auggie Pullman is a new 5th grade student at Beecher Prep with unfavorable medical alement were his face is a bit “messed up” or “weird”. Everyone at his new school bullies him and get creeped out by his face, except for a few people named Summer, Jack and eventually, other people, too like Charlotte, Amos, and Maya. And those few people who don’t bully him know how funny, sensitive, ordinary and wonderful he is. Once again, what the author is trying to teach us is clear; It doesn’t matter about what your face looks like or what disabilities you have, the right people will look deeper than
The other characters did have much of an impact to the story. Willa Cresky is the main character in the book. She’s a troubled teen and she seems to be having a hard time getting over the death of her father. Because of the death of her father she has debilitating headaches and she’s become very antisocial and to add on to the problems she’s already having, her and her mother has
This makes it difficult for a reader to keep track of the characters because as events unfold, the numerous characters grow older simultaneously. Though plot was non-existent,
I was pretty disappointed by this book. Hardly any action. I have read a lot of books by frank peretti and he usually like to write horror books. I guess that was what i was hoping to find in this book. I like adventure book.
