Stevenson's Experiences In All Throughout Just Mercy By Bryan Stevenson
There are so many different kinds of books with different themes, genres, and stories to tell that trying to find one that can interest a lot of people at once is almost impossible. A good author is able to take a chunk of people with different likes, dislikes, backgrounds, and political views and make them unite together to believe what the author is trying to say. Bryan Stevenson is a good author. Stevenson wrote about his experiences as a lawyer who is primarily faced with criminals looking to appeal their sentence to shorter ones or to prove their innocence in his book called Just Mercy. Just Mercy is composed of different people’s experiences as convicted felons, many on death row, and Stevenson introduces problems that the United States
Copper Sun Character Analysis
Copper Sun was very well thought out and detailed. Although it is not a book i would pick out for myself i did enjoy the read. I liked how Sharon made a connection with the reader.

Book Review Of God's Chinese Son By Jonathan Spence
I also think this book would not be suited for someone that hasn’t read a lot of historical books mainly since as a reader you have to the information sorted in your head as you read. Spence was also coming from a Western perspective and while I think he was able to articulate his main points and the information without sounding too biased in his writing there will always be in some form. I would recommend this book if someone would like to further their knowledge of the Chinese Taiping Rebellion and has an existing knowledge of Chinese

Compare And Contrast Fortune Cookie And Raymond's Run

They don't understand that in life, they have to appreciate others point of view.

Monkey Bridge Character Analysis
The experiences related and recorded in the novels The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan, Monkey Bridge by Lan Cao, and Obasan by Joy Kogawa give great insight to the internal and external struggles East-Asian immigrants face in the Western World, specifically Chinese-Americans, Vietnamese-Americans, and Japanese-Canadians. Although the situations have certainly improved since the mid twentieth century, many of the issues and struggles the characters in the novels face are still real and ever-expanding for over five percent of the U.S. population.

Our Guerrillas, Our Sidewalks Essay
The book “Our Guerrillas, Our Sidewalks” by Herbert Braun was a really eye opening book in many ways. This book shows some great examples in how your life can change in minutes, and to never take anything for granted. Jake was a really good man, and employed hundreds of people.

Sui Sin Far Analysis
Sui Sin Far’s work I found most appealing because of her parents background and how being mixed effected her and her siblings up bringing.
