Reading response

This week I continued to read the Death Note series. I went from book 3 to book 2. I thought I
knew what happened in the previous books but it turns out I had no idea what happened. This book didn't hold a lot of important information about the story line but it was exciting to read. In this novel Kira tries to find out what the names and faces of the 12 FBI agents that are. They were sent in to Japan from the United States of America to investigate on the Kira case. Kira doest like that and wants to kill them. Then he meets one of the FBI agent’s fiancé and things get messed up.

When you read this book you have to read it as a mystery story not a killing story. If you think of it as a killing story, this book will not be very interesting. You have to be a smart person to really understand the story because the two main characters are very smart and with everything they do sometime it is hard to keep up with what is happening.

If you like stories that have happy endings and characters that live forever this book is definitely not for you. I am not going to say what happens but at the end of the book but it is not pretty. I don't mind that the book is like this because this book tells things like they would happen in real life and those books seem to be the most interesting to me.

Book review on Flush/reading reponse

This week I stared and finished the book Flush by Hiaasen Knopf. I would say it was more than a par of Hoot but I have never read holes. From the movie and what I have heard I think I am correct by saying this book is way more than a par of Holes. This book starts out as a save the environment story that will tell you about how un-environmental friendly we are and how we should change that. Then out of nowhere the book turns in to a sabotage story about these 2 kids trying to buts a casino owner from dumping waste in to the ocean. The 2 kids make friends with this man who lives in a trailer and make a deal with him. They say if he writes a report to the coast guard saying he witnessed the boat dumping waste in to the ocean they would give him a boat. This is one of the things they do to show the city what was going on. And the book only gets better.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fishing or the ocean because this book has constant references to them. I would also recommend this book to anyone who likes books with action and exposing the evil. This book is one of those stories just disked with child characters. There is one problem with this book; you have to keep reading until page 10. That’s when it becomes interesting. Over all I give this book 9 out of 10.

What I read this week

This week I read a graphic novel called Death Note. The story was written by Tsugumi Ohba and the art in the book is done by Takeshi Obata. This book is a mystery murder story that focuses on an old Japanese legend. A high school boy picks up a book call the death note. Later after reading what is in the book he figures out that whoever’s name he writes in the book, 50 seconds later they die of heart failure. With this power he starts to kill inmates and suspects of crimes thinking he is doing something good for the world. The Japanese government is asked the question “is it okay for someone to be killing people who do bad things”, they couldn’t give an answer so then they started the investigation that would lead to finding the killer. The boy who has the book is very smart and he joins the police force and helps them look for the killer (himself). He tricks the police force so well they end up chasing their own tail.
This book makes you want to get the next one because it pulls you so deep in to the story. This graphic novel is part 3 of 10. I know what happens at the end however, I want to know what happens in the middle of the story. This book is rated 13+ because it has a lot to do with death and killing.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery stories or graphic novels that take a long time to read because one of these books takes 2 times longer to read than a Naruto book

Book Review on The Giver

Have you ever thought what it would feel like to have no emotions and be color blind? In the book The Giver by Lois Lowry there is a town where everything functions perfectly. Every citizen has no emotion and is color bind because the town council thought it would be better for their town if the people didn’t have those things. There is only one person in the town that has the ability to feel emotions and see colors. That one person was getting old so they found someone to replace him. The old person gave the new person memories about the emotions and colors. The new person learns secrets about his town and thinks he can change something.
I just finished this book and I loved it. It had an interesting story line with interesting characters. It was a odd story but that adds on to making you want to read more. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanders what our world would be like if we didn’t have problems but not as many things that made us unique as individuals. This book is not for people younger than 10 because at some times this book can get a little weird. If you get board of books that go on for a long time don’t read this book you have to have patience to continue reading to the good parts you will love it. The end of this book is satisfying and makes you want to read the other 2 books by the author that tie in with this book. I have just finished this book and I am ready to read Gathering Blue, I think it is about the same town.

What I read to day.

On Tuesday I read a book that my Dad got from the library, the book is called Pride of Baghdad. This book is a graphic novel written by Brian K. Vaughan. Niko Renrichon did the art for this book. This book shows a different side of the bombings in Baghdad not from the human point of view. The story takes place in the zoo of the city. There are a group of lions that live there. There is one adult male lion and a male cub with 2 female lions. One is the mother of the cub and the other is old and cranky. When there cage is hit by a bomb it makes a hole and they start to walk away. The old cranky lion wants to stay in the cage and refuses to go with them. The cub and 2 other lions start to exit the zoo. They see a stampede of animals and a giraffe standing next to them gets its head blown off by a bomb. The bomb makes the lions go unconscious and an army of evil monkeys steal the cub. When the lions wake up they notice their cub isn’t there and suddenly see the monkey tracks. They follow the tracks and end up at the monkey cage. After an exciting fight and return of the old lion, they continue (with the cub) to exit the zoo. When they get outside they wander in a forest, meet a mad turtle, and almost get run by tanks. I not giving away the rest of the story but I recommend it.
When you read stories about Baghdad you see a different point of view but I think there will never be another story quite as good as this book. It shows you a very interesting point of view. I would recommend this book to mature people; for others the themes may be unsuitable. This is no Lion King 2.

What I Read This Week

This week I started to read the book The Giver by Lois Lowry. The way this author writes this book s very strange. The town that the author makes the people live in is a perfect society that never encounters problems. The town doesn’t have seasons, years, and stores; in short it has about 22% of what we have here. They never need to make anything because weekly a plane fly’s in and drops supplies. Every job in the town is only there to make sure the town stays in shape and encounters no problems. Every citizen is assigned a job when they turn 12 except in that town they call a 12 year old a 12. The main character is assigned a very unusual job where he would experience thing that some people would never hear about. He would lie on a bead and the person who had the job before him would put his hands on his back and he would experience whatever the person wanted him to. Were I am at he experienced sledding, sun light, and sunburn. His job is collecting memories. With the help of the previous person who had the job he will experience any event that has a special feeling. The events that he will experience will not always be positive so he may feel pain. Eventually he will have to fully be in charge of his job without the help of the person who had the job before him.
I will keep you informed on what is happening in my story.
