More about "No Right Turn"

My last post about No Right Turn might have come off as more of a summary but I just wanted to explain what was going on and how it was different from how I thought the book was going to conclude.

It was hard to really feel for this character and what he was going through because I have never experienced anything like that. It was interesting, however, to see how the character dealt with his grief and how he kept making up lie, after lie, after lie. I felt bad for him but at the same time I thought that he wasn’t disciplined enough. But I guess nobody else except for his friend new what he was doing and how good it felt to him and how “ok” he was with it.

My New Book

I am about to start reading “ Thirteen Reasons Why ” by Jay Asher. The story is told by a young boy named Clay Jensen and he has a crush on a girl named Hannah Baker. Clay comes home one day to find a box of tapes that Hannah left for him. Hannah is dead and the tapes contain her thirteen reasons why and Clay is about to find out that he is one of them. I had a couple books to read before I read this one so I lent it to a friend because I was telling her about it and she wanted to read it. She said that is was really depressing, but really good at the same time. I am very excited to begin reading it. PREDICTIONS When I think about it, I have a feeling that it is one of those situations where a boy likes a girl, but the girl wants nothing to do with the boy. I don’t think that Clay is going to be the main reason why Hannah is dead or anything but maybe something that Clay said or did could have just influenced Hannah’s decision to commit suicide. Another option could be that Hannah had ...

BRUNO

I have just begun reading “ The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas ” by Johne Boyne. I am enjoying it so far because right of the start you want to know why Bruno and his family left Berlin. We know that it was because his father had to go there for work, but Bruno doesn’t know exactly what it is that his father does, and neither do the readers. When they get to the new house Bruno looks out his window and sees a BIG fence with spikes on it. There are huts in the fence and a lot of little boys and old boys and they are all wearing grey and blue stripped pajamas. At the new house there are soldiers all over the place. These soldiers work for Bruno’s father. I am starting to think that Bruno’s father is Hitler. If I’m wrong, he works for Hitler and that I am very sure about. The maid, Maria, says that the soldiers work for his father and even though they don’t say it in the book, they are living outside a concentration camp (I think that’s what they are called). I also think this because they...

Living Dead Girl

I am now reading my second book called Living Dead Girl . It is written by Elizabeth Scott. I am about halfway through the book already and I don’t know what to think. It’s a little confusing because some chapters can be three words, three sentences, or three pages. There isn’t even the slightest bit of consistency and that seems to confuse slightly. At first I thought that it was jumping from chapter to chapter, with this girl in present day, and back to when she was younger and had been kidnapped. Later in the book I realized that it is written in present, and it’s about her life now, since she has been kidnapped. Some of the chapters and stories told are indescribably uncomforting. At times I almost don’t want to read it, yet I want to know what is going to happen to her next. I’m not sure how old his girl is but she can’t be older than fifteen. Her kidnapper seems to like his girls young. In my opinion, Ray, the kidnapper, is a very unstable man. He wants to take care of the girls ...
