  • Analysis Of The Midnighters The Secret Hour By Scott Westerfeld

    213 Words  | 1 Pages

    The fictional book “The Midnighters: The Secret Hour by Scott Westerfeld” was interesting in its style and storyline. The author describes the setting with vivid details making it feel as if one could feel the same as the protagonists’. For example, the protagonist, Jessica Day, had just entered the secret hour where everything had froze into place, including the raindrops whereas the author described them as “millions of diamonds [filling] the air” (Westerfeld 24). The plot was interesting as strange beings would appear during this secret hour and it was the job of the Midnighters, which were particular people who managed to go into the secret hour, to fight them off.

  • Book Review Of Midnight Rising Tony Horwitz

    910 Words  | 4 Pages

    The book, Midnight Rising by Tony Horwitz, was about John Brown and the upcoming events that led him to the raid of Harpers Ferry. John Brown was an American who strongly believed in the abolishment of slavery in the United States. The author’s purpose of this book was to go into depth about John Brown and what he did that contributed to spark the Civil War. When Tony Horwitz wrote about the loss of Brown’s children and it made him depressed, I liked that Horwitz mentions earlier losses and his emotions that later contributed to the loss of his children that resulted him to a highly commitment of slavery abolishment.
