I recommend this book to mostly teenagers because the characters are created mostly for a teenage audience. Some audience members might be able to relate to one of the characters in the story, therefore the reader and character might have a connection in some way throughout the story. Although I mostly recommend this book to teenagers, I still would recommend this book to anybody who loves to read. I 'm sure some adults would enjoy the book even though it 's mostly based around teenagers. In conclusion, Before You Go is a great book with a great storyline that will keep the reader reading for hours. The storyline isn 't the only factor that created such a great book. The theme and mood also played a big role in creating the book. Even though the book is great, there was one flaw that I believe should have been fixed. Despite the book being so small the author did an amazing job writing the story. I enjoyed reading this story, but you would have to read it yourself to see if you shared the
Each event in the story was felt emotionally and gave me insight into the mind of Jeanette (The Main Character). Another reason I think this book is popular is because the story is based off of the authors childhood
I took the book to work with me and read there on my breaks. I simply could not put it down. Which is also what I saw from other people that have read this book.

Not only would I recommend it for a student’s book report, but i would recommend this book to anyone just looking for some leisurely reading.
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands at a moment of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” -MLK. A Lesson Before Dying is based in a modest community in the south. Written in 1993 but set right after WW2, A Lesson Before Dying promptly displays the prejudice and discrimination that many people faced during the 1940s. Through his writing, Ernest J. Gaines demonstrates the challenges and struggles of being successful, back in a time where many black men were brought down to the level of an animal.
Each character is able to contribute to the story in many different ways, emotionally and physically. Even the quietest characters in the book, such as Theresa Cruz build up the story. Dynamic characters like Paul’s Mom add and make the story more enjoyable. Throughout the book characters show their personality by being
Adults also like it because it will teach their children a good lesson. I think this is a great book. According to the Lorax “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s
I think it would be a great book for adults, but it’s just way over my reading level. I liked
But your enforcement of reading for starting class has allowed for me to re-kindle my interest into worlds and experiences of which existence I had forgotten. I have finish all of "Windhaven" by George R.R Martin and Lisa Tuttle, except for the epilogue. The story has wrought fright, stress, and anxiety upon my soul with each one of its three parts. Maris and her tale will not leave me for a long time. Nonetheless I can not bare
Jude is a smart, strong, and stubborn woman. She mostly operates out of an ethos of connection and caring rather than an ethos of imperialism and expansion. She is also an adventuring female which is established when she
The author Truman Capote’s tones in “In Cold Blood” are earnest and malicious. The thesis of the story is that the killers, Dick and Perry did not care about the Clutters. They did their job, and now they do not seem to be worried, Perry just a little bit AND Mr. Helm of course, but other than that Dick does not care about what they did. The imagery of the story is that it is confusing and harsh. Dick says, “Jesus, I’ve got the bastard kind.”
With many problems stemming from each other, the book keeps readers interested in how the ordeal will work out. For instance, the conflict between Reuven, his professor, and the Gordons keeps people reading eagerly and with trepidation– will Reuven follow his professor’s warning that he should “not set foot in that school,” or will Reuven continue to see the Gordons? Also, Potok makes the reader contemplate religious questions. From questions like “[d]o you believe the world was created in six days” to less obvious questions about how a person should treat others with different beliefs, The Promise causes the reader to view his or her life and beliefs through the book’s questions. Undeniably, Potok draws the reader in through the many problems and the questions that stem from
I believe you should read this book not only for its alluring plotline, but also for the intriguing quotes, the underlying theme, and the way the tone is set through the character's thoughts and emotions. To start, Matt Haig is a phenomenal author who I believe writes some of the most interesting and mindset-altering quotes. One of my favorite quotes from How
In conclusion, the author of this story has shown that the theme of this novel is to know people before you trust them, for not everyone can be
The purpose was to show that you can rise from the depths of tragedy. I would say the intended audience would be kids 13 and up. This is because of foul language. I would say that middle schools would read this book for school and for anyone who likes planes. The story is being told from a third person point of view but it focuses on different characters throughout the story.
The line conveys and proves that the story is also about a test of fate and commitment. This book, Gone Girl packs itself as a winning piece and formula, by confusing, frightening, and intriguing its readers all at once. Flynn, with this novel, has proven that her book deserves to be well-known, and an author to be crowned as the queen of Plot twists. At first, you might think that the novel is pale and boring but this book has its own sweet time to pick up the thriller type of genre that readers will not expect- It is definitely worth the wait.
