Week 5

First I would like to start out by saying that this reading assignment is not like most. This assignment is very fun and relaxed. The last book I read for school, or was supposed to read, was A Tale of Two Cities. I refused to read any books throughout high school that a teacher passed out, not because it was boring, but because the teacher would rip the story apart word by word. It pained me to read something and then hate it just because every time I saw it after that class I would think of what the symbolism meant or the satire in it. This reading assignment I am actually enjoying. I can relate to the character because she is in high school and doesn’t fit in, like I didn’t (and still don’t, but never will). This is a novel rather than classic literature too. I would rather read a newer book than something from the 1900s. As I wrote in my first blog, I like to read mystery books; which this one is, and I like to read something interesting. I do understand that interesting is different to each person, but to me, interesting is the unknown and the known clashing. What we know is that Micah is a liar, but we do not know what she is lying about. We know that Zach is dead, but who killed him and how he died is a mystery. I cannot wait until we find everything out, but I want it to keep my turning the page to the very end.
