The Angel of Death, written by Alane Ferguson, is a forensic mystery where the main character’s-Cameryn’s-former teacher was suspiciously killed in his home. Cameryn must find and solve the clues that trace back to the murderer of Brad Oakes. The Angel of Death has its ups and many downs, but there were still some good things, bad things, there some relatable parts, and I will give recommendations on if others should read this book. There were some positive things throughout the story. One example, is the author did a decent job of creating suspense. This means the author kept building on the main conflict that kept the reader interested in the story. For instance, in the story, Kyle locked Cameryn in his chicken coop and threatened to hurt her. However, his tactics kept in question …show more content…
One connection that I made during the story was that you have to be careful who you trust. In the story, Cameryn trusted Kyle, who ended up stabbing her in the back when it was all said and done. In life, if you are naive, then people could take advantage of you. They could steal items that belong to you and even take away your money. Another connection that I made was to never lose sight of your true friendships. In the book, Kyle caused Cameryn to push Lyric away, but in the end Lyric saved Cameryn from Kyle’s evil grasp. In the real world, your true friends can help you get through perilous times, but life can be made difficult without them. A final connection that I made was the murder case in the story is similar to the world we live in today. The story presented a case where it was extremely challenging to find the killer. In our world, cases like this appear all over the world, and cause trouble in the environment they happen in. To conclude, this story is a very realistic piece that readers can relate
In the end they become lifelong friends. The first theme in this book is kindness. Caitlin showed Martin a lot of kindness by being generous and giving a lot of her money and time toward caring for Martin even though he was halfway across the world. The other theme in this book is to determination. Just like the title: I Will Always Write Back.
Analyzing Character Development: Dana Octavia Butler’s novel, Kindred, provides a unique look into slavery in the antebellum South through the eyes of Edana Franklin, a black woman living in the late 20th century, who is suddenly sent through time to the early 19th century where she is suddenly faced with the task of protecting her ancestor, Rufus, from many dangers in order to ensure her existence in the present. Dana begins her adventure with no knowledge of how or why she has been given this responsibility and, as a result, must adapt to her new and unfamiliar surroundings. As the novel progresses, the reader sees Dana’s internal battle with herself as she decides whether or not Rufus is worth saving, or if she should let Rufus die
History has the unique ability to be presented through the different viewpoints of people with different backgrounds and different levels of education. History also has the ability to be taught using different presentational techniques in order to present the historical information. The techniques that historians and teachers can use include reading historical fiction novels, watching film documentaries, and using a history textbook. Each teaching technique used to present the historical information contains advantages and disadvantages which may question a techniques validity and accuracy. Michael Shaara’s historical fiction novel The Killer Angels and the Ken Burns’ film documentary “The Civil War” were both effective in presenting the history
Living creatures are not immortal, the fact that they are living automatically has death attached to their existence. Death looms over the human population taking many lives every day, not once failing. During the Holocaust, it came in the form of the Nazis, who used concentration camps as their factories of death. By the end of the Holocaust, 11 million were left dead by the Nazis, 6 million of them being Jewish. In the novel Night, Elie Wiesel presents an insider view of the horrific event and how death took form within it.
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
The book is made of conflict, courage, & confusion about the role of a soldier in the War. The story is told from Richie Perry’s point of view & doesn’t tells the readers about his terror, the bombings & firefights, the killings of his companions, which are the fallen angels recognized in the title of the book. There is racism, but it’s overshadowed by the confusion
Poe’s Death The circumstances surrounding the death of the famous author Edgar Allan Poe have been debated by historians, professors and literature fans for years. Although there are limited amounts of facts and evidence from the days before his death, various theories have been presented and argued about how Poe died. Although one theory suggests that Poe died from rabies, the more compelling and believable theory is he died from alcoholism.
Human relationship's are formed through similarities in social and cultural influences. Often times you can recognize similarities between people in the real world that are living through the same situations in their life. Life is time to gain something from this world and to leave something even greater behind. From reading dystopian styled pieces of literature I have found connections between the distinct characters that are involved with the protagonist of each book. These relationships are key to how the protagonist of each story progresses throughout the books plot.
The book I have chosen to review is Boy 21, a fictional read that is written by Matthew Quick. Quick is a New York Times best-selling author debuting in novels such as The Silver Linings Playbook and Love May Fail. To best describe this book, it is a captivating read that is comforting for the mind, as it canvasses the raw and unflinching life of a high school senior who displays love for basketball and life relationships. Furthermore, set in a troubled Belmont city of Philadelphia, Quick incorporates the presence of mobs and violence which is captivating towards the reader and audience. I was intrigued about how the novel was written through Finley the main protagonist, which was Quick’s childhood perspective of life in Philadelphia and his passion towards basketball.
Reading Gilgamesh was important because it gives the reader insight and an understanding of what was important to the people who lived during the time that Gilgamesh was written. It also allows us to see how things have changed from what we are used to reading to what we could have been reading before. Repetition in a story can sometimes seem a little annoying to the reader. However, I think it could be a very important characteristic when reading certain material.
Character Relationships: While reading What To Say Next, the reader can tell, Kit and David are the main characters and have a special relationship. If Kit had not sat by David at it would be really hard for Kit to get over her dad 's death. Also, if Kit had not sat by David he would not have any friends and be very lonely. This relationship is important because the story would not be good without them.
The literary analysis goes to show how Many tries to get through the hard times. Nicola Yoon devops a character relationship between Maddy and this boy Olly.
