In conclusion, teenagers today shouldn't read this book because it has a confusing story line, poor transitions between stories, its characters are consubstantial and its portrayal of the immigrant experience being somewhat…
It had humor, real life events, sadness, and suspense. I would most definitely recommend this novel to someone because although it’s very long, you won’t want to stop reading it. This book will make you wonder, cry, even laugh. It’s a book that I think had great meaning and was put together very well. In my opinion, there is no flaws about this book except how long it is.…
Some of the evnts displayed in this book really made you embarrased to be a human. How can there be so much hate between one kind. Black, White, Asian. Dewish, Christian, arabic. We are all the same, what you do to others you do to yourself. Humans are the most advanced creatures alive yet we can act like the most primative, and brutal of all. This was the outcome of one mans insanity, one extreme occultist, oblivious to reality, and lost in his own obsession of his perfect world.…
As far as a critique for this book goes, I cannot say much that I would change. While the story was at times slow, that is to be expected with a narrative that describes real life accounts. I personally did not enjoy the book as much as I thought I would, the reason for this is because I am not a fan of the style…
I enjoyed this book thoroughly and always kept me intrigued until the end. It had small twists in it that were rather easy to interpret but it was also very interesting. I don’t particularly relate to this book, although situations that I’ve endured have changed my perspective on life, in a positive aspect, and made me unprejudiced and versatile and not so…
This book was very different than anything I have ever read. I am still deciding whether I liked it or not. It was hard for me to follow because it kept jumping back in forth in time. The first three chapters I hap kept re-reading to focus and grasp what was going on. I was extremely confused and it went from the opening scene in 1931 to Milkman being four years old in one paragraph. I do feel this is a book you need to read over and over again to fully gain an understanding of the messages and symbols the author was displaying through each character. I thought the book was interesting that although it dealt with racial issues and focused on how characters such as Guitar and Milkman had different views of status and discrimination, their was very little mention of white characters in the book. The majority if not all the characters were black decent and it was purely one sided view on how the black race dealt with racial issues in a small town at that time. I think Pilate was a crazy character and I didn't like how long it dragged out to find the true nature of why her relationship was the way it was with her brother Macon Dead Jr. I feel like the author was changing the subject and jumping around so much that you never fully get to know any one character. I didn't like how the author killed Milkman in the end, it was as if you finally made some self discovery and then he jumps to his death. The book just builds and layers and builds, and when you finally feel like you might understand where it's leading three of the main characters die within the last pages. Aside from racial views and Milkmans self discovery from his life as his fathers son, to discovering his family history and where he wants to be in the future, I didn't really connect with any other character in the book, or understand their significance in his discovering…
In my opinion, the novel was extremely entertaining and well put together, containing some hilarious moments, a few depressing moments, and several surprises. It taught me several new things about the strict, harsh, and cruel ways of the Puritan Society that I did not previously know. For example, I learned that it brought joy to the community to witness the public shaming and public executions by the guillotine, hanging, fire, and even being crushed to death. I would definitely recommend the novel to other readers because it contains an interesting storyline and plot, and the novel is slightly challenging, so it is also beneficial for the mind. I could relate several events and themes throughout the novel to events in society today. For instance, today young men and women make mistakes as they are younger, just as it’s been for centuries. These mistakes follow these young people throughout the course of their lives, causing individuals to judge them before getting to know them first. Another similarity between the novel and today’s society would be public shaming. For example, the younger generation specifically enjoys humiliating others for making mistakes by posting to social media, where the individual’s mistakes could be ridiculed…
After the first half, I jotted down some of the reasons why. Here is a list of problems I have with the book, most of which are either logical fallacies or just rhetorical stunts that annoy me.…
Another problem is that this book had poor character development. Mary is referred as a criminal and leaving her town after killing her husband .Crabbe’s mom is clueless on what is going on with his son’s life, his dad is rude and ungrateful. His family does not show much support to his son. He’s addicted to alcohol and telling young grade 9’s to drink and always constantly drinking and in need of it 24/7 is horrible. Crabbe has also left home and running away is showing bad decisions to the youth. It’s giving those ideas on what to do if they hate there family or get depressed. This book is just setting bad examples towards the youth.…

A rhetorical analysis breaks down a work of non-fiction to see how the different parts work together and what effect it has on the reader and writer. That being said every major in college uses rhetorical analysis, and every classroom learns the skills needed in rhetorical analysis. In the science departments, a rhetorical analysis may be breaking down and analyzing an experiment to see what effect it has. In math, a rhetorical analysis may be breaking down an experiment and analyzing it.…
The characters in the book were excellent. the author made them very believable and realistic. My favorite character was Lindsey, Susie’s younger sister. If one of my family members died I think I would be some what like her. I would be strong…
Another important aspect of this book is the band, Dumb. This band faces the challenge of finding a real paying gig. Also having a manager who is deaf and can barely hear the music being played doesn 't really help them achieve their goal. I think Dumb was really great throughout the novel. The reader learned many things about each member you would never have guessed. You could hear everyone’s voices and feelings very clearly even though the story was told through Piper’s point of view. For example, during the story, you get a glimpse of the pain Kallie feels, especially right before…
If you have been arrested and charged with a crime, the most important first step you can take is to speak with a criminal defense attorney. The court can appoint counsel for you if your financial situation can not afford a private criminal lawyer, or you also have the option to defend yourself in a court of law - although this is not advised.…
I liked it but I think it’s kind of hard to put it in so few words. It’s not complicated but it has so much action in…
