The Reason Gears Of War: Aspho Fields
The reason Gears of War: Aspho Fields is my favorite is that I had an interest in the games and the book is quite a bit better than the games. It sucks you in right away and tells you the story before everything starts to hit the fan. The reason The Crucible is my least favorite was because it was a slow start and then became interesting, but that took awhile. It wasn’t that high up on the list because the characters had a bit of a unrealistic feel to them.
World War Z was the hardest book because it was a bit hard to follow and keep track of everything and know what’s going on. The Books bounces around quite a bit and can confuse you. This book forces you to pay attention at all times. The book has some interesting details and used real places

    " What is Pearl Harbor?"(4). The book I read was Farewell to Manzanar by Jeanne Wakatsuki. This is what started World War II. During these times Japanese people were treated like animals. They were forced to live in internment camps throughout Executive Order 9066. Executive Order 9066 was approved by Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt, this order ordered the military to place Japanese or Japanese Americans into these internment camps. This is where this story takes place, in an internment camp in Manzanar were Jeanne Wakatsuki and her family spend there time during these harsh times. Well developed characters, excellent theme, but a lacking a more entertaining plot makes Jeanne Wakatsuki's Farewell to Manzanar an exceptional book.…

    Fever 1789 Book Summary

    I have recently finished the book "Fever 1789" by Laurie Halse Anderson. It was filled with a roller coaster of emotion leaving the reader on the edge before every chapter. The description in the book fills my mind of how it was back in the 1700's. This book demostrats a good understanding of the environment and tone in the book. At the end of the book it shows real life sections of how Anderson used history into a fictional story. The other book i'm reading is "Night" by Ellie Wiesel. It shows a similiar dark approach to the book's setting. The book is based off Ellie's life in a concentration camp during the Nazi regime. Ellie was only just a young boy and he had to endure painful suffering. Watching the people die around you and seeing your…

    In the novel All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque describes World War I through the eyes of a soldier, Paul. It goes into details about combat, food shortage, going on leave, and the life at home. While reading this book, I couldn't help but notice that I would get nervous in some chapters about what would happen next. The author goes into so much detail, giving the reader that first person feeling while he/she is reading the book. Remarque also describes the horrific and unthinkable events of World War I by going deeper than the average "war novel," allowing the reader to engage more. The author reveals that World War I is different than the other wars before it because it details the artillery and the civilians' lives. It also reveals that World War I is a trench and chemical warfare which is new.…

    I had mixed feeling about the novel Fahrenheit 451. I really enjoyed how imaginative Bradbury was when creating the fictional world for his characters. He did his best converting the original short story into a novel, but some parts could drag and some parts I struggled through. I think this is a good book for any science fiction fan to have in their library. It was difficult for me to finish, but it contains a well-developed plot, characters, and fictional…

    Elie Wiesel's Night is a terrifying account of the Nazi death camp horrors that turned between 11 to 17 million people into agonized witnesses to the deaths of their families and friends. I chose this book to read because I had heard from numerous people that it was "the best book about the Holocaust I could ever read" . I read it and found out that it went into much more detail than some of the other Holocaust books I had read. This book was extremely powerful as it awakened me to the terror that many people went through during the Holocaust at the concentration camps. I found the book to be incredibly addicting and easy to read.…

    The Looking Glass Wars is a great book and I think anyone should read it. It's full of an abundance of twists. There is a bunch of baffling stuff that you wouldn't expect to happen, but when it does, it keeps you interested and drawn to the story. If you like action and adventure style books then I would recommend this book to you. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, just when you think you know what's going to happen, it changes and does something else. It's confusing but it makes sense at the same…

    The latter two books are successful in conveying their anti-war themes. The colorful autobiography of Wiesel and the satirical humor in Catch-22 more effectively portray the obscenities of war than Vonnegut 's Slaughterhouse-Five.…

    When I was looking for a book to read, this was one of the last ones on my list. I wanted to read about World War II – a war that seemed more interesting. However, this book and I crossed paths when all the books I wanted to read were out of stock at the bookstore. I thought I’d take a chance, and I’m glad I did. I fell into a book-induced stupor when I began reading it. After awhile I realized an hour and half had gone by and I was halfway through the book. I was engrossed by the…

    Erich Remarque wrote the book to describe her version of the war, and a few of its effects like hardship with understanding how home can throw all the leftovers away rather than save it or give it away. In the war, soldiers had starved to death. Rather than being killed by bloodshed bullets. Keep in mind that the war was several years long, so throughout this period there was a high risk for starvation. Because of the…

    “This book…will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war” (Remarque Preface). All Quiet on the Western Front, written by Erich Maria Remarque, tells a story of a young soldier, as he and his friends fight for the German army during World War I. The novel is narrated from the point of view of Paul Bäumer. He is nineteen years old and, like many of his classmates, he joins the German army. The story follows as they fight through the horrid experiences of trench warfare. Unlike many other war novels, All Quiet on the Western Front does not attempt to romanticize war. All Quiet on the Western Front does a superb job of describing war as brutal and destructive, rather than romanticizing it because it gives the reader a clear understanding of the emotional and mental state of the soldiers; and describes how the different setting where war is always present; and each character contributes to the horrid truths of the war.…

    World War Z

    • 1217 Words
    • 5 Pages

    In 2006, a great piece of literature was written, its name: World War Z by Max Brooks. This book documents the survivors of the World War Z apocalypse; while of course this book is fictional it draws you in and will at times make you feel like you are reading a piece of non-fictional literature. This is what fascinated me most by it. Not only did the book draw you in with its non-fictional fiction style, its theme draws on a central problem on us as humans today. We are ignorant, in whole or in part, regardless if there are many or few. It’s sad that we are that way today, from all the wars to all the bomb threats that are thrown around annually by almost anybody and everybody because its “fear” that runs us as a society today. World War Z by Max Brooks brilliantly shows this theme and expands on it to reach deep inside the human psyche to reveal our dark, segregated minds.…

    Crucible Essay

    The Crucible was a very emotional book in terms of plot. The plot was about a girl named Abigail who accuses many people of witchcraft. She also accuses Elizabeth Proctor, wife of John Proctor. Abigail uses her power of the court to get to her obsession, John Proctor, by trying to eliminate Elizabeth. She is unsuccessful in getting this done and ends up executing over twelve people including John Proctor. It is great to see all the different kinds of characterization and themes. This story really gets you thinking about many things, such as, lying and telling the truth, or most importantly, standing up for your beliefs even if you have to die for them. It also shows how envy, greed, hate, and jealousy can impact so many lives.…
