While reading section five‚ it occurred to me that I believe Station Eleven will always be favored by most people‚ but it will never be someone’s favorite novel. Personally‚ my three favorite books include Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom‚ The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls‚ and Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. I have just realized all the books mentioned are non-fiction texts. Anyway‚ I enjoy Albom’s memoir because I gained an abundant amount of knowledge and life lessons after reading it.

As she describes multiple things as “stupid”‚ such as describing her classmate Sylvia

highlighting crimes committed by foreign nationals in Japan appears to have further contributed to the negative stereotyping of certain nationalities living here. The magazine’s openly offensive and racist articles (including whether Korean virgins’ genitals smell of kimchi; using the word ‘nigger’ next to a photo of a black man cuddling a Japanese woman) are used to highlight that a record 48‚000 crimes were committed by foreign nationals in Japan in 2005. This is complemented by a ‘danger rating’
