I am talking about The Book Thief. We read the book in lit class. It is about a girl in Nazi Germany in 1942. She is not Jewish but dose a lot of things that will get her killed. I liked the book, but I think I would have liked it better if we didn’t read it in class. So I could go at my own pace and not have to read it twice. That is one thing that I would have to read twice to prepare for the test. So that took some of the fun of reading the book out. One on the reasons why I liked it was that it kept you interested the entire time. If it got boring, it would only be for a chapter or two. When we did it for lit class, it was much easier to prepare for the discussion then TKAM. In TKAM there were only so many points you could bring up, because it was not nearly as action filled as The Book Thief. So I found it easier to prepare for the discussion because so much more would happen in the chapter then in To Kill a Mockingbird.
Michael,
ReplyDeleteI agree about reading it not in class, because it's a book that I would want to read at my own pace, and then reading it twice for the test takes away the fun of reading it.
Good BloG!
