Hello Diana,

I just finished reading Wonder and it is a really well structured book. I liked the way it kept changing perspectives of the different people in his life. This book made me feel sympathy for August on many occasions because of how rude and mean they were to him. Jack was his only friend and when August overheard Jack say that he was only hanging out with him because the principal told him to. This made me really sad. It seems like the books that I read are either sad or action packed, but that’s good because I really like those kind of books.

My favorite character throughout the book was Summer. She was so kind to August just because she wanted to. She is a really likable person, and it seemed like they needed each other, so when they became friends I was happy. Julian, on the other hand, is probably the rudest character I’ve ever read about in a book. He wanted to be popular, so he embarrassed a kid who was already insecure and different.

Well, I’m finished with all three of my books, so I can’t wait to hear back from you. I’d like to know about your books and what you thought of them.

Thanks,

Noah Trento

Oh my gosh, this book was so depressing! I couldn’t stop reading it, and literally brought it everywhere. I managed to read it in three days and was so happy for him except it was kind of gross when it described it. I liked the ending of butter, it was a happy ending and it made me feel good for butter that people actually liked him even after he didn’t kill himself. I kept thinking that you don’t have to be skinny to be liked even though I didn’t think they actually liked him.

Anna was a big Character in the book because Butter formed his life around to impress and hang out with her. It was sad when he had told Anna that he was the online boyfriend and when said she hated him. That broke me and I had to stop reading for a second. This book was my 2nd favorite book on the other hand. It made me think and think of ways that could help Butter.

I wondered why they didn’t have butter’s name until the very last page but now i think it was a good idea. Once i finished this book the only thing that was running through my mind was that one simple decision can change you’re life so dramatically.

Noah: Finished Ready Player One

I just finished reading Ready Player One and it was SOOO good. This book really made me think about all the possible things that could happen, and made me stressed for the characters when there was something happening. I couldn’t believe the end of the book! I didn’t want it to end, and at the end when they actually described the characters and i couldn’t believe how different they were then in the oasis.

Just like in the middle of the book how Art3mis was my favorite, she still was all the way through the book. It was so exciting to see her, Sorrento, and Parzival face off in the end to see who could get to the crystal key first.

I really liked it, but it was a atheistic book. It only mentioned it in the begining, and i forgot it through the book. Overall this is by far the best book i have ever read and i recommend it to really anyone. I hope you have read it a little bit more so we can talk about it.
