The Books of My Life (Continued)



Book That Made Me Laugh. Green Eggs And Ham is a book that has made me laugh. My mother would read this book to me as well when I was young. The rhymes in this book would make me smile as they are very clever. I still use some of the lines in this book to be funny here and there. Thinking about this book still makes me chuckle to this day because the rhymes are funny. This is a classic funny book as are many other Dr. Seuss books are.






Book I Recommend To Friends. I would recommend Perks of Being a Wallflower. I would recommend this book to them as you can relate to the book as it is about high school. This is also a read on the summer reading list so I would personally recommend everyone to read this for one of their choices. This book was also made into a movie so it would be cool to watch it after you read the book. Perks is not a long book either which is good for my friends as they are not much of readers.












Favorite Book That Went To Screen. World War Z is my favorite book that went to screen as it is a very action filled book. I enjoy watching movies about zombies already, so having a book about zombies that is also a movie is awesome. The book was different from the movie in many ways which I like because it is like you are getting two different stories. I enjoyed the movie very much because with the book you have to imagine the action, but in the movie you get to actually see some of the action on screen.

The Books Of My Life (Continued)

Historical Memoir I Admire. Unbroken is my favorite historical memoir. Louie Zamperini is a very inspirational character. He goes from being a  child who likes to steal, destroy, and just wreak havoc. He goes into the war and this is where he exhibits heroism, and survival. His plane is taken down, and he floats at sea for 46 days which I find to be incredible. He is then taken by the Japanese and put into camps where he is tortured by the officers. He survives all of this and still lives to this day. That is why Louie is an inspiration of mine because he never quit and he kept going when the tough got tougher.





 Favorite Summer Reading Book. The White Tiger was the best book that I read for summer reading. This was required to read before high school started. Before this book I did not enjoy reading at all, but after reading this book I started to like it a little more. It was a very inspiration book as Balram worked his hardest to achieve his goals, and his friend dies which is a very sad part of the book. I enjoyed learning about Indian culture as well as the book touches on religion and such.

The Books of My Life




Favorite Childhood Book. This is my favorite childhood book because my mother would read this to me almost every night before I went to bed. This story was like a nursery rhyme to be I would fall asleep during it. My favorite part of the book was that Max would wear a cape. As i got older I would help my mother read this to me at night. I still own this book, and always will as it brings good memories to me. 
Favorite Book Read For School. My favorite book that I have read for school. I had to read this book for my independent reading book for freshman year. This is a story about a "slum-dog" who gets onto a game show. He wins this game how for a million rupees, but is accused of cheating. He has to prove to the authorities how he knew these answers to the questions, they are all events in his life. I have read multiple books since freshmen year, but this book remains my favorite.
