Leverage review

Leverage Book review By: Kameron Rayl   

The book Leverage is about a football team in a small town called Oregrove and the high school is called Oregrove High. In the book there was a prank with steroids that got a lot of people in trouble and the football team and it like started a fire between them all. The setting in the book is summer and in school most of the time. “ Summer still linger in the air this first week of my sophomore year and, even with the windows wide open, the classroom bakes at a snooze able eighty four degrees according to the doughnut-shaped thermometer by the light switch. Outside, you can hear the machine hum of john Deere tractor lawn mowers grooming the football fields. The sweet smells of cut grass and gasoline waft into the class, mixing happily with glory’s shampoo.”

 

                This book is good if you like sports and mysteries. This book is hard to keep up with because it gets to a lot of talking. This book gets interesting because of the pranks and drama. In this book it separates to good friends and makes them dislike each other. In this book also the fullback becomes emotionally damaged because he was pranked and gets kicked off the team and goes into depression. The coach had to kick off a lot of the players for the prank and the people that got pranked got kicked off too.

Summer Reading

First post

Characters in the Hunger Games change overtime because their feelings change for one another. The characters interact because their feelings grow for one another and start to make a friendship. The theme for the Hunger Games could be a poor district that has to scavenge for food just to survive a day. Another theme could be the capitol which is where the higher class lives and they get everything they want. The twelve districts select one person from each district to compete so I guess the battle between the districts could be the theme.

http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/03/the_unseen_message_of_the_hunger_games.html  When I read this article I thought the author was talking about a government where the people don’t want to be ruled and have this fight to the death for the higher class. The video talks about the preview of the hunger games the very first book. The video also talks about the book upcoming and what is going to happen and how good it will be or exciting. Together these two pieces make the book seem very good like you have an urge to read it.
