The Hate U Give

The Hate U Give

By Angie Thomas

Josiah McGhee Laura Cook Writing 1-5 11, May 2022 The praise I give The hate u give is a book written by Angie Thomas. The genre of this book is realistic fiction. The main characters are Starr and Khalil. During this book Starr has to face the grand jury against a police officer, and the decision of the jury shocks everyone. Some topics here are racial discrimination and racism and general. A quote from this book is “ what’s the point of having a voice if you’re gonna be silent when you shouldn’t have” This shows how Starr was really broken by this case and had no words. I would give this book a 5/5 because I loved every second I was reading it.

The Call of the Wild

The Call of the Wild

By Jack London

I think this is the first classic book that I actually ENJOYED. I read the "kids" version for a book report in 3rd grade and really enjoyed it. The "full" version is even better. I liked how Jack London showed what BUCK thought at the moment since many other books hide the feelings of a dog. Overall, very fun to read. I'd recommend for Grades 5+

Unwind (Unwind Dystology)

Unwind (Unwind Dystology)

By Neal Shusterman

In a society where unwanted teens are salvaged for their body parts, three runaways fight the system that would "unwind" them Connor's parents want to be rid of him because he's a troublemaker. Risa has no parents and is being unwound to cut orphanage costs. Lev's unwinding has been planned since his birth, as part of his family's strict religion. Brought together by chance, and kept together by desperation, these three unlikely companions make a harrowing cross-country journey, knowing their lives hang in the balance. If they can survive until their eighteenth birthday, they can't be harmed -- but when every piece of them, from their hands to their hearts, are wanted by a world gone mad, eighteen seems far, far away. In Unwind, Boston Globe/Horn Book Award winner Neal Shusterman challenges readers' ideas about life -- not just where life begins, and where it ends, but what it truly means to be alive.

I LOVE THIS SERIES!! I read Unwind a few years ago and didn't even know that it was a series until i stumbled along this book, i loved it. It was almost better than the second book which is becoming really rare in authors now. Connor and Risa are back in this book along with new kids, and clappers. I would highly highly recommend this book and series to kids who don't get easily disturbed or have bad nightmares.

UnSouled (Unwind Dystology)

UnSouled (Unwind Dystology)

By Neal Shusterman

This was a book that, instead of getting really exciting in the end, had twists. There was a new character, Una, who was introduced in this book. So, this book was great, but more twisty rather than exciting.

SOME SPOILERS AHEAD!!! Great, satisfying conclusion to a great series! Starkey's causing trouble and unknowingly making it harder to stop unwinding, while we learn about the organ printer, a device created so that unwinding could stop. There's also Nelson, dead set on getting some of the main characters unwound for revenge. The ending really couldn't be more happy. This was a great book!
