Vietnam #5: Walking Wounded

Vietnam #5: Walking Wounded

By Chris Lynch

Have you ever wondered what the Vietnam War was like, the losses sustained in the war? After Rudi gets drafted off to fight in the Vietnam War his three best friends Ivan Morris and Beck decide to sign up and make sure Rudi won’t die and that he will be ok. After a shocking death of one in the group it will cause each member to do something such as trying to win the war all by their lonesome another to defy orders in an act of protest and the last to escort the body of their fallen friend back to America. One of those choices will leave one of our main characters without an eye. Are you interested? If so you will love Vietnam 5: Walking wounded by Chris Lynch it is full of action,adventure and friendship. This is an amazing book that will have you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole ordeal tons of shock awaits you in this book. The antagonist in the book is the vietnam war. The protagonist in the book are the four main characters in the book as in Rudi, Ivan, Morris, and Beck. This book also does not have a turning point seeing how it is one in a very large series. I recommend this book to anyone who likes war books and/or enjoys adventure suspense action and it will shock you, you will love this book. I give it a strong 4* rating. (I don’t recommend this book to younger kids there is no harsh language but some things are more mature topics)

The Great American Dust Bowl

The Great American Dust Bowl

By Don Brown

This book is important to know because of how dust bowls occurred in some states. There was no water for a long time while it happened. Read this book to find out how this all happened! I like this book because it tells about dust bowls and the dust bowl is a type of storm and I like storms and I like reading about how it happened.

Bull Run

Bull Run

By Paul Fleischman

This Novel really caught my eye because of the diversity of characters and I wasn't disappointed. You get views from either side of the battle and you get to see what it was like for those sides. Many of the characters allow you to get attached to them.

MISERY.

MISERY.

By Stephen King

Misery is about a man named Paul Sheldon who is the author of an enormously successful series of books centered on a character named Misery. He is being held captive by a woman named Annie Wilkes who claims to be his number 1 fan. She found him after he got in a car accident and has is holding him at her house. Because of the accident, Paul’s legs are shattered, which is why he has difficulty escaping. This book is a very interesting because of how information is presented to you; in the beginning, you do not know much, but everything is explained to you slowly. However, I did not really find this book scary, and since this is supposed one of Stephen King’s horror books, I found this to be strange. One interesting thing I found out about this book is that part of it is based off of a real life problem Mr King faced when his book “The Eyes of the Dragon” was rejected by his fans because it was not horror. This inspired him to write Misery. I feel that this makes the book more interesting when you know this, because you can draw parallels between the real life inspiration and the book. I would like to mention, however, that this book should be read by people from 8th grade and up, because this book has a lot of profanity. I give this book a 4.75 out of 5, because it is a great book, but it wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be.
