Book review comments

Billy:
Something that you can do is identifying things that the author is trying to show, for example you said there is no racism because everyone looks the same after digging a whole. Here you can say that the author is showing that digging holes makes everyone equal, there is no discrimination in their punishment. Also, you can clarify some of the things you said, like where you said everyone likes x ray even though he is short and black, be sure to say why that would cause one of them to not like him

Vinh:
Your book review seems to be more of a summary; the point isn’t to describe what the book is about, but to show what it means, or how it was written. Be sure that you respond to the questions like this and don’t simply say what happened, if we wanted to know what happens, we would read the book. Read over your book review to make sure all the grammar makes sense.

Karisa:
I would like you to not only talk about the girl’s life but also relate this to our lives, talk about how we can learn from this fictional experience. I believe the point is to discourage teens from taking those baby steps that can eventually lead to something as serious as Crystal Meth.
