THE LAST POST

Since i forgot to post last week i have allot of hours. I finished the book the Hunger Games which in my opinion  was one  one of the best books i have ever read. I was about a girl and how she survived the Hunger Games. i am looking forward the next two books in the the trilogy.

Since its been 2 weeks i have read 8 hours and finished the hunger games which was about 344 pages.

For the project i have read 2 Bill Cosby books, Time Flies and Cosbyology, A book called Justice, and a book called the things they carried, and to finish the project the Hunger Games. Over all i kind of liked the project and it got me reading again and i actually enjoyed it. I hope to continue reading and find other good books.

This week i finished the book Justice by Larry Watson. The whole book was pretty much about a families history. It went though every person and kind gave a back round of each family member. Overall I don't think it was a very good book it was kind of boring.

A good passage for this book would be Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of god.

In the book it talks allot about the choices that the family members have to make and lots of these choices would have been easier with Gods help.

This week i read 3 hours to bring my total 30 hours i also finished the book Justice which had 226 pages.

total 30 hours and 764 pages.

If i had to pick a song for the book I'm reading it would be Letters From Home by John Michael Montgomery. In the book I'm reading it talks allot about the things that the soldiers carried and one of the most important things that kept them going were the letters they received from there family and friends. In the song it does a good job of showing what those letters meant to the soldiers.

So far in the book The Things They Carried is pretty much been a bunch of stories about soldiers and there expierences. It also tells about some of there lives after they get back home from Vietnam.

Read 3.5 hours for a total of 13.5
