Donovan's Ungifted

Decent Essays
Ungifted
When I read the book ‘Ungifted’ it felt like I was walking through a wonderland. I love the book ‘Ungifted’ because there was a lot of action, it let us experience the characters more and I could connect to Donovan and the book too.
There was a lot action throughout the whole book. In one of the chapters Donovan broke the Atlas Statue with a twig, it was an old statue that was on a hill and the bolts kind of eroded and when Donovan hit it the globe started rolling then hit the gym floor breaking it. Then Noah jumped off a stage in the middle of a dance to do WWE style (who would do that).
It let me experience the characters more.

    The Cather in the Rye really sucked me in and got me thinking about a lot. The book is about teenager Holden Caulfield and his experiences growing up and maturing in New York before he decides to go home.

In the second chapter of the book while Holden is talking to his history teacher Mr. Spencer about how life is just a game, Holden states “Game, my ass.…

    In Just Mercy, Bryan Stevenson depicted clearly the unfair ways the poor and the incarnated were treated in the criminal justice system. Stevenson educated his readers about the death penalty, women’s prison, and youth being tried as adult in the criminal system without being to overwhelm and factual. Another way Stevenson brought his novel to life is through his characters. Bryan Stevenson makes you feel every emotion his character went through; it was as if we went through every tribulation the characters had to endure. Stevenson also made his audience experience every joy and heartbreak that he went through as their defendant’s lawyer.…

    The actors all looked so happy and the fact that it was live was better. Another favorite part of mine was the dance competition. Everyone dancing and having a good time with each other rather than caring about the contest just made it a delightful scene to watch. There was so much energy and I could tell all the actors loved singing and dancing. However, when Danny starts to dance with Cha Cha although, it was not Sandy I still enjoyed their finale.…

    I think the book, “Diary of a Wimpy Kid Double down”, written by Jeff Kinney, was an awesome book. The book is about a young kid, like me, who is just learning his common sense and his moral ethics. The book was very entertaining to read as it gives the perspective of a young boy, Greg Heffley, of his not-so-ordinary life. People may think he’s ordinary, but when you get into his everyday life, it gets weird. He has an older brother, which I can relate to, and he’s always trying to get out of work, no matter what.…
