If a book is really good I can read for hours and get lost in the story. I like Nicholas Spark’s books and I am in the process of reading…

    In the letter "Ban Those Books!" the author takes a strong stance on the censorship of "evil- minded books" from schools. The emotional investment fueling the author's argument is made apparent by the abundance of illogical and overgeneralized statements used in just about every sentence. The distorted claims made by the author raise doubt in any reasonable and objective audience and, therefore, does not convince them of the authors message. The writer uses several tactics to try to sway the…

When it comes to what I struggle with, I really don’t read often when I should. Also, I tend to wander off in the middle of book, which makes me go back and reread the…
