will not take a class unless it is necessary, that requires an expensive book with a access code. Students are constantly confronted with extra costs and struggles because of rising cost so providing a lower cost option is important. Factor 2: Digital or hard copy of a book seems to also be a factor. Personally, it doesn’t matter to me if the book is digital or hard copy. Some students seemed to prefer a hard copy of the book because they don’t have to pull out their computers to read the…

young adult books captivated me with what, at the time, were intriguing and comprehensible plot lines. Thus began my love affair with books. Eventually, those plot lines became my adversary, when their simplicity triggered a soporific rendition of the book.

By examining the violence, depression, and anti-ethnic, it’s clear that we should ban The Mockingjay. The Mockingjay is full of violence and the gullible minds of the youth may be persuaded from the books violent content. The main character Katniss plans and succeeds in murdering the president Mr. Snow. The…

H. School District (2010) after a parent complained about the book's sexual content, violence but still an amazing story in my own opinion. This book is an epic love story between a man named Jacob Jankowski, woman named Marlena, and Marlena's husband August who is a cruel man, and a beautiful elephants named Rosie, but why would such a amazing book be banned? I ask the same question. The sexule content between Marlena, and Jacob is pretty wild. The first kiss between Marlena…

else empowers the human will quite like hope does. So with this hope in his heart, the man set out to reach for the sky. He kept the fires going, but drew them in closer to maximize the lighting he needed. He then began to stack books. One by one, he took thick books off the shelf and set them up in a square. The man then proceeded to make another square on top, with a smaller perimeter so that he would have a step. He would take stacks of more and more, carrying loads at a time to the base of…

Faber is an intelligent man, a college professor. He’s smart about hiding his books, though he likes to read in public which is a huge risk. He knows that reading books aren’t bad, that you can find pleasure, inspiration, and even knowledge within them. He’s cautious, especially since your house and belongings would be burnt down if they found books within them, and he was extremely skeptical of Montag at first, scared that Montag would out him to the firemen or use him for some other ulterior…

would love to go to the library, go to bookstores, or when I would go into a store I would always pick up a book or magazine and start reading.

This year I have only read two and a half books, usually I read five books in one year. Next year I plan to read at least five again because when I read an article…

the movie, The Book of Life we see one perspective of the day of the dead from the life of one people. And in the article, Dia de los Muertos, we see a history and reality of the day of the dead. While they both inform us of the same topic, they have similarities and differences. In both platforms of media, they describe to us a little bit of history of Dia de los Muertos. They give us a little bit of similarities in them such as the colorful scenery of the setting. But unlike The Book of Life,…

The book that I read was New Boy by Julian Houston. The book is based around the main character by the name of Rob Garrett, an african-american from the state of Virginia who is now going to a boarding school in Connecticut. He wants to fight the problems of racism in this new community he is moving to. Some characterization that I noticed throughout my book was that Rob is family oriented, friendly and helpful. With these factors in Rob’s life it makes up the way he acts around other people and…
