Top 5 Books
Fight Club 
This book is about a man struggling with everyday life, stuggling about what to do with himself and how to live. To get him through this he invents a split personatily that is more bold and can do all the things he can. This leads to forming together a group of men who have anti-societial views and spend time causing havoc in he city such as destroying art and blowing up bulidings. The narrator really doesnt want to be apart of these activites and has conflict with his other side. I liked this book becasue it was fast-paced and had a very exiting story. I like how it made you think about how some stressed out and confused people and get in life. I love how you were getting two main characters perspectives from one book alone.

Of Mice and Men
This book is about two men trying to fulfill there dreams of one day owning there own farm. The two characters are Lenny and George, Lenny is large man but he has a mental disabilty. Lenny is very kind and caring but the has a tendency to squeze things the likes too hard and harm them. George one the other hand is pretty intelengent and is always the one controling the actions Lenny. The reason I like this book so much is because it is very simple but has many deeper meanings such a friendship, and understanding. I love how they contrasted the characters one is large and less smart, the other is small but has the intelengence. The books ending was very sad but I felt that the way it ended made you gain a deeper connection with the charceters by feeling sad for them, also this helps you understand how much Geroge cares for Lenny.
The Catcher and the Rye
This book is about a very stubbon, and some what of a rebel going through life at school and after he leaves school. The reason i like this book was at times Holden seemed relatiable because sometimes I go through stress because of school or life. Also the feeling of giving up and doing what ever you want in times of trouble sometimes I feel that everyone at times go through these times of fustration with life. This book seemed to show the changes people go through as a teen you start off one way and for certin diffrent reason you may endup changing in some ways.
Harry Potter
This is a book about a young wizard whos parents got killed when he was young, this is the first book in the series it goes through this first year of wizard school and all the adventures, and new expirences harry and his friends go through. This book has a speical place in my memory becusae it was the first long novel that I have ever read and I loved it. Im not really a big Harry Potter fan but I love this book because it show magical powers which is always intresting. These kids also learned alot about good over evil, friendship, and how to protect others this book helped me in some ways by teaching me moral lessons. The best thing about the book though is the story it was an amazing adventure to read it went through a whole year of adventures and action.
