Dear Mrs, Zrihen,
This week i was reading the book "The Last Song" By Nicolas Sparks, "Dad, is the police going to have to bring her back home again?" -Jonah on page 91, Jonah Ronnie's brother doesn't understand what is happening in her life now. Its not the law shes in trouble with, its her dad she isn't getting along with. I did not finish my book this week since my book is over 300 pages.I used many reading strategies this week some reading strategies i used this week were before i skimmed & scanned through the book to find context clues & maybe run into a few Vocabulary words. While reading i took notes on every chapter, took note son every character and there poor choices since no character in the book is perfect. There is no after since i didn't finish my book. The genre of this book is Fiction, Realistic fiction and romance. This book is realistic fiction since the story could be real or the book is based on a true story but however the characters are non fictional.
The protagonist in this book is Ronnie, Will , & Ronnies family. The antagonist in this book is Blaze for trying to get ronnie "shoplifting" and in trouble with the law. Blaze boyfriend is also an antagonist since he fought will for Ronnie but it didnt work. The setting of this book is at Wrightsville beach in the summertime, when it is hot at the beach all summer. The authors tone is mysterious and the readers mood which is me was excited and mysteriously reading carefully between the lines. The moral of this family is that family comes first, before everyone. Ronnie took a while to figure that out and it was too late. The authors point of view is second person, The pattern of organiation of this book is specail order. The authors purpose of making this book was to inform us about the moral, fmaily will stay forever that is why family comes first. I rate this book a 10 out of 10 because it takes place in my dream house and city and also since every detil in this book is so specific and i love the story! I reccomend this bok to everyone that loves to read romance & sad books !
Sincerely,
Your student,
Raheli Haliva.
