Response to Killing Us Softly

I'd say I agree with what she was saying. There's not much to disagree with.

The only ads that affect me are ones for video games, and that's because they are the only thing advertised that I'm interested in. Nearly everything else is just a bunch of junk that I don't need or want.

Feed

Feed takes place many years in the future where everyone has some kind of computer in their head. They can look up anything they want, whenever they want. It also seems to be used to advertise many things.

In the beginning of the book, Titus and his friends go to the moon to hang out. They meet a girl who Titus really likes. After a while, someone hacks into their feeds and they are sent to the hospital, where their feeds have been turned off. This is the first time that Titus has had to think for himself without the feed telling him what to do.

The story line of this book is pretty good, but the lingo just makes it nearly impossible to read. The author tried to create slang for this time period, but it's too hard to understand.

Meh

That's about all I can say about Persepolis. It wasn't nearly as bad as I first thought it would be, but there was nothing amazing about it. Being a graphic novel made it pretty interesting, but that was only because it made it easier to read.

Persepolis

So far, I don't really like this book. It seems to be mostly about politics and religion. Either of which, when talked about, just kind of annoy me, and this has both.

However, I do like how easy it is to read this book. There are significantly fewer words on each page than a normal book, which means I can read it much faster.

Holden's drink with Carl Luce

The biggest part in this scene is when Luce tells Holden that he should see a psycoanalyst. I definitely agree with that. Holden is so messed up, and that could really help him out.

As for plot movement, I have yet to see any plot at all in this book, so there isn't much to say for the "plot" in this scene.

This scene probably helped with character development a lot. If Holden decides to go see the psycoanalyst it could really help him.

The motif in this scene is mainly sex. Holden keeps asking Luce about his sex life, and Luce keeps telling Holden to grow up.

The only question I'm left with after this scene is whether or not Holden is going to actually see the psycoanalyst. I doubt he will because that would make too much sense, but he still should.

SO AFTER "READING" OVER HALF THE BOOK THIS WEEKEND, I'VE GROWN TO DISLIKE THIS BOOK MORE AND MORE. NOTHING IS HAPPENING. HOLDEN JUST KEEPS GOING AROUND DOING RANDOM THINGS LIKE GETTING DRUNK AND BEAT UP. I REALLY DON'T SEE WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT THIS BOOK. IT'S INCREADIBLY BORING. THERE'S NOTHING INTERESTING ABOUT LISTENING TO SOME KID RAMBLING ON ABOUT A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT.

NO I'M NOT YELLING AT YOU, I JUST LIKE THE CAPSLOCK BUTTON.






lol

So far, Catcher in the Rye is just realy weird. While reading, I'm constantly thinking, "What the hell is this kid doing?" At one point he starts tap dancing while talking to his friend in the bathroom... wtf?

I'm an uber gamer and more of a nerd than you are. I love computers and video games. Next year I will be going to UW - Eau Claire and studying computer science.

I am the self-proclaimed president of the Mathletes. I've been a member since it started my sophomore year, and i've been the highest scorer on the team at most of the mathmeets.

I am also the president of Bike Club. I bike to school every day that it isn't raining or snowing. Yes, I do have my driver's license, but I don't like driving.

My favorite book(s) would probably be the Harry Potter series. They are the only books I've ever actually read.

That's about it, there isn't much else to say.
