Recommended: The importance of books

Sarah,

I have written this letter and added things as I read your books. I want to tell you so many things that I probably couldn’t tell you in person because i’ll probably be in shock and unable to say anything coherent. Well maybe anything except “ I love you” or “I have lots of feels about Rowan Whitethorn”. I guess I should begin with the fact that I am beyond in love with your books. Every single one, even the ones that haven’t been published yet. I am an avid reader and have “loved” many of the books i’ve read but there is always something about your stories that have always felt immensely fascinating. The way that you construct your worlds and characters is so different from many other authors. Your characters feel so real as if I could call Aelin and ask her advice about the best ways to kick someones ass or ask Feyre about the best painting techniques. And to feel that as a reader is an amazing thing, to connect and feel emotions for characters that aren’t real. One of the most important points for me as a reader is for the world that an author has created …show more content…

Aelin being another prime example in character development has experienced hurt and loss and yes, for a short while she did try to hide from them and not deal with them, but later on in the series she became who she really needed to be. She learned from her mistakes, she took her pain and loss and transformed them into vengeance and baddassery. My favorite thing to do is re-read The Assassins Blade and compare Aelin before and now, how different she is. She is still her cunning and strong self but now i think she has more reason to be now then she did before. I can learn from your characters and from reading your books I feel like I’ve become a better

The author of the book, Mr. Moore, became successful and was given the opportunity to receive “one of the most prestigious academic awards for students in the world” (Moore, 2011).

    When my mom asked if I wanted to see this year’s Lakeside musical, I honestly was a bit unwilling. It’s not that I didn’t want to support my two or three friends up on stage and in the crew; I just don’t have a very good track record with high school performances. I’m a critic: I have always been very critical of myself, and very critical of others. I unwittingly judge the actors onstage, and end up feeling guilty because I probably could have done no better. On top of this warped superiority/inferiority was the nature of the musical they were performing; all throughout third grade I had been obsessed with the movie-musical Hairspray. I knew all the songs, most of the lines, and wasn’t sure if anyone could top Queen Latifah. But I was mistaken.

  • Mr Brooks Character Analysis

    546 Words  | 2 Pages

    The main character of Mr. Brooks is nothing short of a self-made man with a loving family and a productive business. However, not everything is what it seems. Mr. Brooks has a constant urge to kill. Like most real life serial killers, Mr. Brooks has a charming personality on the outside but a twisted brain on the inside. Every single action he took was thoughtfully played out, as if he were acting in a stage play with no chances of failure. Many psychopaths portray a high IQ and intelligence just like Mr. Brooks had. However, Mr. Brooks was not a psychopath. Deep down inside, he still harvested a strong familial love for his wife and daughter, and understood the mental and physical consequences of his actions. Instead, Mr. Brooks is the type of character that cannot be explained with just one theoretic analysis. The story illustrates that Mr. Brooks was a psychotic suffering from schizophrenia and that somehow his urge to kill could be passed down by generations. With this outline the
