Amazing Book Report Part III

Hello, 
    
     This week I continued reading the book The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. One of the songs I would use to describe my book is Rope by the Foo Fighters. In the book they are always going through hard obstacles, and they need each others help. Another song would be Float On by Modest Mouse. As perviously stated, they go through a lot of obstacles, but they just go right through it. Another song I would choose is Back Against The Wall by Cage The Elephant. It seems that the group is always in trouble and has their back against the wall. Lastly, I would choose is Going On by Gnarls Barkley. Although the group goes through some hard times they still go on and try hard.

My amazing book report

         Dear Society, 
     

      This week I read Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer. This is an extremely good book. It is about the author, Jon Krakauer, climbing Mount Everest. I liked this book because it is very exciting and the author makes the reader feel like they are in the book. The book is enticingly lifelike and also interesting. The author used a lot of detail, so the reader knows just what is going on. I like how Krakauer uses some history in the book. He`ll say that something in the past happened on Everest, and then will give some back round. There are so many unexpected events so the reader just has to keep reading and find out what happens next. Krakauer explains how hard it was to go through. One of his best friends on the trip dies, and he is constantly sick. The book makes you feels like you are on top of the mountain with all of the details provided. The book is very moving. It shows the reader that the are a lot of hard times and situations, but to just keep going and to never give up. If Jon Krakauer would have given up on Everest, he would of died. So overall I loved the book and Jon Krakauer is an amazing author.


I recommend this book to everyone, I also recommend Into The Wild also by Jon Krakauer. I am uncertain how many books I have read due to the misplacement of my journal. I hope that it will show up soon.
