Summer Reading Post 2


In my book The Lucky One each character has a certain desire, for instance Logan has a desire to speak up about the picture he found and tell her why he is actually there, he has the guts to start falling for her but doesn’t having any to get the truth out. Another desire Beth wants is to not get hurt by guys anymore and just live a happy life with her son Ben, she hopes to find “the one” and wants to have happiness in her life. The theme I think the book has is true love brings happiness out of people. I believe this is the theme because Beth is in an unhappy state of mind because of her brother dying and having a busy business to run and then Logan comes along, he helps everything fall into place and the pieces start to fit, Beth and her family indulge happiness into their life when Logan comes along and it lifts a weight off of Beth’s shoulders. For the structure of the book, the author made each chapter about a different main character, each chapter shows the point of view that character has and how they are feeling about situations and things happening within the book. Everything about this book is well thought out and I happy with the way it is going.

Summer Reading Post 1


The book I am reading currently is The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks. This book is the kind of book I read, I like these book because they are in my comfort zone, even though I should go out of my comfort I like having books that I actually will finish. The major characters in my book are Beth the mom, Logan the strange guy, the son Ben, the grandma Nana and the ex-husband Keith. The characters play a huge role in the book and make the book the way it is and I love the author for doing that. The setting of the book is in Hampton, North Carolina. Another setting is Beth’s house, they are there a lot because Logan gets a job there and the whole family lives there. Also Logan’s house is one of the settings him and Beth go there sometimes and he works on the house to fix it up. For the end the book I am predicting that something bad will happen because usually the whole beginning is good and everything is happy, but then something unexpected happens, so I am preparing myself for that. My question for the author is why he chose to make Logan and the brother related in a way? The book is continuing to impress me and I hope the ending goes well.
