summer 4

Of the choice on the list this book got my attention from the odd theme and setting of the book. I have never read anything like this book before so I wanted to read it. Paolo Bacigalupi used a section of action to get my attention at first. He starts with Nailer going through a ship looking for things. He is covered in paint and is having some problems but is dealing with them in his own kind of way. For personal connections, I felt like I coudnt relate to Nailer that much because he live in a dystopian society and I can’t relate to that. His dad is mean, abusive and a drug addict and I can’t relate to that at all. I can relate to his relationship with his best friend tho. His relationship with Pima is a lot like mine with my friends. I value my friends a lot like family. I don’t see my extended family that much, so my friends are like my family. Nailer doesn’t have much family so he is really close his friends. I would recommend this book to anyone that’s wants a good read. It was very interesting and I loved the plot line.
