My first book I loved this quarter this book is called Burning Enna made by Shannon Hale
The main character is Enna and the antagonist is her own self.What does the main character want? Enna wants to protect the Isi and finn and all of her friends and only family she has her brother ( he dies ).Enna can’t diciend if she should bury it and never let anyone use it or should she use it for herself.Enna uses the fire power as soon as the war ended she went and extinguished it.Enna fell in love with finn and it ended as she sit next to her best friend and lover.
Out of five, how many star would I give Burning Enna I would give four stars. Because I don’t like how the author doesn’t give much imagery. Until the end of the book I couldn’t tell how Enna looked until the end of the book. My favorite part is a small detail my favorite part is when Enna sells out orange eggs saying it a “Holy egg buy one today and bring good fortune to your friends and family!”I love this part because afterwards she got sent to the enemy nation’s king because the king needs some good fortune. I think this book is fantasy fiction because people in this book can use magic and there are kingdoms with kings and queens.
A few place readers can get their hands on this book is in the Meser library and the Gum Spring library.Also at bookstores like Million books.One family member that would like this book would be my sister Himani. One friend in my community that would like this book is my friend Mita she is in 9th grade. A reader who likes to read a lot of fantasy would love this book.I say that because in the book people use magic and kings rule the kingdom and orange magic good fortune eggs. Have you watched or read Ever After High well the author of that wrote this book so if you like that you might like her other books.
My second favorite book this quarter is Inside Out and Back Again made by Thanhha Lai
The main character is Kim Ha and the problem she faced was the side effects of the Vietnam war.Kim Ha want to fit in with people in the United States all the way in Alabama and stay happy with her mom and three brothers.People at school and at the cowboy’s house be mean to her and by looking at them you can tell that they hate you. Like at her school people bully her. And at the cowboy’s you can tell that his wife hate her family the moment she described how she look that them.Eventually she made some good friends and then pranked the bullies and they don’t say what happened but the bullies never came back but that’s good right? They In the end Kim Ha was going to school with her brother and then played with her friends in school and learn that her father actually died.
Out of five stars I would give four and a half stars. I give that many because I really love how Thanhha Lai write amazing imagery and the story is amazing. I think the genre of this book is realistic fiction because what happened to Kim Ha could have happen to anyone. At first Kim Ha didn’t make any friends then as the school year went by she made a few friends just like her I made friends later in the year. One of the things I liked in the book is when she tells how she saves money. How? Well she gets ninety-nine grams of pork instead of a hundred grams and instead of four pieces of tofu she only gets three and three fourth. Lucky the book didn’t give us a suspenseful ending.
If you like free verse than you should read Inside out and back again because the free verse is amazing in this book. I think my sister Himani would also like this book because she likes Thanhha Lai’s books. Someone else that would like this book would be my mom. My mom likes to read book that have detail and that is in free verse. A place that you can find this book is in the Gum Spring Library. The type of reader that would like this book would be the people that sympathize with people it books that they read.
