1/ 25/ 2015- New Book: Reasons for choice, First impression, Predictions
Today my new book got here. I literally just pulled the cardboard Amazon envelope out of my mailbox, and read the first two chapters of the novel entitled The Global War On Morris. I dont usually enjoy reading very much and I often end up getting tired of the book. Maybe I just don't like words- (if that makes any sense). Anyway, I am actually somewhat excited in starting this book because of the reason I picked it. I found this book on Goodreads looking for something that would be funny. It seems ironic that we just started our satire unit in class and this book is in that genre. It may be a Coincidence but I think that this book will be a enjoyable way to relate to what we are working on in class. So far in the two chapters I've read, I have been Introduced to four main Characters; Morris Feldstein, his wife Rona, Vice President Dick Cheney, and his Special Legal Advisor, Jon Pruitt. From what I've read so far, (and what I read on the back cover of the book) I think that these four character's lives might meet soon as the plot of the story continues. In the first two chapters, I have found the book starting to be as funny as I expected, specifically when Pruitt describes Cheney, saying,"... that permanent sneer, the upturned lip that made it look like he was always on the verge of spitting from the side of his face..." That line gave me a good chuckle, and I predict the rest of the book will continue to do the same.

I know exactly what you mean by not liking words, I'm the same way. I'm glad that you found a book you like and from what you stated above it sounds like it's gonna be pretty good. I hope it's AWESOME, and I might just have to read it myself.
