Elenore and Park

This week I finished Elenore and Park. I thought it was interesting, sad, and clever. The book is about two teenagers, Eleanor and Park living in Omaha Nebraska in 1986. Eleanor has crazy red hair, and has just returned to her house after being kicked out for a year by her step dad. Park is a half Korean comic book nerd, who is just popular enough to not be picked on. One day Eleanor sits next to Park on the bus, and over time fall in love. I loved this book. The premise is good, the characters are well developed, and the story does a great job with the split narration. Overall this was a great book and I would recommend it to everyone in our class.

Absolutely True Diary Of A Part Time Indian

This week I finished The Absolutely True Diary Of A Part Time Indian. It's about a Indian kid named Arnold who lives on a reservation in Washington. One day Arnold decides that he wants to go to a better school then the one that is on the reservation. This causes all sorts of issues, involving his fellow indians rejecting him, and his new class mates felling threatened by him. This book was great. It was funny, had a nice pace, and despite a somewhat disappointing ending, was pretty well written. I would recommend this book to all in our class who have not read it.
