Summer Blog Entry #4

            The reason I chose to read the book Ship Breaker for my summer reading was mainly because after reading the descriptions of many books, this one really stood out in my mind due to how similar it was to other books I have liked in the past. It is a book about a dystopian society which is the same type of books like The Hunger Games and Divergent. Also, the protagonist, Nailer, is a teenage boy at right about the same age as me which definitely makes the book easy to relate to. Another way I related to this book when I read it was because it is based in a future, drowned city of New Orleans. This especially made me want to read it because my parents grew up near there and I have been there many times and have always loved it.


            I would recommend this book to anybody who likes books based in Dystopian societies. I would also say that nearly any teenage boy would love to read it because of how easy it is to relate to. One day earlier in the summer a friend of mine asked what book he should read for the project and I suggested Ship Breaker. After describing it to him, he decided he will read it. Yesterday, he came to me and said he loved it and is now choosing to read the second one in the series.
