Bites



RJ #10 DATE:11/1/11 CLASS:
702
          Dear Mrs.Zrihen, I have just finished the book Bites.
It is a good book although it has its pros and cons just like every book has. I did not like this book a lot although I like some parts of this book. I don’t really recommend this book to anyone if you want to read a mystery. I would rate this book a 6 out of 10 because it was really boring but it had some good parts.
          The strategies I used before reading this book was to skim and scan for text features, and what I found were that at the end of each chapter there was bold font, which I think meant that the author was talking about the present while most of the book takes place during the. Another strategy I used before reading the book was to figure out why I was reading this book for. The strategies I used during reading this book were to check for context clues for words I didn't know, I don't remember any right now. The other strategy I used was to predict what would happen later on in the book. After I read the book I used some strategies like to ask myself what the book was about. Another strategy I used was to find out who I might recommend this book to, I would not recommend this book to anybody really only people that like intense mystery’s because it is not very interesting at all. 
A PASSAGGE THAT I PICKED WAS ON PAGE 27
          “This was what the boy expected all he expected he was not just that kind of kid that did it all he had to try it all in order for him to gain it all,. And it was simple as that”
I think this passage was very meaningful because it was very interesting with all the wording said multiple times in order to fix it to a higher grade.
The genre is fiction and the sub-genre is mystery because there's a problem to be solved. The protagonist is Tyler and the antagonist is Rudy The foil is the taxi driver, the setting is in California in a town doesn't really say where the social and weather conditions are unknown, the conflict is man vs. man. The tone is mysterious and the mood is exciting. The theme is partnership. I don't think there's a moral. The P.O.O is time order because it is going from today to tomorrow and the clue words, next, after, ETC. The point of view is third person because of the clue words, him, her, and them. The author's purpose is to entertain the reader and I don't think there's a perspective.
