Today i started reading the book "Monster" i read to page 27 and i thought the beggining of the book was interesting. The book's start attracted my attention because it came from the point of view of a prisoner. The book is writen in the form of a movie. It looks like a script and through out the story the author includes everything that the character is doing (like an actor). The book is about a 16 year old teenager who is being charged with felony murder. Steve Harmon ,the main character is on trial because he was involved in a robbery of a store where the owner was fataly wounded with his own gun. Through out the book "Monster" small pieces of a notebook belonging to Steve Harmon are included. These small pieces tell about Steve's experience so far. Although i am still in the beggining of the book i am predicting that a might be a good book.

"I reach in and wrap my fingers around a triangle of glass. I hold it to Andy Evans neck. He freezes."-page195.. This is a quote from the book Speak when Melinda and Andy are in the utility closet by themselves. Melinda picks up a glass and uses it as a weapon of defense. I chose this quote because it is my favorite from the book. It is my favorite because this is the part where
Melinda finally fights back against Andy Evans.
