Tales of Horror

 

      This week I read is Tales of Horror. This book consist of three short stories, but all of them were so scary and made me frightened. Now I will write down three quotes and will discuss. The first one is: Malcom looked at the high-backed chair by the fire.(p. 12) This is the phrase of first story and it appeared a lot of rats. Malcom didn’t take care of them but when he found the biggest rat surprised and frightened. If I was him, I was surprised, too maybe. Second one is: The stone fell and hit the kitten.(p. 28) Because of it, the kitten was dead. They wanted to play with them but unfortunately killed it. This scene made me sad. And I thought the mother of it was so poor. The last one is: ‘The Devil took you. And the Devil brought you back.’(p. 58) This is the last story’s phrase. Abel is going to marry with a woman but Eric liked her, too. So Eric abandoned him when Abel was drowned. However the day of wedding of the woman her and Eric, Abel’s cadaver washed up on a shore and she found it. Then he thought the phrase.

 

      I recommend everyone to read this book, but I think people who don’t like horror shouldn’t read. Because this is so horror and sometimes appear grotesque expressions. I frightened when reading this book but it was interesting. So if someone have time, please read this book.

" I want to be here. You'll be well soon. You're very important to me. And basketball is only a game. " This phrase is a Mark's. He is good at playing basketball ,and he could go to the final games tomorrow afternoon. But his grandmother was sick, so he decided to absent the game. In the school, his friends was very excited. Because he was sure Mark come to today's game ,and their school get a winning cup. Therefore after they heard Mark will absent the game, Mark's friends and his girlfriend irritated with Mark. First I thought Mark is good boy and he is smart. But now I think he had to go to the match and play. Because not only his friends but also a teacher and his grandma looked forward to his success.

GOODBYE MR HOLLYWOOD

 Book Review:      Today I read GOODBYE MR HOLLYWOOD . Firstly I had thought this book is mystery. However it's not mystery story like Holmes but it contained accidents or questions.        There was a man who is Nick. He is a travel writer and have come Whistler, in Canada for his working. At a cafe in the village he met a pretty lady. He is called Mr. Hollywood from her because Nick likes movies. It's not strange thing but actually the name was beginning of all incidents.       Nick didn't know about the lady, but felt exciting because she was beautiful. After she left the cafe, he finished drinking his coffee and left there. However from the day he was chased from someone. Moreover when Nick was walking in the forest someone tried to kill him with a gun. Nick went to a police, but the officer didn't help him so much. I thought the officer isn't kind and not suit for police men.      To be safe he met the lady again because he has thought she knows something about

'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?'

 Book Review:      Today I finished reading a book of 'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?' This was little long and high level for me, so there are some points that I couldn't understand. However the story was interesting.     There was a teacher who wants his class to have ambition, and to do great things in life. Therefore he enters them for a sporting competition against the rich students of Greycoats School. The team that he has chosen for the competition think the teacher has gone crazy. 'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?' says little boy who is called Hoomey, his eyes round with horror. 'We'll never beat Greycoats,'  the others cry. 'Never in a million years!'      However you don't know what you can do until you try...      If you know the result of the competition, I recommend to read this book. As for me the result made me surprising because I couldn't guess the troubles. About this book OBW3 YL  3.2 Pages  57 Words count  10296 Thank you
