The Woman in Black

 

      This week I read is The Woman in Black. This is a horror story. And this book made me frightened, but I like it because the story was so interested for me. I wrote down three quotes which especially made me frightened. The first one is: The terrible cry of a child.(p.20) Actually there was nobody there, but he(Kipps) heard it in dark mist. Through reading to continue this book I could understand why the voice came to him. There was a sad story. Second one is: Most of her body was now under mud and water.(p.43) “her” means a little dog. I like dogs so this phrase made me frightened and sad. Luckily she was rescued by Kipps. But I thought mud is dangerous. The last one is: In my dreams, the woman in black pushed her terrible face near mine.(p.52) Next to this page there is a picture of this scene, and the woman’s face was so horror. In addition this phrase is easy to understand and I could imagine clearly without the picture. So I felt frightened.

 

      I want to recommend this book. Because to find the reason of phenomenon is interesting. Actually the scene Kipps’ child died is imply the mystery and made me surprising. I want everyone to experience this frighten feeling. This book is horror but there are few difficult words and easy to reading.

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
