The Running Man is filled with many things that are unexpected. It was only at about a quarter way through the book that I really found out what the Running Man really was. It is a sick TV show where someone has to run around the whole country trying to get killed by hunters. If they succeed they get a lot of money. I like the plot of this story because it can go in so many different directions. I have no clue what is going to happen next. I learn a little bit more about this character with every action he takes. In his situation it’s easy to tell what he has been through. For example he obtained fake ID papers quite easily. I think it’s because he has been around that kind of stuff before. I know he has a hard life so I think it would be easier for him to blend into a crowd and live off the streets. I can’t wait to read more!

I have been reading “The Running Man” and I am surprised in how much I like the book. It’s the kind of book that’s keeps its pace but gives you all the details you need. I have not yet gotten bored while reading it. So far I am starting to believe all the things about Stephen King are true. His writing style is very real. Although this is in a made up place with made up people it all seems so believable.
The descriptions of people and they way they act are quite believable. He doesn’t try to soften characters up or make the story softer. His books are directed to an older audience. He uses words that you wouldn’t find in a Harry Potter book. I really like the way Stephen King writes it is raw and entertaining. I am enjoying this book and will defiantly be finishing it.

I’ve been searching for a new book for awhile now. I didn’t know what I wanted because the previous book was a genre that was hard to find so I decided to go for something else. Books about crazy experiments don’t come by as often as a story. Some of the people in my class have been reading Stephen King books. I talked to them and they said that he was really good writer and were enjoying his books. I also know of many of his books that have been made into movies. Stephen king is a very famous writer so I thought I would choose one of his books.
Stephen King has many books so I didn’t know which one to read. I didn’t know what I was looking for when I saw all of his books so I decided to ask some of peers what they thought of his books. They gave me some suggestions and a quick overview of the books they had read and I was quite interested in one in particular called “The Stand”. When I went to the library to take it out it was gone so I had to find another choice. I was looking at some of the books in the library and all the books there but none of peers had read any of them so I had to go to a second source. I chose one off the shelf to find a review. I chose “The Running Man” and found this review http://www.allreaders.com/Topics/Info_6388.asp . I knew this was the book I wanted the plot intrigued me and I wanted to read this story. It seemed like the kind of book that I wouldn’t be bored with. The setting is something I really like. I am excited to read this book

I finished reading Elephants on Acid and I am quite happy on how it went. I read the whole book without becoming bored once. I was always interested to read more. The book is written the way I like it. Everything is very easy to read. I have gained a lot of knowlegde from this book. Some of it is useful and some isnt. If I every become a waiter I know how to maximize my tips. This could help me but I don’t plan on become a waiter. There also crazy things like if cockroaches would live anuclear apocolypse. The answer is no they wouldn’t. Instead there is a certain type of wasp that has a much higher chance to survive a nuclear apocolypse. Well after this book I think was a good read. I hope the next book I get inst boring.

Still reading Elephants on Acid and I am about three quarters done. These experiments are pretty wacky. I’ve noticed that almost all of the experiments have to do with psychology and how the human brain works. I think people like to read how they work and about some of the crazy things the human mind does. Most of the experiments turn out to be fails but they are still very interesting. They are still crazy even if they don’t turn out. I like how it doesn’t take very long to read each of the experiments. It keeps me from getting bored and I am always ready to read the next one. This is defiantly the kind of book I like to read because if I quit I don’t have to remember what happened in the last chapter. This is a lot easier to read because I can read some of it and then leave it and not have to remember what all exactly happened before. I am excited to finish the book!

Halfway through this book and I don’t have many questions to be answered. The book is all about science and science is pretty much just question that is trying to be answered. Many of these questions have nothing to do with our life. They are just random things that are interesting but otherwise don’t really help us. I do wondering how they thought of some of these experiments such as Elephants being on LSD. I don’t think this would really help us in any way. It is just a wacky experiment that was conducted to see if could see if they could make an elephant aggressive. This doesn’t change our lives in anyway and doesn’t get us any farther in any fields of science.

I’ve started to read Elephants on Acid and Other Bizarre Experiments. This is a very fascinating book because of all the crazy things that happen. I really think I’m going to like this book because it all real facts. This book is filled with crazy experiments each crazier than the next and the best part is figuring out if it worked. Some of these experiments teach me things I never would have known and are answering question about things that are bizarre but still interesting. Some things like could a head live without a body? The answer is yes it potentially could but there is no actual way to do it yet. I have only read the first couple experiments and I am very excited to learn more. I wonder what other crazy experiments I will read about next.
