My favorite character was a boy named Simon. He wasn't quite a main character, but he was a big impact on their little society. I felt like he was the only one of the boys that actually knew what he was doing. He was a bit more adventurous than the other boys and wanted to survive. He was a part of the society, but was also on his own.
The book has a few "bad" words in it, but otherwise it is ok.
TBR:
- A Long Sleep
- Silent Boy - Grace
- The Secret Life Of Bees - Talia
So far I've heard mostly middle of the road reviews of this book so maybe I'll try it out when I'm bored. Also the Secret Life of Bees is a really good book.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds good, but kind of gruesome. Thanks for the recommendation. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything you said. also I like how you explained the challenges on the island as, quote "They make a society, but they don't have everything go the way they want". I also liked how you ended the re-cap of the book with "These boys are stuck with not only the challenge of survival, but also making their own society". Happy belated birthday.
