The book I will be responding to right now is named burned .
This book is about the life of a boy in highschool that was under the impression that there was a pervert watching shower at school . Everyday this same scenario repeated over and over again. This boy was not a killer but he did kill someone that day .
I can honestly not relate to his situation of him being a murderer but however I could find another way to put myself in his shoes. I once was in a situation were there was a kid on my hockey team who wouldnt listen or he would not care at all about anyone all he cared about was himself. I would try to tell him to pass the puck but he would just laugh and cost us most of the season. So the day came that I was so fed up that when we were in practice and I just tripped him because I thaught it would teach him a lesson of trying to mess with me but it just twisted his ankle. He came back and he was the same as he was before he left the hockey practice .
This book is related to everyday life because there is always and there always will be that guy or girl wwho never gets in trouble or never gets caught foe anything. No matter what even if your are in that position there is always going to be that person who gets away with more then you. Your going to want to be like him .
But it turns out that the people who get away with everything their life dosent turn out to well because when their parents are not beside them they wont know what to do because their parents wont be right beside them to tell him or her what to do .

Alex,
I know how frustrating it can be to have someone treating everyone around him (or her) badly. I will never understand how they can feel good about belittling others.
In the book you are reading, you may come to see what it is like for someone who has taken so much of this abuse that he must finally stand up for himself. The only problem is that when someone has taken it for so long, they are not always able to control themselves anymore.
You have given a good example of being fed up of one person's control over everyone. Often, trying to teach them a lesson is lost on them because they truly don't see themselves as anything less than perfect.
I am anxious to see what you get out of this book. I have not read it yet, but you can let me know what you think and I'll probably read it over the summer.
