Shooter

Product Information

This book did remind me of Breakfast Club, but it was a fast read about a timely subject that I am sure YA's an new adults will want to read. Sadly, too many of them have encountered this situation. I think it's a different take on these school shooting books I've read. The most memorable one was Hate List by Jennifer Brown- excellent, gripping read. This Is Where It Ends by Marieke Nijkamp was also a compelling read. But this one suits just fine. It is well written with a view point many YA's may not be familiar with. a b Metcalf, Mitch (August 16, 2017). "Updated: ShowBuzzDaily's Top 150 Tuesday Cable Originals & Network Finals: 8.15.2017".

I feel like this book is very repetitive because there are three main characters that experienced nearly the exact same thing from a slightly different perspective. Although the main characters tell almost the same story every time at the end of the chapters there is almost always a big realization or different interpretation of that interview. One thing that I really liked about the book is the different type of people interrogating the main characters. These people range from being very kind and gentle with the main characters to being very aggressive and punchy toward this situation. One other thing that I found very repetitive in the book is the interrogator's intents. Although the interrogators behave differently toward the characters they all have the same intent to find more and more about the character's family lives. I understand that it is an important part but I do think it is a little bit over kill to have most of each chapter being a different interviewer asking nearly the exact same questions. On the other hand one thing I did like about the book is the use of modern day language. There are a couple words that appear to be out of the ordinary but every time there is a weird word or phrase the character briefly explains that term. Shooter | Cast Interview: Ryan Phillippe".

Time to Hunt”, engages Bob in finding a solution to the mystery of the death Fenn and this culminates into a one on one fight with Solaratov. This particular novel also partly depicts Bob’s participation in the war in Vietnam. I'm really not sure how I feel about the setting. I know that school shootings happen in Canada, but they happen at such an infrequent degree, it almost doesn't feel like our story to tell. On top of that, the subject matter could have been handled with a lot more sensitivity in general. Bob Lee and Isaac visit a man who served with Earl in Vietnam.

This book is really unpredictable because you never really suspect what's going to happen and then when it happens you can't believe something like that would in real life. Some events and scenes that were really unpredictable in the book were when Cameron wrote the numbers 666 in red in paint on the church walls. when they shot baby turtles in bags because they were going to practice their aim with a gun, when they wrote in their own blood the pain starts now in the school library and bathroom, and when Cameron's dad starts choking him for being terrible at life and not being good enough for him.
