Yeah, I have something to blog about. I just finished my summer reading and I was kind of annoyed by one of the books. I won't say which book it is, because I don't want to spoil things...but anyways. The majority of the books that I have to read for school result in the same damn ending. The main character's friend or relative always dies! It gets on my nerves so much. Seriously, we've read a bunch of narrated books, and it's become so easy to tell which character dies. I don't get why all of the literature our school classifies as "good" involve some tragic death. In fact, it's become such an obvious annoyance in my eyes, that I can even assume which character dies, and I'm always right! The books schools select are all the same, and people fail to understand that good books don't always need to result in some sort of death. Isn't that kind of sad? I don't know, this may be a stupid blog, but it's just something I had to let out to somebody. I am a bit emotional, so I guess that is why I get angered when everyone dies in the books. It just changes my view on the whole book. What I mean by this is I'll be focusing in on the character that I think will die, and fail to notice the details of other things. So this book just caused me to become pissed off to an extreme. I haven't read a recent school book where someone (not even counting the villains) die. Anyone else notice this? If you want to see the books that I've read resulting in deaths of characters click this (these are the last 3 books I've read in school or for school):

Anyways that is all. Peace,
