Ok THIS IS THE BOOK
Since I couldn’t find any of the books in Mr. Wasserman’s list he has let me read the book To Give a Boy a Gun. This book is supposed to be a book about two teens who go to a high school and get teased and beat up by the the bullys or by the football players. Therefore, one day they decide to take the whole school hostage.
Before reading this book, I thought that this book would be interesting since in the high school I sometimes see people humiliating other people in school. Normally, I don’t really think much about it, but I am sometimes afraid that the kid who is being teased might hate everyone and one day start shooting people if he gets a gun. Which is what happened in the book.
I also wanted to read the book because I hoped to see what make the people to actually think that the solution of their teasing problems is to kill the people who do it. I have heard many stories like the one in the novel about students with guns in the school who shoot other people because they are miserable. Those stories are just hardly unimaginable for me, just to see teens killing other teens in school. By reading the book I hope I can understand the problems that the teens had in order to make them insane. I also want to see what’s going on in their mind and what the other people’s reaction is to the whole incident
