So I finished Hate List yesterday, at first I thought that I wouldn’t like the book but now that I have finished the book. I have a totally new view on the book. About the last maybe say 175 pages of the book really got me going. Be for I knew it I was done with the book. I couldn’t put it down. I knew on Saturday that I couldn’t finish the whole book, I was falling asleep reading it. So when I woke up Sunday I started reading it as soon as I could. At that point I only had four pages left to read. It was all amazing how Valerie grew and changed, she finally found herself. I think it helped her to tell the victims of the shooting. It was hard yes I will give her that but I think she did need to do it too well heal herself. Reading this book I feel sorry for Valerie, and I can see from her and Nick’s point of view people can be very mean and they shouldn’t be so mean to each other, I know though that, though people stop bullying other people won’t happen ever but I think that they need to step back and think about what they are doing to other people. I know in elementary and junior high I was depressed about people bullying on me and it sucked so much. I would hold it in till I couldn’t anymore and just cry for hours and hours. I have to thank my parents for being there for me they were there for me, my mom unlike Valerie’s was up in my teachers and principals face trying to fix things for me. I love my mom that in high school she had a rep. with teachers if they had to talk to her it wasn’t a good thing, she even got my behind the wheel teacher to be overly nice to me and it even scared other teacher of mine at how nice he was being to me and her. So I can see how Valerie had a list she used it as a way to vent her anger; and now panting is her venting.
I'm glad this book is giving you a chance to reflect back on your own experience. Making personal connections with a novel is important for your comprehension.
