liar

                                          Is the character worthy of praise or criticism? Why?
Micah is very worthy of criticism. I understand she lies but at least make them believable. At first this book really had my attention especially when the Micah, Sarah, and Tayshawn left the funeral. I was so surprised that Sarah left with them. I thought she would have wanted to stick around with his family and mourn and try to pry the truth out of them about Zach’s death. I was very surprise when Tayshawn took the girls to him and Zach’s spot because boy’s are very secretive, but what surprise me the most was all of them where getting alone. Sarah was talking to Micah as if she was regular and so was Tayshawn he even told her he didn’t think she was that bad looking as everyone else thought. What creped me out was the part when they all started kissing that gave me the impression that this was another one of Micah’s many lies. I also felt like they were betraying Zach even though he is dead, because they all claimed they loved and missed him so much, but there they were sitting here locking lips. Micah saying she wants them to kiss her again and she also talks about how tayshawn looked better then zach. This book is definitely sending me mixed signals. Micah really starts to bore me when she talks about being a werewolf and her transformation it all sounds stupid and this makes me not want to read anymore.

Liar

The book liar amazed me I thought it was going to boring the way it started off but it’s the total opposite. The main character Micah is kind of funny to me even though she’s a compulsive liar she makes my skin craw waiting to see what she’s going to lye about next. The way her and Zach got together was kind of weird and its own little romantic way. It seem like he was closer to Micah more then he was to his girlfriend Sarah if Micah’s really even is telling the truth about them dating .I can’t really tell if she’s telling the truth about her and Zach because she lies so much I’m starting to believe her, but I hope she is because her and this crybaby Sarah girl feuding is stirring up a lot of curiosity and me. Sarah Zach’s real girlfriend is a big cry baby and gets on my nerves, but its fun because she constantly keeps asking Micah if she messed around with Zach when she really already knows because big mouth Brandon bust them out. Also Sarah’s character sounds very caddy and bratty the opposite of Micah’s character she’s poor and mixed and doesn’t fit in any where she goes. This makes me wonder what attracted Zach to her sense he supposedly is the jock of the school. I think the book is very interesting and I can’t wait to get deeper into the book so I can figure out how Zach was murdered and who murdered him.

Nervous

The main character of nervous is worthy of praise and criticism because of her different personalities (MPD). Jon is the one who is worthy of praise because she went to college in got a degree in accounting, she also has a very good job and is good at what she does. She also owns her own car and has her own apartment that she paid for herself. Her alter Jude on the other hand is worthy of criticism because she’s a very rude, obnoxious and nasty person. She had plans on taking over Jon’s life for good so she decided she needed a job sense she wasn’t the one who went to college to be an accountant and she thought it was a boring job anyway. So she decided she wanted to be a stripper, so she went to the strip club and tried out to be a stripper by stripping for the owner. She has sexual intercourse with any and everybody she meets. She also was the cause of Jon and her first boyfriend ever almost breaking up because she was jealous of Jon’s relationship so she talked very nasty to him and told him Jon never want to talk/see him again. She also was the cause of her parents’ divorce she had a hooker come to their door on thanksgiving and act like her father’s mistress so after that her dad and mom never spoke again. I feel sorry for Jon because she was never able to leave life on her on or make her own decision and her life.

Nervous

I have been reading this book called nervous it’s the best book I have ever read so far. It’s about a girl named Jon who has (MPD) multiple personality disorder. Jon’s alter started to appear when she was and the first grade. She always was quiet and keep to her self because the kids  bullied her, until one day she was in the playground at school and a couple of girl started picking on her and tried to take her lunch money of course Jon didn’t do anything but sit there and cry because she was scared and had low self esteem. Until all of a sudden she blacked out and her alter who goes by the name of Jude came to protect her. Jude slipped into the restroom where the girls who were bulling Jon were and she beat them up making sure she put one of them into the hospital. From then on the black outs continued as she got older it even ruined her parents marriage she was the cause of there divorce and more mysterious thing that occurred that she couldn’t even remember.  The text stir up a lot of curiosity in me because you never know what her alter would do next to ruin this young women life. It was some very disturbing parts and this book that also made me mad like when her alter/other personality would make her have sexual intercourse with strangers and when she would appear back from her black outs she would be and strange places, or when she would take a shower and would fell and smell the scent of a men even though she had never and her own body talked a to a men or been and a relationship with a man to even experience sexual intercourse because she was to nervous to talk to people period.  So it gave her a bad reputation as a woman so she tried to seek help by going to a psychiatric specialist. The text also had me curious about what cause her to have multiple personality disorder. From reading this book I learn that( MPD) is a very serious disease that can cause some a person to displays multiple distinct identities or personalities (known as alter egos or alters), each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment so never judge a person by its cover.
