Dead End in Norvelt By. Jack Gantos

So far In the book Jack, the main character gets grounded for life. His father fought in a battle versus the Japanese. As a rememberace of his service, his father got badges and he kept a fire that he used while fighting in battle. Jack wanted to be just like his dad. Shooting guns and he wanted to join the army. His dad was training him with his rifle. He showed him how to hold it property, how to aim down the sites and how to run with the rifle without pulling a muscle. After lots of training his dad wanted to go hunting with him. He'll let him use his rifle from the battles in the past. After shooting many ducks and almost one deer they went home. When his dad went to work Jack grabbed his rifle and started to play with it. He didn't know it had one bullet in the chamber. He shot the rifle and when his dad found out he got grounded for the whole summer. Jack can only stay in his room and use the restroom. 

Rash by Pete Hautman Thoughts on Ending

So far Rash was a pretty good book I'll say. It takes place far into the future. Football, hockey and French fries are banned. Also diseases and illnesses are very common. Any contact with a human you will be forced to use your medicine 1 hour after the contact. After the one hour, the disease will get stronger every second and makes it harder to cure. I like how Bo, the main character is a rule breaker. It can show how all laws changed and what will happen when you break the law. The most facinating thing about the book is football. Football is banned but there is a camp where you play football to reduce your sentence. The opposing team has buff dudes so the other team will feel pain. During many games the players broke bones, injured ribs and got cuts and bruises. Also to prepare for football, they make the players run from bears. The government wanted this because if your getting robbed, you got to run for your life or you will die. Running away from bears is similar to real life. Overall this book was good. Maybe some pictures to show how the camp and the town he lived in looked like. I'll give this book 9/10.
