Outside reading book-- end of book response

Identify the title, author, and genre

In one paragraph, give a brief synopsis of the book.

In a second paragraph, discuss one aspect of the book that intrigued you in some way.  It could be a character, a relationship, a particular scene or even a particular passage. In a nonfiction book, it could be the way the author developed an idea in a particular chapter or passage.  Develop your discussion with specific details from the text as well as specific observations about what the writer is doing.

Then finally, discuss whether you would  recommend this book to others.  What kinds of readers would enjoy it?  What was your over-all assessment of your reading experience with this book?  What did you appreciate or find frustrating about this particular author.
