Let's be real- everyone thought 2020 was going to be their year. Then January happened- then February and March- and here we are in April- waiting for the inevitable boss battle of sorts. If you have not seen the memes regarding the whole 2020 situation- I have to ask... are you living under a rock? Among the many memes I've seen- some better than others- several I've seen have been poking fun at 'the movie we thought 2020 was going to be' and 'the movie that 2020 is'. As I'm slowly running out of books to write about on here, (aren't we all?), I'll be taking this time to ask the question: what kind of book is 2020? Fiction vs. Nonfiction?  While this is obviously a real-life event- it of course by default has to fall into the category of Nonfiction. However, for the reason that I need something to fill up the rest of this review, I will continue this blog post under the assumption that the entirety of 2020 is a fictional event. Realis...

Reviewer: Vraj Patel Spoiler Warning, I guess (I don't really know what counts as a "spoiler" in this case) Since quarantine started, I realized I do not have any books available on my bookshelf to review that I have not already reviewed. I can't really go to the library to check out a book because 1, it's closed, and 2, I don't want to get coronavirus. While thinking about what to do for my next blog post, I noticed my AP Bio Exam prep book on the floor, and suddenly this review came to mind. So, here we go: Summary: The exam prep book begins, as all books do, with a table of contents. The chapters are: 1) About the Exam, 2) Biochemistry, 3) The Cell, 4) Cell Cycle, 5) Energy, Metabolism, and Enzymes, 6) Cell Respiration, 7) Photosynthesis, 8) Heredity, 9) The Molecular Basis of Inheritance, 10) Biological Diversity, 11) Evolution, 12) Plants, 13) Human Physiology, 14) Endocrine and Nervous System, 15) The Human Immune System, 16) Animal Reproducti...

Hi all, my name is Charles Richard Hechler and today I will be reviewing Micheal Vey the Prisoner of Cell 25  by Richard Paul Evans. I first came across this book in middle school, but I never read it, mostly because it was on the Rebecca Caudill list and I personally thought that most books on the list were quite bad. However, my little brother was extremely fond of the books and even purchased some. A bit before break I happened upon the first book and decided to give it a go. Now without further ado let us get into the review. *Spoiler Warning* The story kicks off when Micheal, the main character who is constantly bullied because of his Tourette's Syndrome is in another fight with a group of bullies and he discovers he has electric powers when he nearly electrocutes the whole group. The only other person to witness the encounter is Taylor, who is conveniently both the hottest most popular cheerleader that Micheal has a crush on, as well as another person who can use electric ...

Hello all. As Blog Week 2 comes to a close I once again find myself searching the internet for non book review topics to write about and I found a site that suggested I write about the genres. So I decided I would rank them and hope for the best. This is my personal opinion so no need to get angry as you guys have done before. 6. Romance Like most people, I am not a big fan of romance. I have yet to read a romance novel that I have enjoyed. Hell, I don't even like it when romance is mentioned in a book of any genre. Guess I'm just not a romance guy. 5. Non-Fiction Although I don't dislike non-fiction, I'm not too fond of it because it is the opposite of fiction. (I know that's the point but still) I like it when literature goes outside the laws of reality because then the stories tend to be more unique and interesting as well as entertaining. 4. Horror I like this genre for a few reasons but the biggest being that I like to watch people suffer at the hands (Or...

Hello again all. It is currently day three of blog week as I am writing this but I like writing these for some reason so I don't mind writing them early. Today I thought I would talk about villains in literature and why most of them are kinda bland and predictable. This is gonna be a quick one so let's get's going. The average villain in literature will have some dumb reason for being the enemy of the main character. Most of the time these reasons are brought up throughout the book but rarely do we ever see too much evidence that these events have happened. These villains are fine but not great. They serve their purpose in the book and work most of the time but rarely will you finish a book with one of these villains and remember the villain of the book above all else. Why? Because they are forgettable and they are all the same. Sure, they might vary a little but the most important part of a villain is the motive and when we get a villain with a motive that we don't se...

So in my recent posts I have talked about how great comic books but went into very little depth and I figured since I was trying to avoid reviewing a book that I would write about it some more. This is gonna be a quick one so let's not make the introduction as long as the rest. When I first considered reading a comic in the fourth grade, I was worried that the illustrations wouldn't show enough detail to make up for the lack of words but oh boy was I wrong. The illustrations in some comics are able to do double what a normal book could with words. A big reason for this is that you can see the same amount of information in the corner of a comic panel as you could reading an entire page from a regular book. My favorite example of this is the background of an action scene in the Spider Man Comics. Call me nerdy, dorky, or whatever it is that you want (I probably won't hear you due to my poor hearing so it doesn't really matter) but I really like these comics for several r...

Hello All. I was thinking of things to write about for Blog Week 2 and since I was trying to stay away from just reviewing a book I thought to myself, "Hey, what's something dumb you can write about since you just hit your head on a stop sign and your brain isn't quite functioning properly?" Ranking different kinds of writing was the best I could come up with so here it is. Keep in mind that this is my opinion and that I personally just hate poetry. If you're not gonna give it to me straight, I don't wanna hear it. (I also know that I am probably missing tons of different kinds of writing but again they were just some I could think of.) 6. Poems Not much to say here other than I am not a poetry person. I personally find it to be a waste of time.(Sorry Mr. Mitchell) I think the main reasons I don't like poetry are because trying to follow the rules of poetry seems unnecessarily complicated to me and I am not good with metaphors which is something poetry ...
