Running Loose
Chris Crutcher This story is about a boy named Louie. He is in his senior year of high school. He has the girl of his dreams, a starting spot on the football team, and has decent grades. But everything turns out for the worst. Louie the protagonist was a well fit, thought out person. He had a few antagonists, Jasper the principle, Lednecky his football coach, and boomer the running back on the team. Louie the round character over all was confronted by many the flat characters faults and great doings. Louie the narrator is the main character in this story. He knows a lot about everyone, but he assumes things that he doesn’t know but usually assumes correct. He tells it like its happened to him in in real life. As if it was true. This story takes place in Trout, a small town with not much population. They have an eight man high school football team. They don’t have baseball. Most of the story is placed in the winter.
The theme would have to be that love can bring you up, but then drop you as hard as anything. If love does drop you then you shouldn’t mope around about it you should find something else your passionate about.
This story was over all a really good story I recommend it to anyone who likes love and anguishes stories. These way of life probably as happened to someone out there and if so that must really

    The theme that I have chosen is death. I chose this theme because death plays a part in Andy's life and it plays a part in Henry's life. It affects us all in our lives because people die all the time and people go through hard a time when people die and that's what happens in the book. I will be explaining how death is used in the book from the First World War and during the present day.…

    I would recommend this book to another person for many reasons.First the narrator tell her story not as a sad story or in way the reader should feel sorry for her but rather as a story of what she experienced going through depression and overcoming it, making the story come out as a inspiration. The emotions is raw and it mirrors what a depressed person would feel. Her mother think that depression is a choice and it…

    Angela's Ashes

    His life is not much different than many others still living today, which is something I liked about his story, was that I found some things in common with him. He is Catholic, he was on the dole which is government help, his father was unemployed, he has siblings, he’s the oldest, he wants to have fun, and wants to help out his family. I enjoyed that we had things in common, so I knew how he felt in some situations. His writing was outstanding! Except it was a little difficult to know when someone was speaking without quotations, and he uses words that are used in Ireland and Religion words, so it might be difficult to understand the vocabulary that is used. I really enjoyed the beginning even though some people started to make me mad. I didn’t enjoy when he starts to get to the part of his life when he is becoming a teenager it starts to get uncomfortable and really personal. It’s really sad though when he gets in his teen years because he isn’t so innocent any more, he knows things now that he knew he been lied to, such as where babies came from. He was told by his father that it was the ‘Angel from the Seventh Step’ who brought the baby but when he gets older he knows the truth.…
