Pedro And Me Analysis
Pedro and Me Pedro and Me is the book that I chose for my review. I chose this from the humorous category because Chris Johnson told me that it was funny. The author of the book is Judd Winick, who was on MTV's show The Real World. Judd comes onto the show knowing that one of his roommates was HIV positive, but he did not know who. He soon meets Pedro and learns that he is the one, and realizes how normal it is living with somebody that has the HIV virus. This book had its' funny parts, but I probably would not consider it in the "humorous" category. The book is animated and written like a cartoon because that is Judd's specialty as you will later learn.
Judd and Pedro become roommates on The Real World. They begin to bond and become really

    In the Novel “Argo”, the author, Antonio Mendez communicates to the reader that in order to pull off inconceivable acts of contrivance, one must think outside the box. Many people think that crazy and unusual plans never work (especially when dealing with an exfiltration).

This book helps to disprove that theory by showing its readers the ways a plan can work when it goes bigger and bolder than the ordinary.

Richard Rodriguez takes the readers through one of his annual Christmases and brings to light, through his thoughts, the disconnect that exists between himself, his siblings, and his parents.
