I am Legend

Imagain your the last man on earth. The last surviving human bein. Well in the book "I am Legend" by Richard Matheson thats the case for one unlucky man by the name of Robert Neville. Robert Neville, the apparent last survivor of a plague that has turned his friends and neighbors into ravenous, blood-drinking ghouls, sits alone in his fortified suburban home, going mad. He's the last man, fighting a world overrun by vampires, but does that make him a hero or a monster? This is the question that floats through readers minds as they read this increbile book.This book dates towards the near future. My personl opinion of the book is that you have to be stupid not to like it. Its a great read ,and its a book that you never want to put down. If you want an exciting, intertaing, attention getter book , than this is the book for you. This read is a must, if you enjoy a story that is filled with mysteory with a little bit of action mixed in with it.

Bleachers

"Bam" the legendary Eddie Rake is dead. To some Eddie Rake is a god or super hero. As you read Bleachers by John Grisham you find out its about high school football in the town of Messina and their legendary coach Eddie Rake. The town of messina worshiped football. With the record of 13 state titles and over 400 games including an 87 game winning streak that lasted 6 years. Football was more than just another sport to play or go watch for the town of messina it was their way of life. If you wasnt on the team playin than you was in a boster club that helped out the team an raised money for the football program. the setting of the book takes place at the stadium of messina. All of Eddie Rake football players come back to pay their respects to their once former coach, and what better way to remember him by than staring at the field and remembering every paractice every game they spent with him on that field. I conclude that this is a very good book to read. It teaches alot of life lessons, and if your thinking oh i dont want to read it cause its just about football. Than you should probaly go jump off a bridge cause who doesnt like to read about football ,and also this book is so much more than a football game or life of a football player. Its about life and remembering all the good times you shared with your fellow students. So i say if your bored and have nothin better to do. Go get the book ''Bleachers'' ,and start reading, and i promise you wont regret it.
