  1. This seems like it would be an intense book. Although the summery was brief, I can tell that it was a good story. I’ve always liked war stories and a sniper seems pretty cool. I really liked the quote, it’s pretty messed up that kids would be giving drinks with shard of glass in them. It seems like you had a good time reading this book and like you understood it well. Maybe I’ll check it out.

  3. This book definitely seems like a thriller! I think I would love this book because I love to read books with action. Also i read a book which also was about the Vietnam War. This was my favorite book. And if the book is more than 300 pages, it must be packed with action!
