Summer Reading Entry 4

      I chose to read Ship Breaker just because of how interesting it looked and how many reviewers recommended reading it. I usually like to read books that are set in dystopian societies because they are different from many of the other books and could be set in something that you might not be familiar with. Like what if the ice caps melted? Or if it was a different story, what if it was set in a nuclear war? I’ve read many novels in the past whether you were required to read them or just chose to. They’re something I’d prefer to read. I don’t really like to read that many love stories if there are any on the list because many can have the same ending.

      I’d recommend this book to young adults or adults because it contains a plot that younger people might not understand like why the polar caps might melt and why specific things in the book would happen. For example, why would they form scavenging crews and why do they call it scavenging crews? Personally, I thought the book was good. It had a good setting, they weren’t always on the oil rig/ship scavenging, they would walk and talk about what life used to be and background on certain characters. It’s not a book where you reach boring parts and would want to stop reading, it would make you want to read more.
