6.Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson

So I rate the dear Treasure Island, two x’s because I did not find it or hold it so dear to me. Why? Well the entire novel you’re waiting till they get to the island and the action starts and your left waiting for quite a while. And although it’s a novel for children, I did not find it the easiest novel to follow (probably because I wasn't paying that close attention) but I just did not enjoy this novel. I have read much better adventurer type narrated novels which are narrated by a child. And I just couldn't wait till I was finished reading this book.

So with that said Treasure Island is not for me and there are plenty novels that are somewhat similar but that I find much more interesting. One example would be the Thief Lord by Cornelia Funke to name one.

So although I enjoyed watching the Muppets version of Treasure Island when I was a youngin, I did not nor would I give this book to my child to read because I personally think there are better novels out there.


So with this said goodbye.
I really do need some kind of phrase or saying to end my blog posts. How about:

Keep on readin (because you know that does not sound corny at all)


ps. if you were wondering I am keeping up with my reading just not with the blog. So expect a rush of blog posts.  (:

pps. remember to...keep on readin because if you don't well then...I don't know what will happen...I should stop...

ppps. I know this post is out of order for some odd reason when I went back to it. It was moved to  my latest post even though it is not. Not exactly sure what happened or how to change it. But for those of you who were worried I couldn't count. Fear not I know my numbers up to 50 :)
And really thats all a person needs to know.

goodbye :)
