Free choice for The Blind Side

The Blind Side
By: Michael Lewis
     The beginning of the novel it talks about the real football season and gets you into the real football mood.  I did not mind that the author did this because the novel is a pretty good length.  I know that this novel is not just a football story but has a great amount of a story to tell.  As the story went on, my emotions went from being in a football mood to a more alert and engaged mood as the story got more interesting.  As I am reading I tend to wonder to myself about what happened to Michael Ohers parents.  I then turn the pages and then the author answered my questions, so I feel that the author answered all my questions about the text and story that I have had so far.  All of the words the author uses I can understand and are used in the right way so the reader can understand what is going on.  The author has done a great job with details in writing this story.  I have enjoyed reading it so far and I hope it stays this smooth for me all through out this novel.

    Great visual!
    I think you're going to like the fact that the book is going to give you much more background information...on the sport, on the family, and on all of the characters.
