In the book The Sister Brothers one character that I think is a archetypal hero is Charles.Some of the things that make him an archetypal hero are he is brave, reluctant, and kind. He is brave because he goes on these missions with his brother that could possibly get him killed. He is reluctant because he questions why he is sent to kill these people and doesn't know if he should kill the.  Finally he is kind because he helps people on the way that don't have anything to do with him.
Right now i am reading the book  the sister brothers this book is about two brothers who are paid killers but it is set in the wild west. In the one scene the one brother is bitten by a spider and at first he thinks he is fine but goes to the doctors. After a night of sleep he wakes up to find that his face is swollen up like a melon. This part of the book reminded me of myself when i hit my head and at first there wasn't anything there but after a few days I realized that it was a lot more serious and that there was a giant bump on the side of my head.

I am reading the book The Monkeyface Chronicles by Richard Scarsbrook. I like the book so far. The main character is named Phillip Skyler he suffers van der woude syndrome which is a facial deformation. He is bullied by two kids from his school Grum and Grant who happen to be the children of the schools principal. They beat him so badly that he tries to run away from school and his town. Half way through leaving he gets stopped by his mom who takes him back to school. His grandpa mom and brother all go in and talk to the school and try to tell them what happened. Phillips brother saw what they did to him but all Grum and Grants friends told them the opposite. Since the principal is the kids father he agrees with the rest of the kids from the school so his children can not get in trouble.

"Classic a book which people praise but don't read". I think that this quotes describes me because I start to read books but i never really finish them. I think I do not finish most of the books because I get distracted and put down the book and never get back to it.
