I Live with you - Analysis

I live with you was a crazy weird story. I recently had just watched Parasite and it reminded me a lot of the plot in that movie. The narration is strange it also reminded me of the show You on Netflix which I despise. I have to say this short story is creative but I hate the narrator. The story basically did its job and made me feel uncomfortable.

Game of Thrones - Analysis

Game of Thrones is a great book series and show. What I really enjoyed about the story is the constant changing of character perspective. You get to see all parts of the world through all these different character's eyes. I also really like all of the separate families and their sigils and how each family kind of has a different set of morals than the other. It is reminiscent of Hogwarts Houses from Harry Potter. For example, the Lannisters are sort of known as a family that does not show loyalty to others unless it is strategic enough for them to do so. Hence, they had backed up the Baratheon's at the end of the rebellion to have some sort of say in the King's power. Another really cool thing is religion. The inspiration of the old gods and new gods are taken from Greek mythology. This idea of the new gods overtaking the old is a concept borrowed from the story of how Zeus and the gods and goddesses of Olympus fought the Titans and put them in Tartarus. So that they may ...

The Martian Analysis

What I really enjoyed about The Martian is the style of narration from the perspective of the main character of the story, I can really get engaged into my reading when the character is having a conversation with the reader. I really enjoyed this reading because of how easy it is for me to latch onto the conversation. "If the Oxygenator breaks down, I’ll suffocate. If the Water Reclaimer breaks down, I’ll die of thirst. If the Hab breaches, I’ll just kind of explode. If none of those things happen, I’ll eventually run out of food and starve to death. So yeah. I’m fucked." The casual way the story starts is super great and funny. I love a story with a character who is a bit cynical yet slightly optimistic because they except their fate so they are going to make the best of their situation and be as sarcastic as possible. This story really pulls me in because I'm used to seeing very complex science fiction situations and I just lose interest from all of the complexity withi...

Anansi Boys

I was very excited to read something based on mythology. However, I did not flow into reading this book as well as I would've liked to. The concept of having someone trying to take your place is interesting, but not interesting enough to really capture my attention. Although, it was interesting to see something written about a trickster god and other gods based on animals. I am really used to reading about Greek myth. There are weird moments that I was not expecting, like the whole birds flying out of the mouth deal. Which in my mind I can picture a really cool scene unfolding but I still just did not take enough interest as I thought I would.
