Lord of the flies


     I am currently reading a book called Lord of the flies. I am only on the third chapter. I really like the book so far, the setting is what makes the book a mystery. The book has a lot of symbols that refer to a bigger idea or picture. I like how there are symbols in the book, because you have to find out what the author is referring to. You have to solve a mystery inside a mystery.

     Human nature is defiantly apart of this book and how the different atmospheres and circumstances affect the characters. There is always a fight over power and leadership in this book. I don't think that the smoke signaling was a great idea, but the boys will learn from their mistakes and develop experience. I want to find out what happens next and the book is hard to put down when I read because I want to find out what happens next. I would recommend this book to any age group because it is a great book so far.

  1. I like this book so far too. I agree that human nature is a part of this book is some ways. The fight over power is something that I think will affect this book in a big way. I can't wait to see what happens.

  2. I also think that symbols are really interesting and important, and I like your way of thinking of them as solving a mystery.
