isabellabrouwer1997 's review for:
The Wave
by Todd Strasser
3,5 stars
I liked this book, it's not really what I normally read, but suprisingly to me I actually enjoyed it.
We had to read this book for the IB-english course I'm attending at school, first, we actually watched the small telemovie. It scared me, I can't say much more about me. It was freaky to see the students, acting like robots. The book scared me even more. It's not a scary story in which someone is killed, but just the facted that it's based on a real event freaks me out. You start to wonder, would I act the same as these kids? And that's just the beginning, when you really start to think about the book it has so many great messages.
The writing was fast, but not in an irritating way. It was good, except for a few minor things. Also it was very realistic, partly because it's based on reality, but while the book is a little more dramatic than the real thing, it's not too dramatic.
I would say that this was an amazing read, especially because it's not too long.
