     The book that I am going to read is paper towns by John Green. I am starting this book because this week for class we get to decide whatever book we want to read and whatever genre we would like, so a lot of my friends have read this book and they said that it was really good.
     John green is really popular right now because of his most recent book The Fault in Our Stars. I loved this book so much just like the other half of the world! I thought that is was just such a heartwarming story that inspired me so much. It always kept me on my toes waiting for what was going to happen next and those are the types of books that I love. John Green has written 30 books and most of them have been best sellers. I love the writing style of his books and I am very excited to read this book.
     This book is about a boy named Quentin Jacobsen and he has had a life long crush on this girl named Margo Roth Spiegelman, but from a distance. Q hasn't ever really gone up to talk to her in a very long time so he admires her from afar. Margo then crawls back into his life by getting Q to join her on a adventure for revenge. On this trip Q finds out that Margo isn't the girl that he though he knew. Maybe she is different then ha expected her to be.

Satire Post






This picture is showing satire. I know that is showing satire because it is having stereotype as its element of satire. It is showing how the guy up at the podium is saying that 1+1=5 and everyone believes him because of the way that he looks or the way that he dresses, but really we know that this is not true. The other guy is saying that 1+1 doesn't equal 5 it actually equals 2, but no one believes him because of the way that he looks or the way that he dresses. This is stereotyping people by the appearance of others. We judge others and make decisions about people based on the way that they look or sometimes act and this satire is showing how what we are doing is wrong.
