My Book for the Quarter Book Project

First of all, the book that I chose for the quarter book project is called The Christopher Killer. I chose this book because it is horror. I love to read horror because it is captivating. Also, I chose that certain book because the summary that I read on the back of the book sounded extremely appealing. The summary said it was about a girl whose father was a forensic specialist that examines dead bodies; she starts working with him and soons find herself in danger of being killed by a serial killer called The Christopher Killer. Finally, I also chose this book because it is realistic-fiction. I like realistic-fiction because it gives you the feeling that it could happen and it either scares you or makes you feel happy.

The Importance of Reading

To begin with, reading to many people is boring. I know that because I personally think reading is boring. However, there many things that make reading important. First of all, reading helps improve your vocabulary. When you read you read new words and find their meaning by using context clues and therefore you learn new words. A second reason why reading is important, is because it helps your imagination. It expands it and with it you will think better and have better ideas. Finally, my last reason why reading is important is because you experience different things. For example, you can experience things that you will probably never experience like going to space.
