The book that I chose to read was titled The Brave by Robert Lipsyte. This book was really good and I enjoyed it. To be honest it was the best book I read in a while. People that are into action, drama, a little comedy, etc, should really check it out. You will get caught up in it and you will not wan't to stop reading. The Brave is very good on giving descriptions and telling how it relates to reality. Especially when racism is involved. The story revolves around Sunny, a half American, half Indian struggling to stay alive in the world. This story shows just how Sunny stays alive and how he searches for his mother on the way. The one good thing about Sunny is his boxing skills. He doesn't like the enviroment that he is in while he was boxing, so he moved away from the racist people to New York gainning more trouble there than he did back home. This book has everything that someone could want in a story including action,fighting, drama, etc. This is a very good written story and has very good details within the story. Robert Lipsyte is a very talented author who has quite a bit of respect from me now that I have read his work. Even though this is a great book there still are some weaknesses within the plot. Sometimes the author changes the position of the story so fast that it is hard to tell. An example is when Sunny and his friend Doll are in the pizza place and then it says he is in the store that was across the street earlier on, and it made me get somewhat confused and have to go back and re-read what had happend. The Brave is a book that I can't stop talking about and I hope that every book fan goes and checks this out.
