What to say about this week? Well, there was A LOT of homework in all of my classes but the fact is I don't think I have enjoyed my other homework like I have my English. (And I didn't just say that to get on Mr. Mullins's good side.) But all week I have been reading my independent reading book and oh my gosh it is so good. I never would have expected this book to be this fabulous.
Bernard Cornwell is definitely not my go-to author. Let's be honest, he writes historical fiction but since I'm doing a project on revolutions I figured that it would be appropriate. Redcoat is probably one of the most busy books I have read in a long time. Recently my mind has been on a young adult novel that releases in 12 days (not that I'm counting), so finding the motivation to read this book was actually quite difficult. But once I got going, it was hard to put it down.
I am actually almost done with my book (which is actually a good thing since I get to write an essay on it tomorrow) so I'm really sad to see it in. Throughout the entire book has been constant up and down climax hills that are just driving me crazy and then there is also the fact that there is a love triangle in the book as well as the fight for liberty against the London Lobsters. But other than that I have to say that this book was really enjoyable and although the information that I was looking for was not necessarily up front and in my face, it was still very useful for my project.
Thank God for Redcoats because if we didn't have them then we would live in a world surrounded by overbearing and obsessed teenage girls who can't focus on anything other than petty romance novels.
