A Separate Peaz.

             Well, I may as well just start my review by revealing to you, the reader, (but probably Mrs. Gilman, and not anyone else), that I am not very far at all in my book. I have had much schoolwork lately and haven't had much free time to read and do my annotations. But, I must say that I am relishing the book so far.
              A Separate Peace is about two boys attending a boarding school in England, and their relationship, because they are two polar opposites. Gene is intellectual and cunning, with a slight danger side to him, while Phineas is the guy who is really good at everything he does, and everyone wants to be him. These two are completely different, and so far it has been a kick in the pants to read. The book is very exciting, and makes you really feel like you're there, experiencing the crazy happenings. It is extremely well written, and it also has some sentimental value, as it's set in World War Two, and the boy's have to cope with the war, etc.
               One literary element that I will be REQUIRED to do is DEFINITELY the characters. As I said, these two boys are not at all anything alike, and some of the witty banter between them is just too much to miss. They both have arguments, but the sort them out with wonderful finesse, and it is just the classic case of opposites attract. This book so far also seems to have a theme of friendship, or knowing who your real friends are sort of theme to it, but as I said, I'm not quite far enough into the book to know for sure
              A book that I can relate this too is probably Harry Potter. I know that sounds pretty odd, but just hear me out. I'm not talking about the conflict aspect, I'm talking about Harry and Ron's friendship. Every one's sure to have read Harry Potter by now, and they must know enough to know that Harry and Ron's friendship is one of the best ones thought of in literature yet. They are a quirky, and hilarious pair. And while Harry is a great, prophesied wizard, Ron is just a goofy, dim witted ten who can't get anything right, and this compares to the whole aspect of opposites attract.
              As for my ideas of a creative project, alas, I have none. I would like to make a movie with someone but no one seems to be reading this book (Ha). Maybe a poster or something else, but you can rest assured knowing that it will be creative.
