Literature Analysis #1

The book i have read is " I Hunt Killers ". It is about a teenager whose father was a serial murderer who would take him to work a few times. If you know what i mean. Because of his dad he feels like he doesnt belong anywhere. He has one friend. howie. they had been friends for a long time. even before the serial killer stuff. Howie still accepts jazz for who he is though. Him and howie both find out about a murder that had happened in there town. He wants to help because of his exstensive knowledge on serial murderers. That is what this book is mainly about.

The theme of this book would be rather dark. It also talks about life as a teenager. How difficult it is and all that.  It has a pretty realistic feeling to it. It also has some knowledge about the subject of serial killers.

"jazz closed his eyes, trying to chase away his fathers voice, but it was not good." The author brings out his fathers voice quite a bit to bring some detail to the character."You'll be the greatest ever, jasper. they'll never cath you" You'll be the new boogeyman parents use to scare their kids into behaving.

Plot: "by the time Jazz go to the field outside town, yellow police tape was everywhere. strung from stake to stake in a sort of drunken, off-kilter hexagon". PG3
Setting: "the town of lobo's Nod was too small..."PG3
Protagonist" Jasper "jazz" Dent wasnt about to let the cops see him." PG4
Conflict: " by the time jazz go to the field outside town, yellow police tape was everywhere. strung from stake to stake in a sort of drunken, off-kelter hexagon". PG3
Mood:" It," Jazz reminded him again, staring down. He knew he was suppoosed to feel something hiere. PG 32

"Jazz was amused to see a guy with a metal detector just outside the crime-scene." " He hated most things about Dear Old Dad, but what he hated most was that dear old dad was pretty much always right."

A little bit changes. when it talks about his life with his dad. the tone will change and you kind of just feel sympathetic for him. It just kind of happens. Thats what i feel whenever it talks about his father and when he talks about his friends or anything. you kind of get a relating feeling. Kind of like you feel the same.

He is a dynamic character. He changes slowly over time. By the end of the book his personality has changed quite a bit.I dont want to ruin the ending so i dont want to go that much further into this subject.

i feel like i met a person because because he had a lot of emotion in the book because he hated his father and didnt want to turn out like him. " you're just like your daddy. now that hurt more than any beating".
