Wonder Struck

This book has two stories going on at the same time Ben's story, told in words and Rose's story told in pictures. Ben, deaf in one ear goes on a exiting mission to find his missing father. Rose deaf in both ears goes on a mission to meat a mysterious actress.


"The wolves had been chasing him again and his heart was pounding." "Ben lay back down on the old cot squeezed between the dresser and the window."


I thought the author did a really good job setting the scene on the first sentence because there was a lot of detail going into how he was scared, and you could tell that he was worried from the first few words. I really liked the second sentence because you felt like you were right there with him in his small room.

5/5 stars

The OASIS is a computer program that every computer program runs through. The billionaire that created this program dies and the first person to find all three of the "easter eggs" unlocks his riches!

I like how Wade Develops in this book. How I pictured him as kind of a sad kid, even if he seams happy, to me he felt a little dark. I think he got happier as the book when on because of his friends. His friends helped him in ways that some other friends wouldn't, they really help him to become a better person in general also.

I have read to page 101 and this is what I know so far...

The OASIS is a computer program that most humans use every day. The billionaire that created the program just died and anyone that finds the three keys will unlock all of his riches. Wade Watts stumbles upon his first clue, and he will do everything to unlock the three keys. 


"Everyone my age remembers where they were and what they were doing when they first heard about the contest. I was sitting in my hideout watching cartoons when the news bulletin broke in my video feed, announcing that James Halliday had died during the night. I'd heard of Halliday  of course. Everyone had."

I really like this introduction, it really got me hooked into the book. The introduction tells a lot about the character in a short period of time.

Not a lot of language but It occurs a few times.
