Praise or Critisim

As I read farther in the book Liar I am starting to learn more and more about the story. Micah is a liar to everyone including her teachers. She comes from a background of a lying family so what do you expect from her. I feel sorry for Micah in so many ways, I mean she has to go to school everyday and listen to people talk negative about her, call her names, and do bad things to her or directed to her. I’m confused on whether I want to take Micah’s side of not because I don’t want to take her and then in the end I’m wrong about her. I know that she is a liar but it’s so much she can take as a person or better yet as a teenager. I don’t criticize her for some of the things that she does in the book because I feel that she has a right do lie at times. She doesn’t want everyone knowing about her and Zach so she has to lie to cover it up. They were supposed to be a secret and now everyone knows about them because of Brandon. I don’t exactly praise Micah either because lying is not the best thing to do in a situation like this; she is lying to the wrong people. For example, when she lied to the detectives, those are the wrong people to lie to. The situation she is in is so serious and I believe she don’t take it as serious as she should take. This situation can get really ugly later on in the story because she is a compulsive liar. Micah has to learn from her own mistakes and in the end I think she will learn more than she expects to learn. So I don’t criticize Micah nor do I praise her for the situation that she is in but I respect her for taking it as well as she is taking it.

Reading the book liar is really good for me because it is teaching me how to be patient for what happens next in the text. You never know what is going to happen next, it is all so unexpected. This text has stirred up so much emotion within me because I don't know what to believe or think. Micah is a compulsive liar so it keeps me guessing, that's what I like about books. I noticed that the text uses any language; it has actual curse words in it. The text doesn't hold anything back. The text really doesn't tackle anything, it talks about a lot of things but I think its main focus is on who killed Zach and why does Micah lie about everything for no reason at all. As of now, I really just want to know how Zach died, and why did he die?? I learned a lot from the text, I learned how somebody can be hated so much by the school but she stills stays strong through it all, I think that is so brave of Micah, she is always so calm about everything. I don't think she has any feelings because she lets so many of her peers get by with saying so many bad things about her and her family. As of now, while i am still reading the text I love every minute of it, i love the way Justin Larbalestier writes his story. This is the type of story that keeps you reading and makes you never want to stop reading. I love every minute of this story. It’s a wonderful book. It just goes to show that some students really do go through the same situations that Micah is going through!! Some questions I have about the book is;1. Why does Sarah continue to mess with Micah?2. Why would the students call Micah a murderer?3. Why did Zach cheat on Sarah in the first place?4. Does Brandon have a thing for Micah?

I started reading the book "Liar" and so far i think the book is very good. There are many parts i don't like in the book but, overall the book is really good. In the book we have met many characters so far the main character in the story as of now is Micah. Micah is a compulsive liar she lies about everything you never know when she is telling the truth. In her school people are very rude to her, they call her many names but, they also know that she is a liar. Micah was dating this young boy named Zachary Rubin. Zach is very popular in school unlike Micah. Zach and Micah meets one day and he kisses her and they pretty much go from there. Earlier in the story we find out that Zach has another girlfriend other than Micah her name is Sarah. Sarah is popular as well. One day during school everyone notices that Zach is missing and has been missing for some days. One of the teachers of the school come in and tells the students that Zach has been killed. Of course, everyone is sad and hurt But, everyone also finds out that Zach and Micah was together on the down low. No one believes this, they say" Zach would never go with her, she's ugly". They are really mean to her and now she has to go to school everyday and listen to the people talk about her and call her names. Now she is being called a murderer!! She is not very happy about being called a murderer, she would never kill Zach. This book is very good and i believe it is only going to get better as i continue to read it. I would absolutely recommend this book to anybody. I have already started telling people about it and that they have to read it. I would not have changed any element of the story, i think it is fine the way it is. Further in the book i might feel differently about that question but as of now i don't. This book is very amazing!!
