No.3 The Red Badge of Courage

When he was a boy, he dreamed of war.(p1)

I read a book, 'The Red Badge of Courage'. The main character is a boy. He wanted to be a hero and fight for his country and its people. Therefor he decided to leave home and join the army. He also had to get permission from his mother. However his mother cried about this. She didn't want him to get hurt. She needed him here on the farm more than the army needed him. But he left his home and join the army. At first, he was happy because he could join the army and become a hero. Gragually he wanted to go home and felt fear.

No.2 Anne of green gables

Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew want to adopt an orphan, to help on the farm at Green Gables. (from back cover)
I read a book, 'Anne of green gables'. I think this is a famous story in the world. The reason why I chose this book was I knew this story. So, I thought I tried to read in English. When I was an elementary school students, I watched this story on TV for the first time. This was very interesting! And this story was made into a movie. I want to watch it! In this story, the main character is Anne. She likes talking very much. One day, Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew want to a boy orphan to help on the farm. However, they get a girl, Anne. They are so shocked about this. But the ending of this book is very happy. If you are interested in this story, please read it.

No.1 Justice

Terrorists don't care who they kill or hurt; they're not interested in justice for other people, only in bombs and guns and killing - and in escaping from the law themselves. But there is another kind of justice, an older kind, before there were police and laws and prisons. It's called an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a life for a life.... (story introduction)

I read a book, 'Justice'. This story is about terrorists. Sometimes I was scary and sometimes I was exciting. In other words, reading this book gave me a thrill. If you like feeling a thrill, I recommend this book. The opening of this story is the father who are in this book is deceived by a woman. And his daughter is involved the accident. If you know more, please read 'Justice'.

My spring vacation

My  spring vacation was hard time because of my part time job. My part time job is restaurant, so during spring vacation was so busy. However I had good time having a meal out with my freiends and going karaoke. The end of vacation, I went to Miyazaki with my boyfriend. We did sightseeing in Aojima. There were beautiful sea and Aojima-jinja and so on. We also went to Sanmesse-nichinan. I went there for the first time, so I was so fun! Eventually I was very busy, but I enjoyed vacation.
