The Book Three Sisters, by me

The book Three Sisters by Norma Fox Mazer is a very interesting book. I enjoyed the great writing styles like irony and descriptive, vivid writing. Also pleasing was the exciting plot about a girl just like you. What makes the book better though is that I can relate to Karen, the main character. You should read this book for its writing styles, plot and its relativity to life. Norma Fox Mazer put a whole lot of effort into o the writing style of this book. Different varieties of words flow together to make the sentences vivid and descriptive. The book is detailed, but still leaves you to draw your own conclusions and paint your own pictures. Mazer does a fantastic job making this book unpredictable. She twists the story around winding roads that lead you to your own conclusions. Her use of irony has a great impact on the story. This irony adds such an effect that you will feel ad though you have entered a new part of your own unpredictable life. Three Sisters is a very will written book that is descriptive, vivid, detailed and full of irony. Be sure to check out this book! Three Sisters is a very entertaining story. Not only is the book, vivid and descriptive, but it van be used to help you make decisions in your life. For Example, Karen has 3 older sisters, and because I also have three other siblings, I can relate to her problems, and see through her eyes. I can see eh things that she does are either right or wrong. Karen faces peer pressure. Seeing this you and I can see how much of a mistake that would be though. Another example is that I can learn from that mistakes she has made in the book and make sure I stay away form making that same mistake in my life. And lastly, I cam look at the things she did honestly and truly, and act upon those loving motions also. Karen did many virtuous things to keep her relationship with loved ones from falling apart, things that worked very will. You should look at the instances in your life and give up your pride to do those things also. The book Three Sisters is very relative to lives just like yours, and you can learn a lot about life from reading this book. Another item I found pleasing in Three Sisters was the exciting plot. Norma uses irony to create the mood. Karen, The main character is a kid just like you who is growing up and wants everyone to stop treating her so different. Because she is so much like teenagers all across America, the plot is very useful and pleasing. The plot was definitely not slow moving, and at times I lost my breath when the story took and unusual turn. I thoroughly enjoyed the book Three Sisters, and you will too. Those are all reasons why you should read the book Three Sisters. It is well written with different writing styles, has and exciting plot, and is very realistic to your own life. You can learn many important lessons and make choices knowing that you wont make the same mistakes that Karen has made. Also Norma Fox Mazer is s great writer ad many other writings sty
