OK so the book i am reading is called the yearling, which you probably already know since you've read my other blogs about what im reading, now Jody and penny, Jody's father, are still at grandmas house and they just had dinner and they went to bed and the next morning, Oliver shows up. Oliver is grandmas son, and he only comes home twice a year according to the book. he has brought back gifts from the places that he has been. right now they are unwrapping all of them and having breakfast. Oliver has brought back a hunting for Jody and tobacco for penny, for grandma he has brought back a spool of silk. i like this book because it has so much detail. when Jody id in the forest i can actually picture his surroundings and hear the sounds and even taste the berries that he picks up along his way. i like books that give you an image in your head and an idea of the smells. i think those books should be the only books out there, some books are just so boring, but they have really good story lines, they just don't have many details. of course that's different for some people, some people might actually like those kinds of books, but personally i just think there crazy. today i have read a little more and Oliver has gotten in a fight with the Foresters. they almost killed him but penny and Jody jumped in, Jody blacked out in the end, and penny had a bruised eye but Oliver was much worse. well that's it, ttfn
