Neal Shusterman has wrote a few books that I have
enjoyed. He is definitely an author to read books by whether you’re a guy or a
girl because it’s fantasy and interests a lot of people. I really enjoy his
books because it’s all like what could happen if society was like this. He is
normally compared to Ray Bradbury because they both like to talk about the futuristic
qualities in their writing on what would happen if people were like this or technology
was this advanced, and how this would affect society.
One of my favorite novel by Neal Shusterman is a book
called Bruiser. The main character in the book Brewster can’t have any friends
because if he starts to care about people he’ll take away their pain. I just
thought that was such an interesting topic to write about it; the reader
literally keeps reading to see what happens to Brewster and his newly affection
for Tennyson and Bronte. The book centers around the trouble teen named
Brewster which I feel like some people might be able to relate to. I think that
it’s interesting that Neal Shusterman takes the opposite idea of it’s
impossible to care too much because in this story caring too much could make
Brewster die. This novel was really interesting, and just taking the one idea
of what would happen if a person could take pain away and getting a whole story
from it amazes me.
Another novel by Neal Shusterman that I have read is
called Full Tilt it’s one of his smaller novels that I read all in about an
hour and a half. This book basically centers on the idea of a carnival where
the people are to make it past seven rides before the end of the evening, and
if they can’t make it through the carnival rides by the end of the evening then
there soul’s stay in the carnival where they are to be slaves till the end of
time. Again, this is another one of Neal Shusterman novels where he takes the
idea of fantasy and creates a shorter novel about two boys Quinn and Blake
where they have to survive the ride, but basically the carnival is made from
their own head where their deepest fears they have to confront. I thought this
book was really weird and it’s why I liked it so much it took the strangest
fears and thoughts from the characters brains and created a ride from it. I
think that Neal Shusterman is really creative for having wrote a novel all
focused upon the invention of what our mind can do.
