Book review of JARHEAD

JARHEAD    Written By Anthony Swofford 
The book JARHEAD is about when Anthony Swofford went over to what we know as “Desert Storm”, but he was there through Desert Shield and when the status went to Desert Storm. He tells you about his life in the USMC (United States Marine Corps) and his fellow Marines. He doesn’t just tell you the about the about the fighting, he tells you about his life in the desert the good the bad and the ugly of his time overseas.
              
I like the book because its not just about fighting, you read about the fun he had the trouble he gets into and much more. The book stood out for me because I’am
going to be a United States Marine. The Marine Corps Has always intrested me and this book is about the Marines and not just fighting but friendship the brotherhood of USMC.                          
              
This book would be more for teenage boys that like the military. Girls might not like the langauge that he uses.  The book is long Anthony keeps you interested by keeping you in a state of suspense of what going to happen next.

Sexual assault

To whom it may concern.
    The book SPEAK is not a porn of any type. All it does is tell you about a girl that was raped and is now going through a ruff patch. Its a life story almost not a porn, we all know the difference. You should to. This is a really good book and poeple should read the book and if its banned no one can. Mr. Scroggins Says that Speak is  "soft pornography". Which means as he read about this teenage girl getting raped he was aroused. To me thats sick. The book could and will make people more aware of rape and it is out there and does happen.


        The book Speak is a great book. Even knowing someone who was raped i still think this book is a great. This book can let people know about the subject and what people may go through if it happens to them.
