Red+Kayak

I read the book Red Kayak by: Priscilla Cummings. I would recommend this to someone I think once you get past the pointless parts it is a good book. On a scale from one to ten I would rate it an eight. It is a good book. It is sort of sad. I thought a lot after this book and it made me think about what it would be like if I was in that situation. That is why I am giving the book that rating. The plot in this story was kind of obvious and easy the exposition is when Brady and his friends are at the bustop with his friends. This is when they first saw the kayak. The rising action is when Ben dies and Brady is trying to get over the fact. The climax is when Brady finds out who sunk the Kayak and it is really intense .The falling action is where Brady’s friends go to court for sinking the kayak and committing murder. The resolution is where Brady’s friends went to a juvenile camp. The characters are Brady, Brady’s mom & dad, Carl, J.T. and Digger, Mrs. and Mr. Diangelo, and Ben. My favorite character is Brady because I think he thinks about the consequences of everything he does before he does it. I think my least favorite is J.T and Digger because they sank the kayak and they did it on purpose but they didn’t want anyone to die but it was still a bad idea.If my friends would do something like that would be really mad. The setting in the story must have been a cold area because they said Ben died because he was in the water to long and froze. I think it sounded like a quiet calm place where nothing ever happened. Mostly because, I t seemed like everyone was so amazed that someone in the area had committed murder and it was hard for them to believe thought the way the characters described it was a nice quiet town. I think the theme of the story is that even if your friends give you a good idea to play a joke and there is a chance someone may get hurt it should not be done. That is why if you do something bad because, your friends told you it would make you cool. That is why your parents say if your friends jump off a building would you. It is always a bad idea if there is a chance an innocent person may be harmed. That is why the theme is a good idea to follow. I would recommend this book to people because, it is a really good book. Not from the beginning but at the end but you have to know what happened to understand the ending. I is a interesting book to read and how Brady deals with his hard decision so if you’re smart you will read this book .I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a really good short book.
