The
book The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult is a story about a couple with such an
average life, meeting each other, having a baby. It explains how no matter how
average your life may seem or how happy someone looks. Thing could be
completely opposite. Even when you are in a relationship with someone how do
you know you really know someone. Or where they come from. This book also shows
you that you should never under estimate what a parent would do for their kid. It
shows that you should never judge because you don’t know what people have been
through, or how many people are trying to start over and have lived a totally
different life. In the book, the daughter Trixie goes through something
terrible, obviously not going to tell you. But right after that you start to
see a major change in her dad and how he was in the past. The person that
trixie never saw and got to know started to come out. Secrets started to come
out. I think that after that trixie had a better understanding of her dad.
The theme to this book is very
dramatic. It keeps you on your toes. A literary element is flashbacks. Throughout
the book, they keep referring back to the past. It helps you understand their
lives better and you find out more and more about certain characters that you didn’t
know about before. Especially more of their secrets from their past.
Overall this book is amazing. When I first read it I couldn’t
put it down. When I talk about it I try to be brief because its one of those
books that you want to tell someone about. Where you feel like you cant tell
them a good part without going into too much detail. I think its strengths is
that there is a lot of action and always keeps you on your toes. You always
want to read what is on the next page or what her dad has been hiding or find
out something more about his past. The weakness to this book is that in a
couple parts they drag it out. They seem to go too deep into something and it
feels like your reading the same thing that you read a couple sentences ago. But
that doesn’t happen often, at all. I would recommend this book for sure! But not
just to teenage girls. Anyone guys girls old young. Its an easy read and its an
amazing story that honestly you don’t read a lot. Honestly this is my favorite
book and I want everyone to read it
