Book talk/Book Blog:Fallen Angels by Walter Dean Myers
This book is about a 17 year old his name is Richie Perry he just graduated high school. He doesn’t have enough money to go to college so he decides to join the army and gets shipped to Vietnam. He meets friends while he’s there Peewee, Lobel, Johnson, Monaco, and Brunner and together they fight through the war trying to get out Alive. As Perry is fighting through the war he loses half of his friends and almost loses his life, when his first friend died he couldn’t get over it but then he had lost more and had to get used to it. As he was getting on the plane to leave Vietnam he was having flashbacks from the war. My question is, Peewee said that Perry has to visit Chicago before he goes back to Harlem? In the sequel Sunrise Over Fallujah Perry’s nephew sees him and a friend laughing and talking but they were talking quite.
Okay, this book seems really sad. Let's talk on Monday about it. Keep up with the great reading, and be sure to double check the rubrics for your blogs.
