Final Review

After I completed the novel Three Day Road I had mixed reviews. As I said in my first impression blog I found the start of the novel very boring. Xavier ad Elijah are very well described in the book. I enjoyed the contrast between Xavier ad Elijah's characters in the book, they are two very different people before the war and during the war. I like how differently each character handles the war. Both Elijah and Xavier use there past throughout the war. I enjoy how Xavier relies on his hunting skills to survive, while Elijah uses his English knowledge to bond with other troops in the trench. As I have said before, I also enjoyed how acturate the war was portrayed in the book. The author did not sugar coat it, it was as brutal in the book as it actually was in real life. Besides this, I found the book extremly boring. Some parts I did not understand such as the spirtual parts. Even though this book was won awards I really did not find it a well rounded book, I would definitely not have read this book on my own time, I would not reccomend the book to anyone. I would rate this book 5/10.
