Palmer Lee - Assignment 2

While I haven’t had much time to read books within the past year, I have read a few. One of them is called Sea of Poppies, and it’s about India in the 1830’s, right before the Opium wars started. While reading the book was required for a project, I ended up thoroughly enjoying it, and I connected with several of the main characters. Another book I read was The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. This book is a prequel to the Hunger Games trilogy, and it’s told from the perspective of the main antagonist of the original trilogy - President Snow. While the book itself wasn’t particularly profound, I do enjoy reading science fiction and fantasy novels. I also started another book called The Horse Whisperer. My grandma had lent it to me so I tried to read it, but I couldn’t really get into it. It seemed to be well written, but realistic fiction isn’t really the type of thing I like to read.
