Merry Go Round Wanted To Go Home
3,891 wordsI use processes that are most common among my peers to select my books. I usually have one of my parental units, usually my mom, to go out and look for books.

Classic Hero Theseus Mary Renault Tells Story
791 wordsReview of Mary Renault's The King Must Die Mary Renault tells a wonderfully dashing tale of the classic Hero Theseus, who was said to have lived shortly before the time of the Trojan War. Although the book is very appealing to me the author did not follow the classic legends in several aspects.

In Renault's story many details are added that give the tale much more flavor...
