Week 12 Reading

        "The Pact" by Sampson Davis, George Jenkins, and Rameck Hunt.
        So far, "The Pact" is a very interesting book. Even without reading the end yet, it is an amazing story of friendship and perseverance, told from the three perspectives of Sam, George, and Rameck. It is the story of these young boys who have to grow up in a hostile environment, with gunshots being as frequent as insects, and drug hustlers on every corner. Not only was it a surprise that they survived unscathed, completed high school, and later decided to go to college, Sam, George, and Rameck wanted to become doctors. Unfortunately, the writing style does bug me a little bit. If you don't care about books that don't have a distinguished plot, than this book is amazing, but since this is a non-fiction story, there isn't much of a set-out plot.
         Everyone in the class can definitely read this, but if books dealing with drugs, muggings, and murder makes you uncomfortable, I wouldn't recommend reading this book. I still think you all should read this book, because it is an influential book and a great display of human spirit and a little luck along the way.
