Book Report: Part 1

I am reading the book Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O’Brien. The book is about a girl named Ann Burden who is sixteen years old and lives by herself on her parents farm. She is living there by herself because her family is taken from her by the nuclear war that everyone else has perished because of. She thinks no one is out there until a strange man in a green suit appears and gets sick after drinking water from a radioactive river. Ann isn’t sure whether to go help him because she doesn’t know if he is mean, nice, or dangerous.

She eventually goes and helps him and they become friends. Ann and the man start growing things after they fix the farm’s tractor. I have only gotten that far in the book. I think the book is really interesting so far and it keeps you really intrigued throughout the book. I like how the book keeps you reading and it is supenseful from the beginning. If I had to rate the book, I would probably rate it a nine out of ten, because the book is interesting but may get a little bit boring if you don’t like suspense or survival. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes suspense, survival, or mystery generes. I wouldn’t recommend this book to anyone who doesn’t like supense, survival, or mystery books because that is what the book is like. It keeps supense, while it tells a story of survival that is mysterious.
