Book Report: Part 2

I just finished the book Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O’Brien. I still think the book was a good book. I already told you about what happens in the beginning of the book. After she meets the man that came to her house and they start farming, things start to go downhill. Ann is sleeping one night and the man comes over her breathing heavily and when something bad is about to happen, she jumps, hits him and runs. Ann lives in the hills in her village for a while until she feels safe. The man comes looking for her several times and brings Ann’s dog with him. Ann’s dog ends up dying in the end. While Ann is living in the hills, she starts to run out of food so she goes to get more at the store. When she gets there, she realizes that the man is locking the door on the store so she can’t get in and will have to come to him for food. Ann figures this out and goes back to the house, and when she is close to the house, the man shoots her in the leg. Ann wobbles away back to the caves, and rests her leg for a while. Through her time in the cave, Ann thinks up a plan to steal the man’s anti-radioactive suit and cart to go find another place to go or live. Ann eventually steals the man’s materials and leaves him a note saying meet me at the big rock. He comes there and she tells him she is leaving and Ann leaves to find another house, valley, or other people. I would still recommend this book to people who like mysteries, survival, and suspenseful books. This book would probably get an 8 ½ to a 9 overall because it was a very good book and it kept me interested.
