His Dark Materials (The Golden Compass)
Philip Pullman
Review:
This was one of the books on my 100 book list. I don’t know; it was not my favorite. I did not feel very connected to the character, and some parts were kind of dull. I think the concept was interesting, but I don’t think it aged well. It defines got better throughout the book. I am still not sure what happened to Roger. Did he die? And it was weird that she thought her dad was her uncle. I thought it was more of a children’s book, but it got pretty dark. Also, why were her parents making out at the end of the book so weird? I don’t know how to pronounce the pet things, but I think that was my favorite part.
