Relation Toward Books The Knife That Killed Me

Paul Vanderman could be at any normal high school where bullies, girls, and annoying teachers are just part of life. But “normal” doesn’t apply when it comes to the school’s biggest bully, Roth—a twisted and threatening thug with an evil agenda.

When Paul ends up delivering a message from Roth to the leader of a gang at a nearby school, it fuels a rivalry with immediate consequences. Paul attempts to distance himself from the feud, but somehow Roth keeps finding reasons for him to stick around. Then one day Roth hands him a knife. And even though Paul is scared, he has never felt so powerful.

Discuss Regarding Books The Knife That Killed Me

The Knife That Killed Me, by Anthony Mcgowan is a pretty good book. It deals with high school drama and situations that could possibly happen in real life, from bullying to peer preassure and even love. It is an easy read, that any high school student can comprehend. Now Paul (the main character) is just another face that you see in a hallway that you don't remember. The school (how I think of it) seemed like a pretty bad school, besides the cliques/groups, the teachers were weird and mean and

(This is my first Goodreads review) Paul just can't fit in. He lives in a school that begets violence, and with teachers that for the most part, have lost their passion amidst all the ferocity and academic apathy. All of the school cliques share different interests than him. And he dwells in a home with parents who are kind, but can't give their son the attention and feeling of belonging that he yearns for (and what teen doesn't respect their parents, unless they're some badass warriors?) That

I thought that the book was amazingly suspenseful. The only part that I didn't like in the book was that it didn't have the ending that I expected. At the end the bad guy was still alive while the good person, Shane died, and Paul the main character got arrested because he was the person who killed Shane accidentally when he turned around with the knife and thought it was the enemy so he stabbed him and Shane died. It wasn't a good ending for me because I still wonder how Roth, who started all

This book is about a High School student, called Paul Varderman, and how his life got mixed up to those of a gang. At first, Part described hating the school's gang leader, Roth, with the most infinite hate. Afterwards, when Paul stands up for himself to Roth, you see Roth suddenly being interested in Paul. Throughout the rest of the book, you listen to Paul's thoughts and you find out that he is between feeling respected and feeling disgusted since he was Roth's "mate". At the end of the book,

Paul is your typical, middle of the road, middle of the pack, Catholic Comp student. This makes him an easy target for the sadistic school bully Roth. His usual MO is keep your head down, ignore them, and theyll move on. However, one day Roth turns the table and incorporates Paul into one of his evil plans. Paul soon finds himself caught between a rock and a hard place, when Roth gives him a knife for safe keeping. He must choose whether to do the right thing and risk becoming ostracized again

Rating TBA. Or not... still haven't decided on this one yet.This review is going to be short and punch you in the stomach and make you think deeply about your life and morals and.things. What a coinkydink because that's exactly what this book does!Actually, ummm OK, no, this review is probably just going to be short.Its kind of because of spoilers but mostly its because Im not 100% sure whether I absolutely loved this book or absolutely hated it.This book is brutal and I love brutal books. Some

According to KnifeCrimes.Org, a charity, supported by a.o. the UK Home Office, A knife incident happens every 25 minutes - 4 in 5 offenders aged between 12 years - 20 years and a third of victims aged between 10 years - 17 years. With more and more children and teenagers carrying a knife when going to school, Anthony McGowans third novel seems to be a sign of the times, a warning as well as a message. Almost completely devoid of all of the humor and wit that was characteristic of Henry Tumour,
