"Fish in a Tree" Book (REVIEW)
Manage episode 322675336 series 3224604
The book promises to be a "feel-good story" and it delivers. However, it is filled with familiar tropes that it carries on a little too plainly and transparently. The writing is more like a child's picture book rather than a novel. I don't mean in a grammatical sense but rather in the storytelling. Everything is too familiar and despite the book's main message: everyone being a unique individual, it is incredibly unoriginal.
I believe it's possible to tell this story with strength in storytelling and a quality in writing unfortunately not seen here. However... As I mentioned earlier, it does deliver some "feel good." Although they don't necessarily surpass the cringe-worthy moments of predictability and After School Special gone to extreme, there are moments here that do remind me of other perspectives in teaching and in being a student.
Most importantly is the lesson of Perception being Reality and how that can weigh on someone. It's one I needed a reminder about. In conclusion, if you want an Easy and predictable read about a student with academic/behavioural issues that ends with positivity and hope, I guess this could be for you. *No Spoilers*. (REVIEW - WEEK 11, YEAR 4)
