So instead of doing a normal post about a book I am reading, I have decided to do responses on my classmates'
blog posts that are about the same book I have read. I found a few good posts about Freak the Mighty, so I have decided to do my opinion on them. Sophia's blog post on Freak the mighty was really good. I agreed on a lot of the things.
One thing I like that she said is that **Spoiler Alert** when Freak died at the end, their friendship stayed in Max's heart, which I can totally agree with, and it's a really good observation. I did feel bad for Max when that happened, but I never thought about how friendship could still stay in someone's heart, even when you think it's over. I also agree with what she said about how Freak is a character that's hard to forget. I have to admit, Freak is a very interesting character. A character so small physically but so big in geniocity (I know, it's not a real word, but I couldn't think of a real word that would be good enough to describe him as). Freak practically knows almost every word in the English dictionary, can invent so many cool things from scratch, can name alol of the chemical compositions of a firework during the fourth of July. Come on, tell me he's not unique. Who could ever forget him?
I also like Dia's second blog post on Freak the mighty, how it teaches you a lesson. I never was able to really figure out the author's purpose or lesson in the book, just that it had something to do with friendship. But Dia said that the lesson is that there are two roads in life, and you have to take one, the one you feel safe and secure in, the one you can comfortably walk down. I think this is a really deep thought and I never would of thought of that.
I'm glad I read other peoples' blogs about a book I have read, it helps me think deeper about the book.
