My own adventure Post 9
In the first book that i read, The city of Bones by Cassendra Clare, something intresting that i observed was that she had humans labeled so prententiously. She had the shadow hunters think so lowly of the humans, that they are of no worth. the same thing comes along with my second book, the Alchemist. I seem to have found that many fiction books now a days choose to make up a completly new race, that follow somewhat true theories in the real world. And in all of those books, the humans are either at the bottom or really really close to the bottom, there has not been one book that i have read, that follows this idea, that has the humans at the top. There is always someone or something that is better than the humans in some way or another. I think it is a good idea, because more times than not, there is a human to come into the world and help save whoeveror whatever, and then they gain respect. Now dont get me wrong here, I like that. Most of the books that I read follow that pattern. But they are different because each story has a different plot, they just follow the same ideas. Whether they follow ancient ideas or make up some compleltly on thier own, is the authors choice. I find both of the intresting but when I do read one that follow ancient ways, that of course have true beliefs or ideas behin them, are intresting. I like those because often times i learn things from those books. But then I also like the idea of making up something completly impossible. If they do make something up it challenges me to make me think about stuff. Like Wow? Could this actually happen? You never reakky know. Thats what fnd so intresting about this idea authors have with the human race not knowing about another older race. I also think reading fiction books help me challenge myself to become more open minded. Thats ok if you are a person that likes to live on facts, but i think that the wonder in the thruth is the most fun. You never really know if something that you read in a fiction books is true, thats why i like them so much. They help to take me to another place where unicorns and flying dolphins can happen.
