Reflections on Point Blank by Anthony Horowitz

PS. This is not my picture.
Hi there. Recently, during the previous reading day, I read a book from the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz named Point Blanc. My thoughts about this book are that this book is, like all the other books, full of suspense, which is why once I start reading an Alex Rider book, I can't put it down. In my opinion, Alex rider is a significant fictional character who always "saves the day". I mostly read for pleasure, and I call Alex Rider books, such as this one, a pleasure. The reason why it is a pleasure, is because it never bores. It does have some intense moments, but that's always the case, especially with this book. This author makes all of his books interesting. I don't know why, but this book is extra-special for me, maybe because it was the most recent one that I read. Maybe it's because it relates to school, and maybe because I am in school, it connects more things, compared with politics, and other things. If you like heroes, suspense, and mystery in a book, then you should seriously consider this book. You may ask, how did you start reading these books? The reason is, in 6th Grade, I needed some suggestions on what to read, that I haven't read yet. So I will give my 6th Grade English teacher credit for introducing me to this series. It was easy for my 6th Grade English teacher to pick me that book, since I mainly don't have a preference on what kind of books to read. To me, most books are interesting.

  2. Well, I got this specific book from Ms. Tabor's classroom library. You can borrow it from her. It's really good.

  3. I like action adventure series, and I have enjoyed the Alex Rider books. I'm a big fan of espionage books, too - and you might enjoy a book like The Hunt For Red October or the Ian Fleming James Bond books. They are both a product of the Cold War, when the Soviet Union was a major threat and there was the fear of spies everywhere.

    I'm glad that you have found a series that you like. We can see if there are other books like this that are as good. I'll see what Mrs. Duncan might recommend.
