Blog #4

I am reading Manhunt by James L. Swanson. Manhunt is about Abraham Lincoln's killer and how he was hunted down. The story took place over a 12 day span. 


What stands out to me is how detailed the book is. And how much information the author was able to present. And how accurate the accounts are. Turning first hand accounts into a story and trying to keep it interesting is difficult. And how James L. Swanson gives the characters life. 

Goals i have for reading to be able to stay with the deadline. I tend to fall behind on my reading and say ill make it up the following day. I did that this weekend and I had to read all sunday just to catch up. So hopefully I won;t make that mistake again.
