readers response
Currently, i am reading a book called Ball Don't Lie. This book is about a teenage boy named Sticky. He is a basketball lover. He loves to play basketball and goes to a local recreation center that many other kids would go to, to play intense and competitive basketball. Personally, i picked this book because i am a basketball player as well and i love to play it. I was influenced to pick this book as well when i saw that many other famous basketball players viewed it and gave it great reviews. After reading the opening chapter, i was more open to reading more of the book. It made feel content and the auther was able to change perspectives various times, so i can see how it would be to be poor or maybe even steal like the main character, Sticky. I can re;ate to the book because i know how it is when you love and are addicted to basketball, it changes your life in certain ways, that people who dont like basketball, would'nt understand.
