Ship Breaker recommendations

I chose this book for a couple of reasons. The main reason is a lot of my friends where reading the book, they all said they enjoyed it or found it entertaining, so I decided to try it. I have found with other types of media, if my friends like it, I will probably enjoy it also, like with television or movies, which shows how powerful recommendation is. The second reason I picked this book is I enjoy just reading or watching the beginning of any type of entertainment and deciding based on the beginning if I will enjoy the rest of the book or movie. With this book I found in the first couple of chapters, it was filled with intense action and suspense. I would recommend this book to people who are up for adventure. This book is filled with the life of a boy who lives a life of stress and one day finds something amazing. I think People who enjoy the water or boats will also like this book because its all about boats and the ocean. If you decide to get this book I hope you enjoy it. I have included some different things that take place underwater, like a real underwater hotel as well as an underwater civilization from Star Wars.

Ship Breaker attention grabber

The following selection comes from chapter four; I really enjoyed this selection because of the intensity and action in this chapter. In this chapter Nailer was under water in a sunken boat looking for anything that could make some money. However one of the people in his group, Sloth, trapped him in the boat, and he thought he would lose his life. In this part of the text he has managed to escape from the boat and is coming out of the water. This part of the text it is really descriptive, and shows him coming out of the water barly alive. I hope you enjoy this passage, I have also included two versions of the cover for your enjoyment.

He blasted into open air.

Nailer's stomach dropped out of him. Free fall. Involuntarily, his eyes opened. Stinging oil and scalding sun. A mirror bright ocean, almost white with its intensity. Blue waves rushed up to meet him. He had only a second to twist—

He smashed into water. Sea salt swallowed him. The surge and swell of an oily sea. The roll of breakers. Nailer surged upward, kicking for the surface. Broke out into sunlight and waves, gasping. He sucked air, flooding his lungs with shining clean oxygen, starved for all the life he’d been sure he’d lost.
