The Pull of Gravity by Gae Polisner is a very good book. It is a very inspirational story about two friends go on a journey to find their dead best friends' dad, to deliver a very expensive book (Of Mice and Men), from his son Scooter wants to give him. Nick and Jaycee start off as good friends. After one of their best friends, Scooter, dies from Progeria, they are determined to find his dad Guy Reyland. The level of determination and courage these two friends have is amazing. You really can't find any friends like that anymore. I read this as part of my English class along with "Of Mice and Men". My favorite major part is when Nick and Jaycee find out about Nick's dad and Scooter's mom, MaeLynn, being together at the restaurant. The Pull Of Gravity by Gae Polisner was assigned to my English 10 class by our teacher and we were told to find similarities between that and Of Mice And Mice, before we started The Pull Of Gravity we had just got done reading Of Mice And Men. The Pull Of Gravity is about two friends Nick and Jaycee that go on a whirlwind adventure trying to help out their dying friend the Scoot, the Scoot has progeria and is dying from it so he wants Nick and Jaycee to find his dad and give him a signed first edition Of Mice And Men. The intended audience for this book is young adults. I'd say it fits with the audience very nicely cause the whole story follows two teenagers around as they unravel a mystery. I think the book was alright but I'm not really into books like that. But overall I would recommend the book to friends.
What do You think about Der Sog Der Schwerkraft (2014)?
Definitiv meine Art vo Buch: lustig und traurig, trottelig und clever, banal und tiefgründig.

I think this one would have broad appeal in middle school. Good story.
