Reader's Journal
The book Unbroken really changed the way I think about my own life, and how I think about other people around me. First of all it changed the way I think mainly because of the theme, it shows that in life you cant give up for what you believe in by the things that happened throughout the book, he was tortured, abused, and tossed around like not being human. And that right there just shows that whatever life has to throw at you, it can be rebounded and fixed. Second of all it changed the way I think about other people in my life because of Phil, hes one of those best friends to Louis that really does show how friendships can get you through things; throughout the book Phil & Louis were treated pretty much the same and they both were able to work around it in the same order. It shows how friends can really make a huge impact on your life in the long run. I believe another reader that were to read Unbroken would feel the same way, because if you think about it this book was made to impact lives, there's multiple different themes that can be commenced into one; and there's so many references that happen in everyday life to many individuals that can relate to the book and really be impressed on how they were able to get around anything that was thrown at them during the book. I never felt so much adrenaline while reading a book, it made me get out of my comfort zone after seeing all the treacherous things that Louis and Phil went through, even in the beginning; the differences aren't sorted throughout the entire book until the end when they recover successfully and are able to help others out. The experience that was provided during this book is really un-explainable, reading the book shows how much torture and disrespect that life can have, and there's always ways around it. Lastly if you are looking to read a book that will really impact your life, I'd personally recommend Unbroken to anyone, it was written by an author that is extraordinary and it's based on real facts and phone interviews with the real people that the book is about, and personally I don't enjoy reading but this book made me enjoy reading; so If it can impact me with my reading capabilities it can impact absolutely anyone!
