Lone Survivor Final Update

I really enjoyed reading the book, Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrell. It was very interesting to learn about the training he had to go through to become a SEAL and to see what the battle was like through the eyes of one of the soldiers. Reading this for pleasure was much different than reading the assigned books. I was able to read the book when I wanted, rather than when I am told to read it. Also, I found it way easier to get through the book and more enjoyable to read the book without having to analyze quotes. Even though I didn't analyze quotes, I did do a good job of keeping character development and identifying the theme. Also, I was happy that I kept up with the reading by myself. In the future, I think I need to work on making connections to other texts while reading and identifying literary elements while reading. Overall, I really enjoyed reading Lone Survivor and could not put it down. I also really enjoyed reading a book for pleasure rather than an assigned book.
