Compare/ Contrast Reading In Class Activity

Compared to " The Tipping Point " by Gladwell, I normally read more upbeat books. While reading to enjoy my time , I tend to stick to teenage novels. One of my favorite books is " The Lovely Bones" , which was recently made into a movie. The difference between these two books is that " The Lovely Bones " is a beginning to end story, while " The Tipping Point " is broken up into chapters that differ in subject. When done with " The Lovely Bones " I felt that I was walking away knowing one detailed story that I could tell others about. After reading " The Tipping Point " , I believe that I will be able to tell many smaller stories and be able to back them up with examples from the book. Because trends seem to come and go so quickly, you never stop to think about where they began and where they will end. While " The Tipping Point " is not a book that I would normally read , I would hope that after reading it I will be able to understand these small life processes that may normally go un-noticed.
