Anniliation



In my own opinion Annihilation is a great read for anyone to get invested into.
The main topic I would like to talk about throughout the book that caught my attention
was the environment along with it’s fantastic and immersive design. The environment
looks plagued and infected with colorful algae and plants. My own experience with this was how
I felt that there was a connection with the environment along with the characters. The forests are
full of life but I felt intimidated when it turns night within this immersive world because danger
lurks within the shadows. My perspective was that the environment during the day felt mysterious,
interesting, and impactful while at night it’s more menacing, fearful, and dangerous.
This impacts my point of view with the book because the environment within this story portrays
a huge factor with characters and their interactions with the environment and it’s creatures.
It has an uneasy feeling for my own point of view because it’s pretty and colorful in one instance
and later on it turns into something far more dark and sinister. The world of Area X along with
the shimmer is all impacted by the environment which  makes me think how much does this
environment impact it’s characters both good and bad. It makes me ask how can such an environment
cause such an effect. Also my partake on the work is that it’s highly immersive and impactful to
anyone who experiences Area X, shimmer, and just the environment. Also I think it’s really
interesting and scientifically fascinating that Area X along with the entire environment changes
and alters all DNA within the world. It explains the beasts, mutations, and alterations to how
life looks within this interesting environment. I think this was a great idea that the writer has
with this execution of DNA alterations and impacts on not just people and characters but the
entire environment full of new life and possibilities.

The Martian

In this novel The Martian I observed and analyzed the unique situation of Mark Watney of being stranded on Mars from a terrible sandstorm while his crew flew off. I think in my opinion the reader is engaged and interested all the way through since most of it is based on Mark and his experience on surviving on Mars while trying to find a way back home to Earth. What I analyzed from this book was how Mark used some farming techniques from Earth on Mars that works and ensures his survival for a while. The book makes the reader think about how he/she would survive if he/she was in Mark’s situation and it creates a way of problem solving. The problem solving would relate to his survival and communication with NASA but the same would relate to the reader if the reader though about how he/she would survive on their own in the wild but even another planet to myself is far fetched for survival. Also my idea with this book as an observation would be how there is a sense of strategy with the sur...

BloodChild

When I read the short story Bloodchild I was really interested and fascinated by how two species can work together in good and bad way in my opinion. The first species that assists the other one are called the terrans and the other is known as the Tlic however the Tlic co-depends on the terrans. One part of this story that I observed and analyzed was the topic of slavery essentially in this short story. I observed how slavery was needed in this story in order for the Tlic species to survive but in my opinon I feel like the terrans should have recieved something in return for thier services towards the Tlic. I also took away from my own experience with this story that the Tlic need a terran host in order to reproduce their own species and survive. What I found to be quite interesting was how this story depends on the dependecy of another species and the meaning behind that relates to slavery but also survival in my opinion. Furthermore, I found it to be saddening to see that one species...

Star Wars A New Hope

What I found interesting with Star Wars A New Hope is how the story can relate in a way to society in my opinion. The galactic empire in the story would be in my opinion relatable to a corrupted society that is turned into a dystopia that rules over the people. On the other hand the rebel alliance in society from the reader’s point of view would be the people that would resist against a corrupt government that rules with absolute power and authority. As I observe Star Wars more and more it dives deep into who can be good or bad in society and what defines a person for what he/she stands for. I observed that the rebels stand for freedom and democracy while the empire stands for control and power. In this story it revolves around Luke Skywalker as a beacon of hope and with the sith lord Darth Vader being the antagonist  they both fight for opposite reasons. I analyzed that Luke represents himself as a leader of democracy and freedom while Vader represents himself as a tyrant of tyra...
