The
last time I got really immersed in a book was in high school when I read a book
called Playing with Fire by Theo Fluery.
This is a book about the life of Theo Fluery from his childhood to his
death. HE was a professional hockey
player who made a lot of bad decisions in his life. In this book he looks back on those decisions
and shares the mistakes he made. The
reason I got really immersed in the book was because it was a real story of
someone who had it all in life and just threw it all down the drain so to
speak. Whenever I picked up the book it
was so hard to stop reading because I felt like I was walking right beside him
in the book. I have read the book
multiple times and I get the same feeling every single time. This book is not fake witch I like, I hate to
read books that are fake stories where authors are trying to portray characters
that are completely unrealistic, I just don’t see the point of those stories. I was truly amazed that he literally told the
reader everything including the many illegal things he did and it was good to
see a person like him open up to the reader.
I don’t know if I could get into a book like I was into this one. I feel like I have known Theo his whole life.
