Peter is finished with Chew on This: Everything You Don't Want to Know About Fast Food
I am currently finished with this book and I am already disgusted with this food industry. It's very disturbing to hear what goes on in the inside of those factories and kitchens in fast food restaurants. Honestly I don't even think that I can call them kitchens, but more like a factory workline with underpaid workers and very low quality and cheap food.

After reading up to this part in the book I am completely disgusted by which the standards of fast food cooking are. I can't even call it cooking anymore. The part with all the meat glue inside the chicken nuggets is completly gross and don't even get me started with the bugs in the strawberry shake.

I'm currently reading the part on how the chickens and cows are all round up to turn into burgers and other fast food goodies. It's very appalling to hear how these animals are tortured, thrown and killed for the sake of our enjoyment. Reading this book is very persuasive for someone that is on the brink between living healthy or eating unwell.

I am currently reading this book and it starts off about talking about the history of food and McDonald's. I also found out that people were afraid of burgers because people used to poison them. I currently like reading this book.

This book is very historical and provides good insight on the camacache war. This book is the definite example of a good historical fiction book. At about this point the son Quanah is introduced in the book. Quanah is a warrior who is to help fight in the war. I will continue to read to see what his decision is.

To be honest this book starts off pretty slow with all the biography and random facts but I believe that this is important info that I need to know before starting to go further into the book. I hope that the book gets more interesting and more suspenseful or at least more action.

Peter is starting Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History
I have not started this book yet because I just finished with my last book "The Feed". I have this book and will start it in the next day or to. I picked this book, not only because I had it, but because books like this keep me interested. I plan to be hooked on this book for a while.

Peter is finished with Feed
I am now finished with this book and I've been very pleased with it. The one thing that got me was the surprising ending that kept you guessing. The book ends on a note with Violet dying and Titus obeying the commands of a commercial for the blue jean warehouse that ends with double-meaning phrase "Everything Must Go" which was the thing that got me guessing.

This book gets a little boring at times but I will admit that this book is really interesting. When Titan and the girl make the team you can tell that the book foreshadows their love and some jealousy but you can see their friendship in order to defeat the feed and bring everyone back to sanity.

At this point the book rambles on about how the feed has malfunctioned them and how Titus is falling for violet while his ex has to stand around and listen to all the noise that Titus is saying about violet. I have a feeling if Titus and his ex makes up then they and violet can team up together to help stop the feed and from it getting bigger and bigger until it reaches max power.

The book has gotten real suspenseful after they have had the chips implanted into them already. The book does start off pretty slow but it gets pretty intense after all the action starts. I will continue to read this book.

I'm only a few chapters into this book and I am already starting to like it. I'm surprised on how fast the plot goes and at some points its hard to keep up. If you are interested in technology then this book is for you providing you common knowledge through a dystopian novel. I am very pleased with this book and I plan to enjoy reading more.

Peter is finished with The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
I'm currently done with this book and i have been satisfied reading it. I'm glad that the librarian recommended this book because it interested me because of the science and the relation of the virus towards other people and the most dangerous thing is that the virus can morph to anything.

Peter is on page 299 of 352 of The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
Im almost done with the book I and starting to get a lot more interesting. They tell about a 10 year old danish boy who has developed a new strain of a dangerous type of ebola and its a new strain too. The scary thing about that is it can affect anyone even an innocent young boy.

There hasn't been a lot changing in this book and its starting to get a little boring. For the last 3 chapters its just been random facts repeating them over and over again. I'm planning on skipping a little of these pages if they don't get interesting fast.

Peter
Peter is on page 244 of 352 of The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
The book signifies how scary and common it it to catch such a complex creature that can completely destroy you. It doesn't matter who the person is, from 10 to 100, it causes harm to everyone and infects all types of people, so that scary thing is that you never know if it will affect you or your neighbor. The complexity of this virus causes it to travel through the air instead of contact with mucus.

Peter
Peter is on page 116 of 352 of The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
This book relates a lot of its facts to science and biology. Ive noticed that a lot of these viruses are named after the first host of the infection. The government is starting to step in a little because of the massive toll of deaths that have been taking place. The scientists are shocked to find that the virus spreads through the air causing the government to step into to stop the global infestation.

This book the hot zone had been very terryfying. Its crazy how these scientists risk their lives to help find vaccines for all these biological chemicals. After reading the part about Nancy Jaxx its been hard to realize how scary it is to work in the level 4 room of things containing the anthrax and Ebola viruses. It also makes me feel bad for the people infected by this horrible virus.

I am on page 126 on Are You really going eat that. the book has so far been interesting. I am liking this writing style because of his very descriptive details. I like it really when he puts a lot of insight into is writing such as explaining the chobrito and the raw oysters paired with the rare cooked burger.

Im on page 116 of Are you really going to eat that. The book has uncovered many ways to find destinations and sometimes the author gets really lucky when he goes to the indian food place or gets some raw oysters which interested me the most. It talked about how we should take the risk of eating raw oysters or rare hamburgers for the taste and the flavor rather than be scared of some virus.

Im on page 57 on Are you really going to eat that. So far the book has gone into some insight about all the exotic foods jumping straight to the point. I like how it does that and it just adds on from there. I am looking forward to reading the whole book.
