Post 3- Book 1 Project


What would happen if the only world you knew was 11x11ft? All you had was a small kitchen, bed and wardrobe you had to sleep in every night to avoid and old man who you've never seen but brings you Sunday treats. Strange right? But as we all know it wasn't for Jack...it was his whole world.

 To be a part of this adventure you must be able to follow and solve multiple clues found all around the room. Jack needs your help to escape there are clues all around the room to help you figure out the code on the pad lock, you'll be doing different tasks that are required on the clue cards in order to find the next clue. Good Luck! This is how you will begin:

So in this game you can’t mess up one wrong number typed in the door code an alarm will go off and Old Nick will know someone's trying to escape, once he knows he'll change the code and you'll be stuck in The Room forever! This game gives fans an idea of the suspense that jack and Ma went through in the room for all those years. This game would bring in multiple age groups and even people who haven't read the book who after may be persuaded to now that they have experienced and have gotten to played the Room Game. This game by promoting Room will encourage others to read other books written by the author.

post 2- What is a book?


A book is a story- no an adventure- a place where your imagination comes alive. In books anything could happen, you go places never before imagined, and you follow the characters on their voyage. It’s a journey something new around every corner and the more you read the more you discover in terms of your interests.

  So in class we have been talking about these authors opinions on how e-readers don’t even compare to the all-powerful book……. But then there’s the other side where e-readers are the best thing ever and books are a thing of the past. To be completely honest I am totally indecisive on my feelings on the topic. I believe both sides of the debate have valid points and then again some extreme points. So first of all here is my opinion; the story is the same no matter whether it’s on an e-reader or a hardback.

 You can get so lost and caught up in the story and you’re not paying attention to the physicality of the book. While I do prefer physical books I do read off of my ipad a lot, This is because its cheaper, easily accessed, and you can get it on the spot. Although I don’t know what it is but I like to have the physical copy of the book in my hand ……. Once you have bought and read your digital book its pretty much useless, but with a book you can loan it out, sell it, and you have many more uses after you've read it. So in my opinion well I prefer a hard back compared to an e-reader the story is all the same and there will be no difference in the satisfactory of the story in the end.
