Hello and welcome to the life of Mina Hamilton! Sucks to be Me is about a girl named Mina Hamilton, who is the protagonist of the book has to decide wether or not she wants to be a vampire.
I am at the commence of the book and this book is exceptional. I love how the author, Kimberly Pauley, writes her book and how it seems like she is actually Mina in reality. I can find literary devices throughout the book. I am at the exposition. Some of the literary devices I found in the book were on page 6 where a literation was used. A literation is a represantation of a sound using letter. In this case, the literation used here is when Serena says “wassup!”. Another literary device used is forshadowing on page 15. Now that I have shown some examples of some literary devices, I am going to talk more about the characters and there personality.
Mina Hamilton, the main character, and protagonist, is a out going girl and very down to earth. She can sometimes have some attitude but deep down, she is very kind and respectful. Some of the secondary characters are her parents, Serena, and Nathan. Mina’s parents are vampires. They seem like any parent; thinking about their child, also concious of their decisions, and overall being good parents. Serena, the closest friend of the protagonist, always loves a different personality. It lists on page 7 that she has a personality change about every couple of months. At the part that I am at she is going through her gothic stage. Mina says that she also had a Christina Aguilera stage which was disturbing. Last but not least Nathan! Like every average girl, vampire or not, they have a crush. And for Mina, Nathan is a long life crush fantasy. When she is around him, she has an inability to talk in complete sentences. She also adds in that he probably thinks that she has a speech impediment. Now that I have explained a lot about the characters, let me talk to you about the book.
Mina, has been around vampires all her life ( her parents are vampires), but when the vampire council discovers that her house has a non vampire living in it, the council lets her decide if she wants to become a vampire. She can’t tell her friend anything about her situations because Serena doesn’t know her parents are vampires. With all this confusion she also has to worry about school! How can she also concenrate on the crush of her life, Nathan? What will be the decision she will make? Read the book to find out!
If you don’t want to wait that long, wait for next week to find more about the book…. Sucks to be Me!
