Why this Book was for Me

Peak was a great book for me because it was a little higher than my level so it gave me the chance to challenge myself.

Theme Part. 3

Peak learned that he was always being held back from the things he loved. He learned that he was being walked all over. Plus his parents always depended on him to either take care of his twin sisters.

Peak always in a way made a fool of himself because he always listened to anything. But at the end he found that in himself and told himself to become a strong person.
