    I choose this book because the story grabbed my attention. I like the idea of seeing someone's else life is and get to see what they go through. I haven't read this book before. I think this book is a window. I relate in some ways. Like to protect my siblings, but other than that I do not.

    I chose this book because I like more of the creepy stories. This book is more of a window then a mirror. It's more of a mirror because it's about two brothers who go through a lot of stuff. I can relate to some of the things happening in the book. I can relate to wanting to protect my sibling and making sure they are okay.

    I chose this book because it catches my interest in things like death mysteries and revenge. I think this book is more of a mirror on my hometown and what goes on with my family and the losses of loved ones.

    I chose this book because when I looked at the video review i had an interest in it after hearing what it was about, especially because it is in poem form. I think this story to me is more of a window story since i can not really relate to it. The only thing I can relate to is how I am in regards to keeping my siblings safe.

    I chose this book because I feel that gun violence is an issue and will always be an issue as long as guns exist. It's especially sad when a child or teen is exposed to weapons and violence and is ripped away from their innocence. This story is a "Window"looking in on the life of another person.
