Summary: Go and get a copy!
Review: I was assigned this book to read as part of my English class and didn't think I was going to like it. But it's a 'once started, can't put down' kind of book. I've never read anything else like it. It involves a group of boys who are stranded and have to live for themselves, and the realisation that paradise is not what it seems. It's a great book, go and get a copy!

Summary: The Lord of the Flies
Review: I thought this book was good and it was exciting. I like the way the author describes the characters in the story. I also like how you read the book you can picture everything. I like how the boys start their own government and they have a leader. His name is Ralph. They all just want to have fun but the littleuns don't listen to the older ones like Ralph and Jack. Then every one starts turning on every one. Ralph and Jack are arguing and the littleuns just swim and play never help with anything. Jack is starting paint his face with different colors while he hunts. Then he kills a pig. Ralph wants Jack to make shelters and Jack wants hunt so they start fighting and Jack takes a group of kids and he has a tribe. Jack and his tribe kill some of Ralph's tribe. It's a very good book you will have to see what happens to Ralph.

Summary: The Lord of the Flies
Review: "The Lord of the Flies" The Lord of the Flies is a really great book. I was assigned to read this in my reading class. Some other people thought it was to big of a book, which had very small words, so they changed their books to "Tanning the Star Runner", which was about the same as my book, but they had a lot bigger words. About the story, it is about a bunch of kids and they got into a wreck, and they all landed on an island. They all spilt up and went their different ways. The main characters are, Ralph, Jake, Simon, and Piggy. Ralph took the little boys known as the "Littluns". Jake took the older boys because they knew how to hunt better than the littluns did. Piggy went with Ralph only because Jake didn't like him. When they all got to get rescued Jake took all the credit for everything and for the responsibility of everyone there.

Summary: Review of Lord of the Flies
Review: Lord of the Flies is a novel of drama that is set on an uninhabited island during World War Two. Ralph, a boy elected the leader of a group of boys who were stranded on this island, has to solve problems for them. Conflicts between the characters of this book will keep a potential reader of this good novel will keep a reader wanting to read on until they finish the book. This is what happened to me when I was reading this classic novel by William Golding. Lord of the Flies is a good book for middle school students because to an elementary reader the book just wouldn't make sense. I recommend this book for potential readers and buyers.

Summary: Just another day on planet earth.
Review: A terrific book, which works on many levels. I've read reviews that twitter on about the psychology of young males and so on, as if adults - and women, for that matter - would act any differently. I don't think so. We see events like those that occur in Lord Of The Flies every day. In many ways, it can be read as a study in power. We have Ralph, who does not seek power - is perhaps not truly suited to it - but has it thrust upon him. Piggy, who has the intelligence to lead well, but not the public appeal. And Jack, who wants power purely for power's sake. He sees it as his birthright, and even though he recognises his own failings, will not except anyone else as leader above himself. Ralph, it turns out, has the makings of a good leader, but it is the Might of Jack that crushes the Right of Piggy and Ralph, to the detriment of the entire community. Sounds much like the day-to-day politics of almost every Western country, doesn't it? As I said, some people see Lord of the Flies as an abstract study of the psychology of young males in an extreme situation. I see it as an example of everyday life in the history of mankind.

Summary: Lord of the Flies
Review: I have recently went through the extremely torturous chore of reading this novel in my eleventh grade English class. I hated this book so much that I went up to my teacher and told her exactly what I thought of this abysmal piece of work. Guess who wasn't too happy. I've heard so many great things about this book, so I just couldn't wait to start it. "Yeah, Lord of the Flies, great!" From the first page, I hated it. This book is so hard to follow. I read a page. Then I think to myself "What the heck was that?" I read the page again and only got a vague impression of what was going on and struggling to figure out what William Golding was trying to get across to the reader. Sure its possible to figure it out, but how can you really enjoy a novel if you have to strain your brain to be able to get the badly told story into your mind and keep it there. I disliked this book so much that I removed the cover and glued it on upside down before I gave it back to my teacher.

Summary: Golding at his Greatest
Review: Golding certainly seems to root out the very psychology that lays behind the rudimentary world of the male youth. In magnificently eloquent prose and a deeply engrossing story to boot, Lord of the Flies has deservedly been dubbed a modern classic. One can relate to the actions of the characters simply because we were all once of that age and were all once driven by the same urges, impulses, and emotions that Golding so graphically and yet so effectively illustrates. An essential read there can be no doubt......
