Rate:10

Letters to a Young Brotha is about helping you make good choices. It’s by Hill Harper and he is mostly an actor on CSI New York. I think Hill is not one of the stuck-up actors because he says that money is not everything. Although I like money, I kind of have to agree with him. Most actors spend millions on cars, trucks, and SUVs, but Hill said he drives a twenty-two year-old car that’s worth only two thousand dollars. He also said the only thing you should get a loan for is college. Also, if you have enough money then you should get a car, but you should not have to get a loan for an expensive car. Hill said he regrets some things, and said some things you shouldn’t do. He made some mistakes like shooting his brother’s eye. He did things in college which he regrets because he got a disease from a girl, but the doctors got rid of it. He included this because we have all made mistakes.
I like the book, it was good. My favorite part was when he talked about the things you shouldn’t do, because now I know not to do bad things. Everyone is going to do something wrong in their life, but now I know not to get a loan or don’t buy anything unless we can pay for it right away. The rating to this book would be a ten because it was awesome. I recommend this book because you will learn from it.

  2. You're right Isaiah, and we all know that people make mistakes but sometimes it feels good to know that you are not alone. Our parents tell us to make good decisions, but never tell us of their mistakes so it's comforting when someone like Hill can tell us of his bad decisions in life and from there we are able to learn from them!

  3. Nice Job Isaiah:) Hill really was true about money, and it sounded like a really good book. The fact that it was not only memoir, but some facat, and some personality as well. A perfect mix! And waht kind of genre of book was this, a biography, or auto-biography, or something else?
    I also liked all the advice he seemed to have wrote about in his book, and it sounds like you are set for life Isaiah:)
