Narration To Books Tangerine

Paul Fisher sees the world from behind glasses so thick he looks like a bug-eyed alien. But he’s not so blind that he can’t see there are some very unusual things about his family’s new home in Tangerine County, Florida. Where else does a sinkhole swallow the local school, fire burn underground for years, and lightning strike at the same time every day? The chaos is compounded by constant harassment from his football–star brother, and adjusting to life in Tangerine isn’t easy for Paul—until he joins the soccer team at his middle school. With the help of his new teammates, Paul begins to discover what lies beneath the surface of his strange new hometown. And he also gains the courage to face up to some secrets his family has been keeping from him for far too long. In Tangerine, it seems, anything is possible.

Rate Of Books Tangerine

This bbokk is very good because it talk about how people are treated with disabilities....

I don't say this for a lot of books. But this is a very special case.Fuck this book.This piece of shit is an absolute and utter perversion of the English language. If I could give it zero stars I would. Hell, if I could give it two middle fingers I would. Reading this book was like eating chicken shit infected with avian flu, with the writing being the chicken shit and the story being the avian flu. The author evidently tried to write a adult drama about kids friggin bludgeoning each other to

This is actually the best book I've read before, even though I don't read much. I can relate to it a lot, because it's about soccer, and I play it a lot. In this book, Paul Fisher is a young boy who moved from Texas, too Tangerine, Florida. He goes to a school where he can finally play soccer, but then has a conflict because of his impaired vision. That is a whole different part of the story, my favorite part. His parents have been lying to him his whole life about why he has impaired vision.

The sibling conflict in "Tangerine" is raw, heartbreaking, frightening, and maddening. Bloor reveals the pivotal source of the conflict in slow, re-captured memories, until the climax, when the main character, Paul, understands both the past and the present. Bloor wrestles with the past and present throughout the book -- in form and content; at times, he loses command of past-tense and present-tense forms and the sense of timing and narrative flow falls out of whack. Paul's first-person POV

I think the story was funny and sad but cool because Paul played soccer and he thought he was the best goaley in the world. And then Paul moves to a new town call tangerine he meets a new friend Joey and they both play soccer and tangerine middle school. Then a sink hole comes and destroys the school and Paul goes to a new school tangerine middle then he meets new friends and then at the end they Paul's bother and his friend goes to jail for killing pauls friends brother.

3.5 stars -- My book group was scheduled to read Frankenstein, but when I got out the copies they had such a negative reaction that I finally asked them to pick another title from our collection of summer reading books. For what it's worth, they chose this YA novel about a young soccer player with damaged eyesight. _(ツ)_/ TANGERINE isn't a bad book at all. It's well written, and there's a little bit of everything for everyone: Holes-style quirkiness, sports action, humor, plot twists, and

One of the worst books. DO NOT READ!
