I read a book written by Elizabeth Laird.
Anita who is a heroine in this story want to be an actor. One day, she was spotted and recruited as an actress. Today, she has to go movie studio at 10 o'clock to be an actress. She asked her friend Dan to take to movie studio. He got a new car and he can drive very well.
Dan loves Anita, so he sees her while he drives. He makes a lot of blunder. For example, taking the wrong way, going into airport by his car, losting his way etc... Only their sentences, he looks stupid driver. However he shows great driving technique. For example, avoiding traffic jam, crossing foot bridge by car, driving with only two wheels etc...
One movie director sees his driving, and he decides to let him appear the action movie as a stunt driver. 'Incidentally', Anita appears this movie with Dan.
It' funny story, and I like this story. I think Anita has a very good friend. I like driving a car, too. However, I can't drive like Dan. At most, I can avoid traffic jam in only area I know. Right from the beginning, if I drive a new car, I drive carefully... Dan can drive in airport and onto a foot bridge. Moreover, he said that he can drive off the roof of a buidling and in a river. I'm sure he is crazy! I can't drive such places. Right from the beginning, I don't want to drive such places... I want to drive safely!

Hi Kouki,
返信削除This book review isn't entirely original, that is, in your own words, is it?
Please let me know.
Cheers, PB
I'm sorry. Most of this book review was copy of a book. I rewrote.
返信削除Thanks for letting me know that you rewrote this post, Kouki.
返信削除As I explained a while ago on a similar post on another blog, "I really want to hear less of book contents, and more of reviewers' opinions. I certainly don't want reviewers to spoil the endings of stories by giving them away before I read the stories myself" (BR 2-08: The Ugly Duckling, comment 1, 2010.12.11).
Please make certain that no other posts on your blog contain copied passages. That is, not unless they are short, clearly marked as quotations, and followed by references to the original pages or posts from which they come, like my comment from Niina's blog (above).
Cheers, PB
