For the first marking period I decided to chose the non-fiction book Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. This book is about why the outliers, people who stand out from everyone else, are so different and how they got that way. Malcolm explains why most good hockey plays are born in the winter, why Asians are so smart, and much more. I selected this book, because my English teacher from last year read my class an excerpt from the book, and I found it very appealing. I enjoy learning new things and like how Malcolm explains why things are with his research. By reading this book, I hope to learn to look at success in a different way and gain appreciation for non-fiction.
