1. The worst thing about being poor, (according to Junior's opinion), is that his family doesn't have enough money to take his dog, Oscar, to the vet.
"He’s really sick, Mom,” I said. “He’s going to die if we don’t take him to the doctor.”
She looked hard at me. And her eyes weren’t dark anymore, so I knew that she was going to tell me the truth. And trust me, there are times when the last thing you want to hear is the truth. “Junior, sweetheart,” Mom said. “I’m sorry, but we don’t have any money for Oscar.”

Answer:
My first distinct memory of reading was in Middle School. I never really got into reading in elementary because I was not interested in the books that the teachers were hand feeding us, but when I got my first library card in 7th grade and I finally got to choose my own books, things changed for me.
One of the first books I read was leisurely was called Maximum Ride by James Patterson. I absolutely loved the book, it was paperback and tucked away in a corner all the way in the back of the children's section. It was like finding a diamond in the rough. Or maybe it was just because the books were organized by last name.
Anyways when I first opened the book and started reading, I noticed that Patterson's narration style was in first person. I felt like I was a part of the story in the ways that he would break the fourth wall and speak to his readers through the characters. It was an incredible experience for me and I got so lost in the book that i had read a third of the way through before realized that I had spent almost an hour in the library.
