BR 2-03: Roommates

He's worried about college, about a million different things.(p. 4)
 

 The main character, Bobby Harris is a business student at Brenton. He is going to college for the first time. Unfortunately, his roommate, Ash Browing is so untidy, lazy and vain. He always finds fault with Bobby. What is worse, Bobby's campus life is getting worse and worse. For example, because Ash snores very loudly while sleeping, Bobby can't sleep well. This makes Bobby more sleepy all day. He comes to often fall asleep during his class, and then his teacher scolds him again and again.. Furthermore, while he is working part-time, he spills hot oil all over the kichen floor because he is almost asleep. However, after that, something surprising happens.  If you want to know more about this story, please read this book!

 If I go abroad to study, my roommate in a dormitory may be incompatible with me. Then, I have to handle the person in English, so I should get the ability to speak English fluently.

BR 2-02: A Horse Named Seabiscuit

Something was wrong with Seabiscuit.(p. 5)

 This story is not a fiction. Seabiscuit is a horse, whose grandfather was a great racehorse. He should have been a champion too, but he was a big disappointment. His style was not for racehorses. In over 35 races, he had never won. However, after one horse trainer, Tom Smith trained Seabiscuit, an eye-opener happened in his first big race. Although nobody except for Tom Smith thought Seabiscuit could win, he did win. That day was only the beginning.  If you want to know more about his success, please read this book!

I don't know about horse and horse races, but after reading this book, I was so impressed. It is true that Seabiscuit was great, but his trainer, Tom Smith was also great. Without Tom, Seabiscuit would never have won. I wish I could watch Seabiscuit gallop in a race...

BR 2-01: Brainstorm

You are a scientist. You make and use nanobots. (p.1)


 If there were nanobots which can fix sick and damaged cells, I think almost all deseases would be cured. However, in this story, the nanobots can lead to problems depending on its reader's choices.
 Firstly, when I try to save a man who has brain cancer, the nanobots multiply out of control inside his brain. And what is worse.....  It's going to be a surprise!

 This book is in the Atama-ii books series. The most distinctive feature of this series is that its reader can choose the plot, which is exciting. This book 'Brainstorm' is so interesting. I recommend that everyone read this book.
