The Wave

December 8th, 2016

If we are using the old system: 2-3/5 stars. While the book is short (138 pages) and meets the requirements for readability for a 17/18 year old, it didn’t strike me as a book that would be interesting for incoming first year students to read. It was fairly predictable and slow at times. I think asking first year students to read this may come across as “preachy” (since there is a clear lesson attached to the story).

 

LSEM could easily discuss this book, but I don’t see it being a robust conversation.
