4th Quarter into- Ship Breaker

This time around I was searching the "read for a lifetime" shelf at my school and I saw an attractive cover that got my attention. I picked up the book and read the few reviews that were on the back and I decided to get it. This book's name is "Ship Breaker" by Paolo Bacigalupi. The reason i picked this book was because the way it was described it seemed to be a futuristic survival after the earth has turned for the worse with the crash of the economy and ecosystem. Nailer is the name of the main character of this book. Nailer must face one of the hardest decisions of his life when a clipper ship crashes on the shore after a hurricane, he has to decide to whether to scrap the ship or saves its passenger.
