pressing problem

The most pressing problem the main character has at this point in the story is just to survive. My book is Prisoner B-3087, the main characters name is Yanek Gruener, his most pressing problem in the story is to survive. Yanek also knew that he had to work hard but not to much that the Nazis would notice him but not so little that they would shoot him for not working hard enough. Yanek was so close to becoming a Muselmann, which is a person that doesn't have enough strength to get up, from not have enough to eat. Yanek is nothing but skin and bones. That's Yanek's most pressing problem at this point in the story.

like and dislike about my book

The book I am reading now is Prisoner B-3087. Its about a boy named Yanek Gruener, who talks about all the concentration camps that he went to and all the bad things the Nazis have done. The one thing I like about the book is that it describes the settings really good. It makes it feel like I am there. The only thing I really don't like about the book is it tells you how Jews are killed on the streets, beaten, and even eaten by dogs. But other than that I really enjoy this book.

How does the setting affect what is happening in this book?

The setting in King of the Wind, affects what is happening in my book because it really helps me out with picturing the setting. The setting in the book is way back in the day when they used horses to travel. The author really decides the setting and how she decides it helps with the plot of the story. The setting really affects what is happening in the story because when Agba and Sham travel it talks about what they have to go through to get to the next place.
