On the Devil''s court

Authors note: I wrote this essay to show how much I liked the book and to analyze it.

Shot! swish, another shot and swish then the lights went of and it got all misty. That is one of my favorite parts in my book, one of the reason I chose On the Devil’s court as my book. In this book I can also relate to quite a few thing, one of the few reason is the basketball in the story, that really made me like it more.

In addition one of the things I related to in this fine story is the first game (Joe) the main character, played in. The main reason that I relate to this is when I played in my first travel basketball game and had a descent game. On the other hand I can not quite say anything about this because I have never played in a High school game so I do not how hard it is.

Secondly In this book not only me but also my team can relate to when we went on a 9 win-- 0 loss run last season.  equally important is the reason why we would not relate to this 24-0 season is because this year my team started 0-6 in very great. yet another thing that my team and I are not very familiar with is the state tournament. Are first year in that is this year and, in the book that academy had a chance at the tournament because of a 24-0 record.

Finally the most exiting part was towards the end when the academy pulled of a huge upset on Loyola a big school in the state finals. It feels great when you are a part of a winning team, and sometime even I know how it feels to win a big game,like when we won the Lake Geneva tournament in fifth grade, it was the first time are team had won a championship.

“On the Devil’s court” a great book. hopefully you will read it. This book was a good choice for me because of its genre, and how many times I could relate to the chapter and a couple characters. some of the book is very interesting, at least tome and maybe to lots of other people too.
