Dear Will Leitch,
The book “Catch” is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone that ask to recommend a good book. I love some of the conversations that the main character Tim has with his co-worker Helena. My favorite part is when Tim describes Helena when he walks in to the room for his interview at the plant. Tim and Helena relationship of how mean they are to each other cracks me up. My favorite prank is when Tim sticks, sticky notes Helena disk. I thought the sticky note situation was cute and funny. I like how the story is based on a small town in Illinois and gives readers a taste of what Illinois is like in away. One of the reasons why I picked up this book , is because the story is based on a small town in Illinois and I thought “how cool a story about my state and also the author from the same state”. I think it is awesome to read a book about a story based in the state I live in. I do have a few questions that I had come to mind about that book while reading. Is the story based on your experiences? Did you observe the behavior in the small towns in Illinois in order to write the book? What inspired you to write the book? Have you always been a writer? How many years did you go to school before you wrote your first book? How much dose a writer make off a published book? If you could answer these questions I would greatly appreciate it. Since I have been reading the story I will say I am interested in reading other books you have published. I think you should continue writing amazing book so I can continue reading them.
Sincerely,
JAMIE
