The conflict of the story is that the dictator state of Nazi Germany, had broken the pact with the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941. The reason for this is that Hitler set war on both sides, France, and the Soviet Union. The Nazi invaded France first resulting in a victory. The Nazi might've been defeated earlier than when it did before invading France successfully.

The setting of the book is when Korea was conquered by the Japanese. The place is where Hashima Island was located in. The author helps me imagine this setting because the characters in the story talk about Joseon, not Korea. I can understand that the time was long ago when Korea was colonized by Japan.

# data[].attributes.body
I rate it 4 stars because it is about lives of Koreans that are captured by Japanese to work in Hashima Island.

I would recommend this to a friend that likes history or war because it is mostly about it. The book is about characters who are trying to escape Hashima Island, and many die. One of the characters, called Tae-bok, wants to meet his son, Ji-sang. The son begins to travel and leaves his wife. He successfully meets his father and the story ends with a happy ending.

In the story, Greg's dad has woken him up for breakfast. Greg doesn't wake up and just decides to sleep. His dad gets super cranky and screams at him, "WAKE UP!!!". Greg had a solution. When his dad woke him up, he'd take all of his blankets and to go the heater vent, and lay on top of it. The problem was, the heat stayed until 5 minutes at a time, so when the heater wasn't running, he'd freeze. After that, once his mom is almost finished with her shower, he'd get her mom's bathrobe that she got in Christmas from the closet. Greg thought it was the smartest move ever, and he liked it so much that he even wore it after HIS showers too.

The main character is Greg, and he goes to a swimming academy that his dad thinks is best for him for the whole summer vacation. Greg ends up not liking it, and he does not participate in swimming by doing a very clever action. First, he does a few laps along the swimming pool. Then, he asks the teacher if he could go to the bathroom. He goes to the bathroom and stays there for the rest of practice and never comes out. Yet, there is a small problem to that, and it is that Greg gets super cold in the bathroom, so he wraps himself up with toilet paper to avoid hypothermia. If the teacher finds out, what will he do? If I was Greg, I would actually just do the practices because I would not want to get a cold or hypothermia.

After the practices, Greg's brother, Rodrick, comes to pick him up in his band van, and he would be 30 minutes late. Also, Rodrick never lets Greg sit in the front because the chlorine would "ruin" his seat. So, Greg sits in the back and apparently it has no seats and has all of Rodrick's band - related stuff, and Greg would have to squeeze in to the back so that he doesn't get killed by the band drums.

After a boring summer break, Greg heads back to school. The kids at school were all screaming for some reason, and the reason is because Greg had forgot that he had the CHEESE TOUCH from last year. He was very unhappy, and nobody would get close to him, but a new student was there, and that kind of fixed the problem for him. Now that the new student has the CHEESE TOUCH, nobody would go near him.

If I was Greg, I would feel the same thing too. It would be embarrassing for me because people would know that I have the cheese touch. I would actually not give the cheese touch to the new student, I would pass it on to another student instead, so he would feel embarrassed too.

The main characters that are in this book are Greg and Rowley. They are both friends and they spend time together a lot. They go to middle school and their moods are very normal; they spend time with family and friends and act just like normal. They also look like very normal kids. Greg is just a skinny boy who wears black pants and a white shirt. He also has 3 lines of hair though. Rowley looks very cool. He has a white shirt and a black pant (which is also the same clothing as Greg), and he has 2 front teeth popping out of his mouth, and he has some hair.

I am comparing Greg to his older brother Rodrick. Greg is similar to Rodrick because they both like music. They are also different from each other because Greg hates doing activities in the summer, but Rodrick loves to go play with his band team.
