5 4 3 2 1 on Hacking Harvard #1

5 Comments 
- At first , they are talking about the one of there action hacking into harvard. And it sound pretty intense
- A lot of big words in this book. More than any book i read so far.
- It seem like they are doing stuff that they will go to jail for.
- There is 3 character which is Max Kim ( Korean ) , Eric and Schwarz. They are the master mind behind this.
- Schwarz seem like cowardly person because he was scare of everything they did. Well probably because he is a geek type of person.

4 Questions
- Why are they hacking ? Is there any goal they try to achieve behind this?
- What are they trying to find here? 
- Since there is like 3 people in the crew. Which one is the main character or they are all main?
- Is Max Kim in high school or college? There wasn't many description there about it.

3 Vocabulary
- Comprehensively - of large scope; covering or involving much; inclusive
- Snickered- To utter a partly stifled laugh
- Imposing - very impressive because of great size, stately appearance, dignity, elegance,

2 Literary Terms 
- Indirect Characterization  - In the first chapter, Schwarz was describe many time that he was too afraid or too scare of something and worry way too much. So i think they are trying to say that he is a coward. That is just what i think.
- Metaphor - Since they were hacking, they couldn't talk too much or else it will cost alot of noise so they always use code names and words. i guess that count as metaphor.

1 Overview 
- The crew Max Kim, Schwarz , Eric Roth were hacking in harvard and they were describing the rules of hacking into sound such what you need to do when you are getting caught or what you do when something happen. So they were hacking into the teacher office which i think, they plan out all the thing they need to do and all the security routine and time. So far this book is good.
