reading response part 2 The Invention of Hugo Carbet


                This book wasn’t much different from the movie. I can say that Hugo had a stronger or you can say a bolder personality. The book didn’t change much from the movie, basically the only difference was that you were able to know what some characters were thinking. I think that the fact that the book was made was great. I can almost say it is better than the movie. I can’t say that the book was better was because the movie was way more visually appealing.
            A difference from the movie was the character thoughts. One thing that happened in the book and movie a lot was Hugo almost getting caught and Hugo getting caught. In the movie you weren’t able to know what Hugo was thinking nor were you able to know what any of the other characters were thinking. I remember in the movie, at the beginning, Hugo tried to steal a toy and almost got cought, then he ran and hid in a vent, Hugo was sweating and closing his eyes. That same scene came up in the beginning of the book, but this time Hugo was thinking that they would probably capture him and take him to a foster home. The book was being much more detailed and telling the reader what exactly Hugo was thinking.I think that books overall are more detailed and clear than movies.
            In conclusion, the book, The Invention of Hugo Carbet was indeed good and predictable only because I watched the movie. I was actually pretty interested in reading the book. Hugo would always think what he would do after getting in trouble. He would think what all the other people would say then he would say to himself no one cares about me. This was one of the reasons why I liked this book. Hugo was a smart boy, That knew how to survive sort of on his own.
