Wounded was one of the books that I thought would have things that would be too boring to read-but I was wrong. Wounded brings into a life of a boy who has a parent in the was of Afghanistan. It really tells you the story how just normal people who's parents aren't in the military just don't get it. How hard it can be if a death has been reported, injuries, and just how their doing. So the main character Marcus's dad is in the war of Afghanistan- Special Forces, about one of the most dangerous
