Hunters was the first memoir that was presented. It was really intense watching a room cleaning, where the sniper goes in and makes sure that a house is safe. Also, it was good when I heard that the snipers aren't heartless, they realize they are taking someones life, but that could mean saving many other lives. Next was Beyond the Vertical, which was amazing in the fact that the author had created a bunch of new climbs that nobody had ever done before. I really liked the video, in the presentation, that showed some of the incredible climbs that a professional climber can accomplish. Then, No Limits had a lot of interesting facts about the size of Micheal Phelps and how his wingspan is way further than it should be. I also really liked how there was a quote placed in the middle of the presentation that related to the title: "You can't put limits on anything". Out of the Blue helped readers understand the story behind why the football player does the salsa dance every time he gets a touchdown. Some people may wonder why he does that, or think it's weird, but he tells the story as to why he does it which is a really close story to him. The next memoir, Decoded, amazed me when I heard that Jay Z is worth $42 million. As for the presentation, I really liked that the song was embedded in between the lyrics so that you could read them as you heard the song. Finally, the presenter for, The Mechanic's Tale, did a really good job by embedding the video into the slideshow, next to the quote, that way the presenter did not have to switch to the internet to play the video, but instead could play it right from the presentation.
