There are several aspects of matter and light, as well as the composition of minerals that make up brick and glass respectively, that can explain the reason for reflectivity. However, all complex explanations set aside, it all comes down to one fundamental concept: a brick wall, is not a mirror.
amsw2. A mirror, provided it is smooth to below the wavelength of light, will reflect the light in the same way you can see a water wave be reflected from a wall.
all three.
When light bounces of a shiny surface, such as a mirror, this is called specular reflection.(Diffuse reflection is when light bounces of a rough surface, such as a wall. You can tell it's a rough surface because you can't see your reflection.)

=The reason you can't see into a brick wall because light rays are reflected in many directions from the uneven surface.=

The image is reflected from a reflective object, in this case [your mirror], as a Book is not a mirror, it is not reflected.

You are able to see yourself in a mirror because the light rays are reflected 180 degrees back at you. A mirror image can be considered a light print of you. Mirrors that are not just flat surfaces will reflect light at different angles.
Light 'bouncing' off the subject is reflected back by the mirror.
You see it when your image strikes light and the light bounces off you then off the mirror to your eyes.
Light is reflected off your face, and hits the mirror. The light then reflects off the mirror back to your eyes.
