I am reading Hunted: Fake ID by Walter Sorrells. I am currently reading on page 50. Hunted: Fake ID is a mystery and I am planning on doing a glogster as my mini-project for the second nine weeks. I think I am going to do the glogster because it has a lot of creativity needed for it and I've got it! I am also really skilled on the computer so I can try and make it good. In my book there is this girl, who doesn't really have a name but she goes by Chass, and her mom.They are running and hiding, and have been since "Chass" can remember, from something of which Chass doesn't know. I say the girl, Chass, doesn't really have a name because ever since she can remember her name has been fake. When her and her mother go into a new town they both change their names. Right now Chass is in the middle of trying to find her mother.Her mother left after she and Chass got in a fight and didn't return for the next few days.

I books title is...Bad Girls Don't Die.The author of my book is Katie Alender. The page t hat i am currently on is...25. This book's genre is Mystery. This book is so far about, a girl who's life turns around when weird things start happening in the main characters house. The lights start flickering on and off, the doors start opening when a second before they were closed. Her sister, named Kasey, is a doll- crazy collector. This becomes a problem when the main characters enemy calls her sister abusive. The reason why is because her sister is so doll-collector crazy that she didn't want people touching her dolls but the enemies sister did! And the main characters sister punched her when she did it. She isn't abusive and charges didn't get pressed on her when she broke her arm but it was a pretty bad case because the girl who's hand got broken, is so traumatized, that she won't talk to anyone except for her sister. It's like, like, she is being controlled by kasey.

They recruit some rabbits to join them on there journey and they leave before the danger comes to their warren. They face many challenges on their journey and then several things go wrong when they make a new warren. I am going to do the character emails to represent the main conflict of having to leave the warren.

The book I just finished is called The Return of Buddy Bush by Sheila P. Moses. This book was historical fiction it was about a man named Buddy bush who the whites were looking for. They were looking for him because a white lady claimed he raped her even though he didn't. The main character Pattie Mae goes to Harlem because that's where Buddy is supposed to be at. Once she gets there she finds Buddy and persuades him to come back down south. Buddy listens to Pattie Mae and comes back home. He goes on trial with the white men but both of them are acquitted. At the end of the book Buddy decides that he wants to go back to Harlem and his family never hears from him again. This is also based on a true story.

I'm reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince By: J.K. Rowling. The genre of the book is Fantasy and I am on page 156. The book (so far) is about Harry trying to get use to being called "The Chosen One" and how he finds out some disturbing things about one of his classmates. Also he has to be watched since Voldemort is trying to kill him. I'm probably going to do a Soundtrack because I like music.

My book is called "HELEN KELLER. A Life." The author is Dorothy Herrmann and I'm on page 30. This book is about the famous Helen Keller who was blind and deaf. It tells about her family and the people she has meet. Helen Keller was mute but she grew out of it. I plan on doing a symbol in a bag because this book has a lot of objects that Helen feels.

I am reading the same book. It is very boring.
The book i am reading is called Shiver. The auhor is Maggie Stiefvater, the genre is fantasy, and i am on page 10. Shiver is about a girl named Grace who falls in love with a werewolf named Sam. But with Sam being a werewolf, it is hard to stay together. This book is all about them trying to stay together. I plan to do the charachter email between sam and Grace because sam and grace are in a relationship and it will be easy fo them to email.

My book is about a girl who discovers homeless cats by accident. These four cats cause so much mayhem and may ruin two other people's futures. I'm going to do the book soundtrack. I want to do this specific mini project because I listen to music all day anyways so I mind as well do it for a grade. Also, I dont want to so a mini project that i will have to present just quite yet. I would rather do Glogsters for my next two books.

It didn't really look like you knew what you were doing on Friday, but hopefully it turns out good.
