I'm currently reading Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine, I'm almost done with it! If I could ask the author two questions, the first one would be: Can you connect to the book in any way because I would want to know what made him/her want to write the book. The second question would be: Do you like fairy tales because this book is a fairy tale happy ending book. I cannot wait to finish my book! It's quite dandy, you should read it :).
The book I am currently reading is Artemi Fowl The Opal Deception by Eion Colfer. I am currenly on page 149. A question I have for the author is why did you make another one? In the previous book Artemis is brainwashed and the adventures sort of end. Another question I have is how does Artemis defeat fairies with advanced technolgy.
Jdewitt6, where is the setting in your book?
Scat,p.g 35
If i could ask the author of my book two questions on would be why do you put animals on all of your book covers.And the second reason would be why do you right about kids getting into trouble.I think that people like to read the books because some people can relate to it.
drumore2,what is your book about
I am currently reading The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan. If I could ask the author two questions I would ask where he got the idea for this book. Also is this his favorite book that he wrote. I would ask where he got the idea because he just came up with a book about egyptian gods and its a weird topic. I would ask if its his favorite book because its different from his other one and its more interesting.
The book that I am currently reading is the first book in the Cronicles of Narnia series, the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C.S. Lewis. I am almost done with it, about 30 pages left! If I could ask C.S. Lewis two questions, one of them would be: how did you come up with such a fascinating story? I want to know this because the story of the book is so interesting. Did he have a dream? Did he ever experience something like this? My second question would have to be: why did you pick "Narnia" to be the name of the world the children venture into? I want to know this because that's a name/place that I've never even heard of! I really do like the book, and can't wait to find out what happens to the 4 children :)
I am reading The Runaway Dolls by Ann .M. Martin. I am currently on page 35. The two questions I would ask the author is "What made you write this book?" And "Has being an author changed your view of things?" I would ask these questions because I think being an author writing from your own mind can sometimes change the way you look at life.
hpeel2 i have never read an artemis fowl book before are they good?
I am currently reading Twilight by Stephanie Meyer and I am on page 346. 1 question that I would ask the author is 'Why did you choose to write about vampires?' becasue I know that vampires are from old american history. The 2nd question that I would ask the author is 'Why did you make this book so long?' because all of the Twilight series are like 500 pages. I can't wait to finish the book and watch the movie again!!!
jdewitt6,
I love that book AND the movie!
And I completely agree with you on the two questions you selected. Ella Enchanted is such an awesome story, so it'd be cool to find out HOW or WHY Gail Carson Levine wrote the book, and it would also be a cool little fun fact to know if she likes fairy tales since the story is most definitely a fairy tale! Tell me how you liked the book when you're finished with it :)
Hpeel: That is a book i have not yet begun to read.
jdewitt6,
What is your book about?
Jdewitt6: I love that book.
bferguson2 i have seen the movie but i havent read the book are there any differences.
anichols2,
The Twilight Saga books are and ALWAYS will be my favorite book series, but you're right, I've always wondered why Stephanie Myer chose to right about vampires. There's not a lot of pop culture out there that are about vampires, so it'd be pretty neat to find out WHY she chose vampires. :)
aneal2,
Would you like to read this book again?
The Lightnnig Thief, By Rick Riordan.I am currently on page 159.One question I would ask the author is why don't Percy and Annabell ever date or go out. I asked this question be cuase they would seem like the perfect couple. The second question I would ask is why did'nt Zeus have a kid? He would be a great father.
My book is Halo:First Strike, by Eric Nylund. The first thing i would ask is how he was able to expand from the previous book in the franchise, which was writen by another author. I ask this because im interested as to how he was able to keep things together without altering the story. Lastly i ask if he plays halo.
I am currently reading the book The Power of Six by Pittacus Lore and am on page 169. The first question I would ask the auothor would be: Where did you get the idea to write this book? I would ask him this beacuse the whole idea of the story is really weird and unique so I wonder if he thought of it or got an idea from somewhere. The second question I would ask would be: Do you actually believe in all of the alien theroies? At the end of the book under the authors biography, it says that he cannot not be found beacause he was abductuted. I wonder if he truly believe in this story or is just trying to be funny.
BFerguson2,
The chronicals of Narnia is a gret book series. What kind of people would you recomend the book to? Also have you ever read any of the others in the series?
The book im reading is The Pull of the Ocean. By Jean-claude Mourlevat. The first question I would ask would be Why did you name the book the Pull of the Ocean because it doesnt say anything about the ocean. Another question I would ask would be how did you come up with the names of the characters. They are very stange names.
Jdewitt6,
I love that book! It's definantly one of best books I've ever read.
Snetherland5
Nice vocab.
SNetherland5,
Great questions! I heard it is good book.
AHowell,
Yeah that is really weird why they would name it Pull of the Ocean if it's not even about oceans...
anichols2
Best series ever. Ive read it like 3 times.
hpeel: I have neverread that book but now I might,keep reading and tell me how it ends! (:
Bferguson2: That's a great book and movie,hope ya like it :).
I am currently reading The Strange Case of Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger. I am on page 29. If i coiuld ask two the questions the first one would be, How could you think of a story like theis, because it's very strange. My second question would be, Did you write this because it was about a childhood memory, because it seems like you know a lot about middle school. I am reading this book with Sachi and it's realy funny because it's so nerdy. I would reccomend reading this book with an amazing friend like Sachi Pena. I love her.
Im reading The Strange Case of Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger and am on page 29. If i can ask two questions i would want to know Is, Is this from expierience, how did you come up with it? They are very strange stories with a lot of details. My second one would be, How could he come up with all this like the yoda? This is very strange why would he just pick a yoda.I'm reading this with my best friend Kaeleenies:) The book is funny and we just laugh! I love KAELEEN!
spena6
I love reading this book with you. Do you think it's as funny as i think it is?
Kaeleen6
I love reading the book with you what is your favorite part?
jdewitt6
I was there when you got that book, and you were really excited to read it. Do yuo still like it as much as you did then?
jdewitt6
I was there when you got that book, and you were really excited to read it. Do yuo still like it as much as you did then?
Kaeleen6
I do think that it is funny like when he looked like he peed himself!!! LOL
I am currently reading new moon by Stephanie Meyer. I just started on my book so im on page 2. If I could ask two questions I would ask what happens in this book. And two why a vampire and werewolf. because I haven't read the book yet and because it will be hard for Bella to choose between two killers.
I'm currently reading Storm Chasers: In Pursuit of Untamed Skies. By Warren Faidley. If I could ask the Warren Faidley two questions, the first one would be: have you ever actually experienced what your writing about? Because I would want to know what made him want to write such a book. Then the second question would be: Do you like sciance fiction because this book is very interesting to read. you should read it somtimes its in the school library;)
kflanagan6 what is your book about
jdewitt6 you make your book sound very interesting
I am currently reading Breaking Dawn. The author is Stephenie Meyers. And I am on page 333. If i could ask her two questions, they would be how did you think about writing these books and why. I would like to know how she got the inspiration to write these award wining books. And why she thought that they would be great sellers.
jdewitt6,
I saw that movie, not to great.
hpeel2,
you spelled Artemis wrong.
The book I am currently reading is called The Limit by Kristen Landon, and I'm on page 73.
The first question I'd ask is where she got the idea for this book. It is rather wild, and original, and very likable. In all honesty, I could probably never come up with such elaboration. I wish this was a series instead of just one book.
The second question I'd ask is what started the government's move to lock kids away in workhouses if their parents went over the "limit". And why weren't they allowed to choose the choice? The "honey lady" said that the workhouses were choice D.
@jdewitt6
Ella Enchanted was good. ;-;
@hpeel2
If she's brainwashed, then why not make a squeal? It would provide an exit to this "brainwashing" scenario and comfort the reader's cliffhanger-ish troubles.
I'm currently reading Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares and I'm on page 200. If I could ask the author two questions, my first question would be: "What inspired you to write this book and where'd you get the idea I would ask that because she is so detailed about all the girls' lives and I wonder how she even thought of the idea of 4 girl best friends who are brought closer together by a pair of jeans .My second question would be: "Do you have any connection to the girls? For example, did or do you live near them or travel to any of these places?" I'd ask this question because I wonder how she thought of all the places in the book and a little city in Marlyand as their hometown.
jdewitt6, is this one of your favorite fairytale stories? Did you see the movie?
bferguson2, have you read any of the other books in the series? I like your questions and how you asked a few extra questions to make everyone think.
I am currently reading November Blues by Sharon M. Draper. I am on page 250. One question I would ask is "How do you write these amazing novels?" I say this beacause most of her bokks amaze me and they are things that teenagers go through in life like death, teenage pregnancy,etc. Another question I would ask is "Is there some kind of way that you can relate your life to the book?" I ask this question because the book seems so real with lots of detail and it seems like when she wrote she could relate to what's going on.
Npegg2, my sister was reading The Red Pyramind and she said she loved it. Are you liking the book so far and isn't it by Rick Riordan?
Aneal2, the title of your book seems interesting. What is it about so far?
jdewitt6, I Think I will read that book because I saw the movie and it was pretty good.
brialI am curently reading thirst by Christopher Pike and I am on page 437. If I had to ask him any two questions I think I wouold probably ask if the main character Alisa Perne haves another baby and if she finds a new husband? and if she ever finds her true happiness?
I'm currently reading The Midnight Library: Blood and Sand. I am on page 119. The author is Damien Graves. Two questions i would ask him are why does he enjoy writing terrifying tales? Also why does he write short stories?
aneal2 What do you think he will say to your questions?
aneal2 your books are always interesting. Also do u i=enjoy reading those type of books?
jdale2 Why did you decide to read or pick this type of genre?
jdewitt6 i love this book also the movie.
I would ask why he has a whole chapter on two leaves talking about falling for winter. Also I would ask why he has young Bambi witness the death of one of the princes. I am asking these questions because I do not understand why the author included this in the book. I am enjoying my book but I cant wait to start a new one. book: Bambi Author; Felix Salten page:83
@jdewitt6... I saw that book on your mini project, it seems like that is a really good book. After seeing the movie do you recommend it.
I am on page 111 of Fat Kid Rules the World, by K.L. Going. If I could ask Going two questions, I would ask her why she decided to write from a guy’s point of view for her novel. Wouldn’t it be hard to write what boys dislike and like? And what they feel? Throughout the book, Troy feels different feelings about being fat. He always thinks about what would be the consequences of everything he does. Will they laugh? Will they mock me? Another thing I would ask would be why did she write a book from a fat boy’s perspective? I think I would be hard, yet easy. I mean you could write about how self conscience he is and what he would be thinking. But from a fat boy’s perspective…that would be hard? I believe it would be hard to write from a guy’s perspective!
Title: The Lost Hero
Author: Rick Riordan
Page: 426
Two questions i would ask Rick Riordan are; why start the book at a Wilderness School when they go to the Grand Canyon for their field trip? It's a bit like the start of "The Lightning Thief"; when they go to a museum for their field trip. the second is why make Jason the son of Zeus while Percy Jackson is the son of Posiedon? Is the last book of this series going to have another huge war?
@bferguson2
i've watched that series, but never read it. i'll probably start reading that soon
@npegg2
i bet i know how he got that idea, but i'm not sure enough to answer. i have yet to read "The Red Pyramid"...
I just finshed reading "Among The Imposters". The author of my book is Magaret P. Haddix. I currently finished the book. If i could ask the author two questions it would be, Did you always know you were going to be a writer? I ask that because i want to know if she had a passion for it. My second would be, Does she like to read? I ask that because why would she do something that she does not enjoy!
I just finished reading "The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod". The author is Heather Brewer. One question i would ask the author is "why did you make it so boring at times"? i just wish the author put more detail and really put the main problem out there. The second question I wouold ask would be "why didn't the author make the character more interesting?"
Im currently reading trip through the deep woods. Im on page 99. The author is unkmown. If i could ask the author two questions one would be: Why do they include so many strange monsters. Second would be why is it so mysterious.
I am reading extras by Scott Westerfeld and I’m on page 127. The first question I would ask is how did you come up with all of the technologies in the book? I am wondering this because in my book there are many “future” technologies that I would have never thought of before. My other question would be does this book have any connectinos with you because in the book it is about a girl and all her life.
I'm currently reading Girls in Pants The Third Summer of the Sisterhood. I'm currenlty on page 60. The two questions i would ask the author are, what made you want to do a series of friendship? another question is did this happen to you while you were younger? I really like the series i can't wait to finish my book. You should read it sometime it's a great book.

dgillespie5
Why would it matter if your author played halo?
Jdale2:
Why would you ask the author those questions?
Jdewitt6:
Your glog was awesome! It was sad that the video wouldn't play though! :(
the book i currently just finshed reading was called the dragon witch and i forgot the authors name,its about howa girl was convited ofbeing a wwitch and she is sent tio be eaten by a dragon...i would ask the auth0rs has this ever happened to you ?,and i woukld ask how old are you to think of this?....
MRichards5
Are you enjoying your book? How many pages are in the whole book? And who would you recommend it too?
JAMIEDEWITT THAT SOUND LIKE A GOOD STORY.....BOOOOOOOO GLOGSTER ,JK
Tgarrison2 what is your book about
hpeel thats a pretty good book i read it last year
jdewi
your books sound not very interesting.
drumore2
what's your book about?
The book I am currently reading is Wicked by Sara Shepard. It is an amazing book! I am somewhere in the 200's but its chapter 13. I would ask the author Sara Shepard, "Why did you decide to seperate the chapters in 4 for each character?" My second question would be.."Why do you pick the topic of lies, to revolve your book around?"
I am reading Savvy by Ingrid law and I’m on page 28. If I were to ask two questions I would ask, how did you come up with the idea of calling the powers savvy? I would ask because it’s an interesting name. Another question I would ask would be why you named the characters those specific names. I would ask this because who would name a child, Fish, Rocket, gypsy, and Mississippi?
i am reading life, the universe, and every thing (that is the whole title) by douglas adams, and i have just finished the book. the first question i would ask is:why do you spend so mutch time explaining what is going on? because it gets very boring if it goes on to long. the second one would be:were do you come up with the things for it? i mean, a piece of a key to unlock a planet filled with maniacs a robot character's left leg? so obscure, yet so specific. only doug adams can think of thet!
hpeel2: i think my brother read those books. there about greek mythology or something
dbenjamin6: i take it your book's author wrote many books, and it sounds like they are all good.
I have finished reading the third book in The Hunger Games series, Mockinjay, by Suzanne Collins. The first question I would ask her would be what gave her the idea to write such a crazy story. I love the book and it's really good, but the storyline is kind of sad. The second question I would ask her is if she thought that what she wrote about could happen in real life. It seems like it could be other than all the super advanced technology that they have.
jdewitt6, Did they make a movie on that, or was that something else?...
anichols2, I saw the movies, but there are some parts in it that you have to read the book to understand. I'm going to read them and watch the movies again.
jdewitt my sister said that is a very good book!
anichols2 I read that book and i thought that this book was to much for me i cant not follow the story line well.
My book is So B. It by Sarah Weeks and i just finished it. The two questions i would ask are why she chose Reno to be where Heidi,Mama and Bernie live, and why she dedcided to have Heidis mother die in the end.
@Jdewitt6,
It sounds good!
I have just finished reading Switched by R.L. Stine. If I could ask the author two questions I would ask what gave him the idea to write this book. Which is about two girls who switch bodies, but Nicole the main character realizes her friend Lucy murdered everyone she cared about so she tries to find her in hope of switching bodies again. I would also ask the author why he likes to make Horror books more then anything other genre. The book was very descriptive and I enjoyed reading it.
JDale2, The title of your book sounds so mysteries, are you enjoying it?
The book I am reading is November Blues by Sharon Draper and I just finished the book. If I could ask the author two questions they would be "can you actually relate to your books?" and "what inspired you to write books about problems that real teens go through?" I would ask her these questions because her books really show how some teens struggle as a child but do everything they can to make something of there life.
amanibusan6,
What is your book about it sounds pretty interesting?
khaldeman2,
Your book sounds very good. Are you enjoying reading it so far?
The book I just finished reading was called Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. It was 391 pages long. One of the questions I would ask the author is where she got the inspiration to write the book. The book is very creative and different, and I would not be able to come up with such an amazing story. I would also ask her what it is like to have written such a popular book. The series is extremely popular right now. For writing such a popular book, she must feel really proud. The book was amazing, and it leaves you in suspense after every chapter.
jdewitt6,
Isn't Ella Enchanted a movie too?
npegg2,
That book sounds interesting!
I am currently reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix by J.K. Rowling and I am on page four hundred and twenty two. If I could ask J.K. Rowling any two questions, first I would ask her why she is making the Ministry of Magic turn against Dumbledore. I would ask her this because it just causes annoyance and more questions. Secondly, I would ask her why she put Ron Weasly on the Quidditch team. Ron is only doing terribly and now they probably cannot compete any longer against the rest of the houses because Harry and George (Ron's brother) have been kicked off the team.
jdewitt6, I agree that Ella Enchanted is quite dandy. Also, I haven't read the book, but I imagine that it's as enchanting as the movie.
msimons6, I agree with your question about vampire and werewolves. It doesn't appeal to me as a good book when she adds werewolves on top of vampires.
I just finished The Book of Time. The author is Guilianne Prevost. One question I would ask the author is how did she come up with this topic to write about. I would ask this because the topic (time traveling)is very intresting and exciting topic. My second question would be how many books is she going to make in her series, because her books are very fun, and they always leave you with a cliffhanger.
@bferguson Are the Narnia books like the movie?
@npegg2 Where did you get your book from? Rick Riordan is one of my favorite authors.
I am currently reading Tangerine. The author is Edward Bloor. I am currently on page 127.One question that I could ask the author is, why in the book did you say their was fire burning underneath the school? Because the book didn't have anything to do with it. Second question is what is the reason for lightning striking in the same place at the same time? I think the book could have done with out it.Hope you and me enjoy this book.
I never got very into that book. The beginning was to boring for me.@hpeel2
@jdewitt6 I have never read Ella Enchanted, but it sounds like really good book to read.
I'am currently reading worth by A.Lafaye. I'm on page 125. I would ask her why did she write this book.I would ask her does this book relate to you. I would ask these questions because this book is really good and fascinating.
Scottr5,
That book was crazy because teenagers were dying.
kwilliams2,
Your first word didn't make any since :>(
I'm currently reading The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. I'm currently on page 537. The first question would be what was your inspiration for writing the series because it's a very original and complex idea. The second would be how long does it take you to research for a book. This is because the books are based off Greek mythology and many of the myths he writes about are accurate.
@hpeel2
I heard that's a good book
@drumore2
who wrote your book
Book:Son of Neptune
Author: Rick Riordan
Page:finished
If I were to ask the author of my book two questions I would ask him are: what gave you the idea to write this book? and When will you continue the series? I would ask him what gave him the idea to write this book for the simple fact that it is a brilliant book and very factual in regards to the actual mythology of the Greeks and Romans in their pre-Christianity era. I would ask the author when the next book in the series will be written because I enjoy the books that Rick Riordan writes, they are entertaining and extremelly enjoyable to read. Those are the two questions I would ask the author of the Son of Neptune.
DRumore2:
Does your book have to do with animals; if so, that would explain why the author put an animal on the cover.
DRumore2:
Does your book have to do with animals; if so, that would explain why the author put an animal on the cover.
SLaw5:
I always wanted to read that series, are they any good?
I'm currently reading Flawed Dogs by Berkeley Breathed. I am currently on page 3.I started today. If I could ask the author two questions, the first one would be did you draw pictures which is in the book? And the other question is where did you get that interesting ideas about this book.
anichols2, I really like twilight!But when I read twilight,actually felt kind of boring middle of the storyt. Because there's a lot of
explanation and details about what's going on. But it doesn't mean that I don't like this book or something.It's just my opinion :)
tgarrison2, I've saw that as a movie. It was pretty interesting. I think I should try to read that book someday. But I think
it would be pretty thick, though.
I'm currently reading Through the Hidden Door by Rosemary Wells. I'm on page 58. My first question did Snowy ever get new glasses? In the library when he was searching for the type of bone the dog found he didn't have glasses yet so he couldn't read a thing. Then in chapter five Barney was saying how he could picture Snowy in the library reading tons of books or something, so did I miss it? My seconds question is, I remember reading that Snowy's roomate was a freshman, will we see more of him in the book as it goes along or was he just a slight side character to kinda of transition scenes?
jdewitt6, did you see the movie Ella Enchanted? I own it and I like it a lot, if you havent't seen it you should check it out sometime! :)
bferguson2, I love Narnia! I wish there was an actual Narnia and that I could go there, but sadly I don't have a wardrobe in my house. :(
I'm reading The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan. And i am on page 367.
Question 1: What was in your mind when you made up this whole story about another side of Egypt. Thw whoole thing about there being the house of life and such.
Question 2: Did this book flow easily when you were writng it.
Hpeel2,Make another what? Also you forgot to add a question mark at the end of the last question.
Jdewitt6, I saw that movie! The movie is so funny !
jdewitt6, Ella Enchanted is also a great movie.
bferguson2, i like how you explained why you asked those two question.
Jdewitt6, have you seen the movie, if so which one do you think is better?
I'm currently reading World War II Heros by Allan Zullo. I'm on page 32. If I were to ask two questions, the first one I would ask is how he can change the information from the WWII heros into narrative but true is. The second question I would ask why he would do it on a most intresting topic as WWII. I ask these questions because the book is very heroic and intresting.
@hpeel2
I heard that book is good
@kflanagan6
That book is hilarious
My book is Breaking Dawn by Stephinie Meyer im on page 420. I would ask the author are there going to be anymore twilight books because her books are really good. Also I would ask why did you make jacob imprint on who he imprinted on its weird. I dont understand it. But her books are great i dont want to stop reading there so good.
jdewitt6 i have seen the movie i bet the book is way better though
hpeel2 i read one of those books there good
Hpeel2
That is an amazing book hope you like it
Npegg2
That book is really good
Mainly because it's written by the da astir author Rick riordan
I am currently readin Island of the Aunts, by Eva Ibbotson. I am currently on page 11 and I would ask her where she got her inspiration to write this book. For the second question, I would ask her if she did indeed get an inspiration, then where she got it from. I would ask those questions because even though I've only read 11 pages of the book, I like it very much. If I could ask a third question, I would ask her if she would like to write a second book to this book and make it a series.
hpeel2, that is a great book. I finished in about three days.
tfried2, the title of your book and the authors name is kind of odd.
@ Jdale2- I like the way you had nice question that made sence. :)
@ anichols2- Its weird... but i am always asking myself why authors write about vampires also.
I am reading Old Yeller. The author is Fred Gipson. The page that I am on is page 25. The question I would my author is what enspired you to right this book? Was it a hit when it came out?
jdewitt6 comment is very good.
hpeel has good questions for his author.
I am currently reading Breaking Dawn. The author is Stephanie Meyer. I am on page 456. If I could ask the author 2 questions one would be, how'd you come up the idea to write about vampires? The second question would be, how'd you come up with enough information to create four books that were based on her dream. I want to know these because it would help me understand her logic.
jdewwit6: that sounds like a good book.. I love the movie(:
hpeel2: that sounds really good.
code talkers
where did the insperation come from? why did you write code talkers?
Title:Traitors Author:Andrew Sniden p.126 why did you write this book? and what was your inspiration? Because i would really like to write a book like this one.
hpeel2 I have read a lot of the Artemis Fowl book but not that one.
bferguson2 I read the first chronicles of Narnia and they were really good.
Title: Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix
Author: J.K. Rowling
Page #: 781
First, I would ask the author what Sturgis Podmore has to do with the book.He is mentioned a few times but I dont see any connections.
Another question I would ask is about Professor Umbridge. Why would she betray the minister and send dementors after Harry? I wonder this because she is so strict and in line with the ministry and 'rules.'
npegg2;
Another question I would ask is why he always writes about the gods.
tgarrison2;
thats an awesome book I loved reading it.
