The book i am reading at the time is called Hope Was Here by, Joan Bauer. The page I am on is page 48. The conections I have made with my book are she has to move so much and so do I. Also she is learnig how to grow up and be mature like everyone in real life. The book is realistic fiction which means that it is going to have real life situations.

The wimpy kid dairy on page 23 the author is Jeff Kinney, and his talking about his child hood. How school going. Who is the bully? What girl he likes and his family.

gparent5 said...

My book is Rules by: Cynthia Lord I am currently on page 60. Currently in my book it is going in depth on how David Is autistic and what autism is. It relates to my own life, because one of my family members is autistic but they don’t live with me I Gainesville. Its good to read this book because now I know what he has to go threw with kids teasing him all of the time and what his parents have to go threw with dealing with their son being autistic. This is a great book so far and I hope somebody else reads it so they can enjoy it as much as I have.

The book I am reading is “The Eleventh Plague” by Jeff Hirsch. I am currently on page 45. Connections I have found are me and the main character both have outgoing personalities and need things to be exciting. Also the main character has a very curious mind that sometimes gets him into trouble. I have a lot of other connections with this book which is just yet another reason why I love it.

kcarnes5 said...

@gparent5
sound like a good book

kcarnes5 said...

@nbrown5
that was weak

llambert6 said...

I'm on page 270 in my book, "The Lost Hero" by Rick Riordan. A connection between my life and this book is that the girl, Piper, has special memories with her family that she misses. This is because she doesn't live where she used to anymore. I have the same problem. I don't live on Long Island anymore, and so all the memories of family time in New York can never happen again.

llambert6 said...

@gparent5
Very full response, and right amount of sentences.

llambert6 said...

@nhamilton2
Could have been more descriptive, needs more details.

fgoetz2 said...

The book i am reading is called a Long Way from Chicaco, by Richard Peck. I am on page 72. Me and Joey ( my character in the book) both have real life connections by us being mature at certain times. we are also both obervant as well. I am feeling better reading my book, more interesting and less hillbilly talk.

fgoetz2 said...

llambert6

I am sorry you missed the old place you lived. >_>

fgoetz2 said...

nhamilton2

I agree, you do need more information about what you have to do in life.

I am reading The help by Kathryn Stockett. Right now i am on page 107.Currently in my book Skeeter is trying to get Aibleen to tell her experience and how she feels about being a maid (the help).Aibeleen doesnt want to do this because it could cause her to lose her job. That relates to me because sometimes in life you have to make tough decisions.

awilson6 said...

irivera wow you are a fast reader.

awilson6 said...

llambert6 that book seems like a good book. Hope you enjoy it.

smwilliams2 said...

The book I am currently reading is Secrets, Lies, and Algebra by Wendy Lichtman. Tess the main character loves math, it is her favorite subject, until she starts Algebra. Math happens to be my favorite subject as well because there is only one right answer. Now in algebra there is such thing as DNE a.k.a. does not exist, now she is mad and so am I. The reason for this is that you can pick from the answer your teacher taught you or “DNE.”

smw said...

mlayne2 said...

I am reading Tender by Valerie Hobbs. The main charcter is Liv. I am on page 25. I can relate myself to this book is that my friend lost her mother when she was born to like Liv. It is really sad to lose someone you love but never knew.

I just started the book Bird by Angela Johnson.The connection I got is a personal one. The book includes a real conflict like she is a runaway and I have been hearing a lot about people running away. The character has been through a lot. I have also been through tough times which is why I can relate.

LMiller2 said...

I am currently reading Alfred Kropp by Rick Yancey. I am on page 150 and I am enjoying it very much. I believe that this book kind of connects to me be because oh how he doesn’t like school. Also he plays football and wants his driver’s license like me. And so far there a lot of things that are the unalike me and the book like the magical sword in it.

Boost, by Kathy Mackel. I am on page 75.

A connection is that well the main character and i both have a raging passion for the sport of basketball. I love it and it's pretty much all I do in free time. Both of us also have experienced the farm life and have delt with sheep and cattle. The last thing is that my aunt has also been into the hospital and i had to take care of her house. Me and Savvy have alot in common and i can really relate to this book. Im going to LOVE this book!

MVang5 said...

Right now I am reading The Pale Assassin. The author of this book is Patricia Elliott. I am currently on page 17. A connection I found between me and the book is that she is a teenage girl who is just like most teen age these days. Also I found out she is out to go survive and that there is no place for her in her home country which I found is just like me because when I was a kid I thought I was the most unique kid ever and there is no kid like me.

MVang5 said...

ADavis2 i feel like that book is a twin of your life atm.

SSorgi5 said...

I am currently reading Schooled by Gordon Korman. The main character Capricorn has just got sent to his first public school. He knows absolutely nothing about “public” school. I was removed from my school I had been going to for two years straight. I was put in a school that I had no clue where anything was at my new school. I also knew only about two people who went there.

AKinney5 said...

I am currently finished with my book, Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard. The book is basically about four friends who have been spit apart because of the anonymous death of their best friend, Alison De laurentiis from seventh grade. But, there is an anonymous texter, texting every single one of the four four friends about secrets that only Alison would know. Here's the question, who could "A" be? is Alison still alive?

mflippen6 said...

The book I'm reading is The Looking Glass Wars, by Frank Beddor. I am currently on page 232 and I am almost finished with the book. One connection I have made with the main character, is that the original book Alice in Wonderland, is very juvenile. The book I'm reading is really good, but I have a lot of trouble making connections. (That connection is from about 10 chapters ago.)

mflippen6 said...

ttaylor5 The Hunger Games is really good. Have you seen the movie?

mflippen6 said...

gparent5 I agree, it seems people with mental disabilities are treated as second class citizens. Did you hear about the teenager who got kicked off the plane because he had down syndrome?

cdayawon-bobbitt5 said...

I'm currently reading 'witch and wizard' by: James Patterson. I am on page 92. The main character(s) Wisty, has an older brother (whit). I also have an older brother. That is a real life connection I have with the book and my life.

Another connection I have with another character is we are both girls. A connection I also have with the oldest character is we both have younger siblings.

jjones6 said...

I am reading TroubleTwisters by Garth Nix and Sean William. Right now i'm on page 117. I am really enjoying this book. The connection I found between myself and Jack, (1 of 2 main characters)is that we both find it hard to make a decision on a lot of things. We are also very cautious, not only for ourselves but the sake of others. I still need to find out who the antagonist is.

rhale6 said...

I am reading " I Know What You Did Last Summer" by Lois Ducan and I'm also on page 109. When Barry and Julie ran over the kid on the bicycle. Then drove away to the nearest phone. They didn't want to go to jail and obviously didn't want the kid in pain. It relates to me very well because i have definitely been in situations where you have no clue what to do in the terrible situation.

Rhale6 said...

@ asantacroce I have also done horseback riding as a kid and really enjoyed it.

Rhale6 said...

@jphan2 That sounds like a really good book. Good job on your blog as well.

dreynolds6 said...

The book I'm reading is the Hardy Boys by Franklin W. Dixon. I'm currently on page 40. I can relate to the Boys because their friend helps them with a lot of their troubles and confusion. Plus he gives them a lot of tips. Also in my troubles in real life my friends help me with my troubles.

dreynolds6 said...

@gparent I think I read a book similar to that COOL.

dreynolds6 said...

@akinney I love Sherlock holmes

nluna6 said...

I am currently reading The Clique by Lisi Harrison,and I am on page 12 (i just got a new book) . I can relate this book because i have been with a group of friends. I have had a relative come over and having to cancel your plans to be with them but at the end of the day actually do enjoy their company. This is not a mystery group, however its a good girl drama book.

nluna6 said...

zbauer5 said...

I am reading Freefall by Ariela Anhalt and I am on page 71. One of the characters named Russel is clumsy kind of like me. The book is about people in college that jump off cliffs to join a swim team. I don't like much about this book, it's really boring and slow. The plot doesnt get very good until around page 60.

zbauer5 said...

tnichola6
I liked reading the giver

zbauer5 said...

grenfroe6
That book doesnt seem like its realistic fiction

KAduBrempong2 said...

The book I am reading I Bystander it has a lot related to my life.I really love the book.The author of the book is James Preller and I have heard a lot about him.I am done with the book and I hope to get another book written by him.This book is now one of my favourite books.

KAduBrempong2 said...

KAduBrempong2 said...

I can't wait to read that book it must be amasing.

dblair6 said...

The book I am reading is Chasing Lincolns killer by James Swanson. I am on page 49 chapter 3.The main character of my book is John Wilkes Booth. Even though I didn’t kill a president John and I can still relate. When john wants something he goes after it with all of his strength and I try to do the same.

dblair6 said...

IRivera tell me how ten miles away from normal is. it sounds interesting

dblair6 said...

kcarnes5 my friend told the book is good

twithers5 said...

The book I am reading is Killer Pizza the Slice. The author is Greg Taylor and i am currently on page 42. The connection betwen the book and i is that the main character is Toby he is 14 just like me. He is athletic and have potential to be an all A student but just doesn't put forth a lot of effort. That is why i am enjoying this book because i can make a lot of connections with it and it is full of action.

twithers5 said...

@ gparent that sounds like a sad book, but great post

twithers5 said...

@ kcarnes fantastic post, you did a good job explaining and that sounds just like you.

eyakel6 said...

In the book that i am reading i have discoverd that my softball experiences are almost the same as Jennie Finches experiences during her softball career. I am reading Throw Like a Girl by Jennie Finch. I am on page 103 and so far i am learning so much about what she had to go through to get to were she is now. The book talks about all her stuggles as a kid and some of her stuggles are almost the exact same as mine. This book has really helped me dream big and has helped me understand how to deal with difficult decisions.

Dmcknight2 said...

I am reading the book bystander.The author is James Prellar. Im on page 100. I made a connection where we both are serious about the friends we chose. I think also the people we are friends with can change us to be really good or really bad. The book is realistic fiction so it's kind of like real life.

Dmcknight2 said...

KAduBrempong2 I am reading the same book it is very interesting.

Dmcknight2 said...

Sfreer2 that book sounds interesting.

eyakel6 said...

@irivera

Great job on being specific on how you are related to the book that you are reading.

eyakel6 said...

@nhamilton2

The book that you are reading sound like it is interesting and it is cool that you can relate to it in a personal way.

mruvio6 said...

I’m on page 105 of the Runaway By: Wendelin Van Draanen. The connection I have found with my book and my current life is that the main character Holly keeps a journal. I used to have a journal that I would write in not every day but occasionally like her. Sometimes she will write in her journal maybe one to three times a day then go a week or so without writing in it. So far I am loving this book.

mruvio6 said...

IRivera I can also relate to that book because I have a younger sister also.

mruvio6 said...

rhale6 I agree with you I hate being in situations where you have no clue wehat to do.

grenfroe6 said...

jjones6 ive read the book before

grenfroe6 said...

dmcknight2 i like realistic fiction

JCardenas6 said...

My book is My Brother Sam Is Dead by James Lincoln collier and on page 34. The connections I have with this book is that the main charachter, Tim, is in a bad situation. The situation is that its in the middle of the American Revolution and his father is a loyalist and his brother "sam" is an american soldier. My dad is divorced with my mom and he is Jewish. My mom is christian.

JCardenas6 said...

IRivera, your book sounds cool

JCardenas6 said...

NBrown, I read that book before.

mlennon6 said...

The book i'm reading is Money Hungry by Sharon G. Flake and i'm on page 55. A connection i've made is like the fact the the author has been through alot in her life like me, and her friends act alot like mine do.

mlennon6 said...

Oops i mean character not author!

Unknown said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
mlennon6 said...

Oh and she's super like protective of her friends. She like fought someone for her friend or something. Although the reason wasnt a big deal she still took up for them and i think thats something i'd do.

mlennon6 said...

@hrivera2 I love my mommy too.. But I do not like cats, haha.

Unknown said...

hrivera2

wperkins6 - that sounds a little like the book I started reading last year called the Run Away.

zbauer5 boring and slow. Thanks I will avoid that one.

Unknown said...

hrivera2
I am reading The Chosen by Liz Braswell. I am on page 553 (Chapter 4)
The connection I have with this book is the main character loves her mother very much and so do I. Chloe King is a cat person and I like cats. She is surrounded by good people and so am I. She likes helping people which I also try to do. Both of us like to hang around funny people.

ccummings5 said...

I am currently reading "A Corner of the Universe" by Ann M. Martin. I'm on page 149. The connections I have with my book is that she goes to the circus with her family and I've gone to the circus with my family. Also she goes to the library and gets books and I will go to the library to get books. The main character, Hattie, also has an uncle that she gets to spend time with and I have an uncle that I spend time with.

ccummings5 said...

jphan2
I would like to read your book. It sounds interesting.

ccummings5 said...

llambert6,
Almost all my family lives on Long Island.

EPata2 said...

The book I am currently reading is Interworld by Neil Gaiman and Micheal Reaves. So far I am on page 219. One relation I have to this book is that the main character is the same age as me, 13, making it easier to put myself into the first person experience. Also the book deals with having a lot of friends you can rely on making it easier to understand the book. But the largest connection I have with the book is that one of the two main settings of he book is going to school being a normal kid.

NBahn5 said...

The book I’m reading is Ida B by Katherine Hannigan and I am on page 52. Our connection is that we both love getting work done to go outside. Ida B loves going outside to play, draw, and talk to trees. That’s why she has absolutely no patience when it comes to chores and school work (she’s homeschooled). When I get home I usually finish my homework first and then go outside to ride my go cart or four-wheeler. Summer is way too hot to stay out for more than an hour so I normally ride for about an hour then I check the mail then go inside.

NBahn5 said...

gparent5

That book sounds really interesting. Good post!

NBahn5 said...

EPata2

Your book sounds really cool by the name. Nice post!

yalvarez6 said...

I am reading "R.L Stine The Firt Horror. I am curently on page 63. There isn't much I can relate this book to my life. A connection I could make is that in this book they move to a strange house. And none of the children like it. I have moved to a house that I didn't like. It felt weird living there and it didn't feel like home. Then after a while I learned to like it unlike the characters in this book. This is the only connection I can make due to the fact that it is based on super natural action.

But she is really trying to go to this school that is in Mississippi it’s called prestigious dogwood academy. And that’s what I’m trying to do go to this school called Lawton so I can get my credits up for high school so me and Patrice is both on the same path. Hopefully we both get to go to the schools we are trying to go to but Patrice has to do a lot to get to that school.

I am currently reading The Hunger Games. By Suzzane Collins. I am on page 111. This book is about a Girl named Katniss trying to support for her family. I enjoy this book, and recommend it to someone who enjoys action and suspense.

Schooled by Gordon Korman. Page 93. In my book I only have one connection with the book and my life. The connection I have with my book is the main character. The main character in my book is the 8th grade school presient as I am running for vice president of the 8th grade. I have no further connections with my book becasue the main character is a hippie that spends his time getting hassared by hes peers.

I am reading Wizards of the Game by David Lubar. I am currently on page 76. The connection I made was that the main character is all into this game with his friends and that is how I am with Xbox. He knows all the statistics and strategies, which is how my friends and I are. We all get on at a certain time like Mercer meets up with his friends at a certain time, and we play. In Mercer’s game he has big tournaments with his friends and all my friends do the same. We all play and it never gets boring.

tdcole6: ya I don't think you're a hippie either. Its ironic you are running for vice president and the main character in your book is president in 8th grade.

GPena5 said...

yalvarez6: that has happened to me, but I got used to it. Is that book good?

Cwilliams5 said...

I like your post and your relations to the book. You did really well

The book that I’m reading is called The Old Man and the Sea
by Ernest Hemingway and I am on page 41.
The connection between my book and my life is that us both face
Hardships that is hard to overcome. Like in the book the man had a
Hard time fishing and couldn’t catch a thing while everyone else can
And the only food that he was eating was the food that boy brought over
And the hardship that I was facing is the sight of my mother in jail.
