I'm reading The Lord Of The Rings By J.J.R Tolkien. I am on page 107. With his diction and detail. like my author uses bigger words for Gandalf because he is a wise older man. when for pippin he uses smaller words cause pippin is a young dumb hobbit.
ReplyDeleteAlso detail by being descriptive.
The movie and the book are soooo different
DeleteI'm reading Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. I'm currently on page 90. Cornelia makes the characters believable by stating their thoughts. By doing this, you see what goes through their mind is just like us. Also, she describes them vividly. It makes sense how they act too depending on their age like Meggie acts like a child because she is one.
ReplyDeleteI told you the series is good!
DeleteI need a new book to read what should it be? and it can be really long

your third senteance is kind of confusing
I am currently reading les miserable by victor hugo. I am on page 400. He makes the characters believable by describing them really well. He also gives great dialogue to the characters which make them seem more believable. When the author describes some of the characters life you can really relate to it because he describes the situation in a way that you would relate to it.

I am currently reading "Murder on Orient Express" by Agatha Christie.
ReplyDeleteI am on page 119. Christie makes the characters believable through their dialogue. It is easy to tell their tone of voice and their thoughts from how they speak based on how they say what they say. She also makes her characters believable through their reactions to certain scenarios.

I am reading the book Lost In The River Of Grass written by Ginny Rorby. I am currently on page 142. Ginny makes the character Sarah believable is she uses vivid description words. Also she makes the character have real life problems. She also uses great dialogue.
ReplyDeleteAisom6 Sounds like a good book!
ReplyDeleteI just finished the book The Slawter by Darren Shan. Im on page 223 out of 223. My author uses details because they create an image into the mind of what the character is doing or is seeing. He also uses big words which make the reader become intriged by the big usage. This helps makes the author's characters believeable.
ReplyDelete@gparent5: great post!
@dblair6 fantastic job!
the book i am crruently reading is scat by carl haasien, the pg number i am on is 83. The way the author makes the character believable is that he uses real word examples. Like an example, the main character of my book is a guy named nick and his dad is in the military he was station in iraq but, some thing happened to hm and he lost his arm. Then after that happened he had to come home for medical trement. Thats how the author of my book makes the character believable

I am currently reading Theodore kid lawyer Boone by John Grisham. Currently on page 151. The author makes the characters of the book very believable. He gives them rel life problems kids and adults face around the world. For example Theo's parents are hardworking parents that barley have time for Theo. Also he gave April(Theo friend) real life characteristics to like having to choose which parent she wants to stay with because they are getting a divorce.

ReplyDeleteI am reading Th1rteen R3asons why by: Jay Asher on page 284. The author of the book makes the characters believable by giving specific details on how they look. When they do that you can imagine them better. They also show their feelings so you can connect with them like you could with a real person. If the author didn’t show their feelings it would be less interesting and it would feel less believable.
ReplyDeletellambert6 I agree good job!
ReplyDeletedblair6 You forgot to capitalize after a few of your periods.
i am reading In a Heartbeat by Loretta Ellsworth. and i am on page 65. the characters in my book are believable because both face real life problems. and both have real solutions. for example Amelia is going through a really serious heart condition that a lot of people have to deal with. that why they are believable.

I'm currently reading "The Red Necklace" by Sally Gardner. I am on page 123. What makes the characters believable is all the details.Just by stating their thoughts and describing their actions. When i'm reading the book I can really feel like i'm in the characters shoes.
ReplyDelete@dblair6 awesome description
@llambert6 nice detail
I am currently reading Everlost by Neal Shutterman and I am on page 50. The author tries to promote a real life idea but make the story in a fictional way. For example in the beginning of the book a car crash occurs which is real, but not everyday does somebody get teleported. Even though their are some pretty odd parts in the book, I still consider the characters begin based off normal lives. This is because their are no things in the book so far that have seemed out of this world, meaning no pixies or mythical creatures or even superhuman antagonists.
ReplyDelete@ jjones6
ReplyDeleteNice series.
@twithers5
Great book.
I'm reading Matched by Ally Condie and I finished the book. The author makes the characters believable by the detail of their appearance. She also makes them believable by their feelings. She describes them to be rebellious against the strict society they live in. The way she describes little details of their appearance makes them believable.

Im reading the choice by Nicholas Sparks page 75. The author makes the characters believeable by making it where they're actually real people. I feel like there could be people just like Gabby, a pedatrician who is in love with her neighbor. Her neighbor is a vet and he's apparently pretty hot so i could see that. It's a realisticc love story and there's no over the top dramatic things going on. It's really believeable
ReplyDelete@sfreer2 i like that author!
@kkey3 I liked that sho
I have just finish the book Hoot by Carl Hiaasen. I on the last page of this book. The book is believeable because it shows a possible situation. It shows a real setting and peole that could be real. The catigory that it could be in is realalistic fiction.

Yes, great way of describing it, some other authors do that too. I have never been able to put it in words though.
I'm reading Secrets by, Liz Schulte. I'm on page 46. The author makes the character Jules believable by talking about her life. The author explains facial expressions and how the person sits and lives in her home. This makes Jules seem more realistic and relate-able.

Im done reading Catching Fire. The author is Sussane Collins. She makes the characters believable by creating giving them feelings and drama to go with what they are going through.

I am currently done with the book "pop" by Gordon Korman. Gordon uses very detailed dialog between two characters.

I am reading Malice by Chris Wooding and I am on page 351. The author of this book makes the main character, Seth, believable by giving him real human characteristics, and as a result, he reacts to different scenarios in a very real and human way. An example of this is when he is first transported to Malice. He is very skeptical of a ritual that supposedly causes "Tall Jake" to take whoever is performing it to Malice. I believe that if you were to hear that, you would be skeptical too, so that definitely helps make the character believable. Also, when he does end up in Malice, he is in a state of shock and disbelief. I believe that is also how a real human would feel.

I started and finished Mocking Jay by Suzzanne Collins. Suzzanne Collins makes the characters beleivable by giving them their fallacies and imperfections. Katniss is controlling and sometimes makes the wrong choices. Johanna is afraid of water and addicted to morphling. Peeta tries to kill Katniss before he is rehabilitated to District 13.Gale also possibly kills Prim with one ofhis bombs used to kill the rescuers.Haymitch is a drunk that was supposed to help Katniss in her first Hunger Games.
