I am reading the hunger games by Suzanne Collins and am on page 293. I love how there is so much excitement. towards the middle of the book there are lots of moments that leave you waiting or wanting to see more. what I don't like about this book is that one of my favorite characters (rue) dies. And in a way you wouldn't imagine, she gets shot by an arrow. And that arrow wasn't even supposed to hit her it was supposed to hit catniss:(

kberry2 ive read books like that It really stinks because the beginning is so good then it just starts getting really boring.

I was reading Catching Fire: Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, I'm actually finished with my book, and gave it to the library. the dialogue of the book was really interesting. Katniss has to get married to Peeta, what was really funny that I thought made the games even better was that Peeta said Katniss is pregnant. ha! Doesn't that start a riot. That part really stood out to me, I really enjoyed that par However, one thing I didn't like was that she couldn't make up her mind Peeta or Gale. I mean make up your mind it was really annoying, but I knew she was going to go with Gale. this book is really good it's climax and dialogue really catches you. it's a book were you really can't put it down, unless you have to.

Don't forget to cap. You title of the book and don't forget your periods, over all it was good.

Eyoung2
Don't forget to over look your paragraph and don't forget to put space, but good at least you made a connection even though you don't like the mystery part,

I`m finished with the book DUKE by Kirby Larson. The event that I like in the story is the fact how even though he is in war he keep Hobie company, by sending him letters informing him that he is ok and he has nothing to worry about. Duke did the same but he had someone else tell Hobie about what there having him to do. the part I don't like is how in the last chapter they made a big deal about the father coming back and then thy don't make a part when he does.

I am reading the book Life as We Knew It by Susan Pfeffer and I am on page 143. The book is about a girl named Miranda who learns that a meteor is heading towards Earth. I really like the fact that gas cost more money, school is closed, and supermarkets are running out of food. That part makes the book more exciting. I don't really like that fact that Miranda doesn't try to do anything exciting or special before she dies. Such as skydiving or jumping off a cliff.

I am reading “Theodore Boone: the abduction” by john Grisham and I am on page 121. One thing I do like about this book in particular is that it draws my attention and I am not normally drawn to novels of this category. It isn’t something that interests me but I like how he makes it relate to his audience on an emotional level rather than a shallower level. One thing I don’t like about this book is that it is part of a trilogy but the first and the second book don’t really have anything to do with each other. The first book was a mystery and it was left as a cliff hanger which I happen to hate and I would’ve thought that it would’ve begun in this book but this focuses on a whole different type of mystery so when I first started the book I was somewhat confused as to why he left the first one a cliffhanger in the trilogy.

The book that I am reading is called The Pretty One by Chryl Klam, and I'm on page 250. One specific thing that I like about my book is that I can kind of relate to it, and it keeps me thinking of what is going to happen next. One thing that I don't like about this book is that it has so many unknown words in it, so I have to get a dictionary. It's mo fun. Other than that i love this book :D !

I'm currently reading Blood Is Thicker by Paul Langan. I;m currently on page thirty-five. The thing I like most about my book is that Hakeem is in a similar position I'm in like moving from your friends and family. The thing I dislike the most in my book is that his cousin savon is treating him like that. Because whenever Hakeem tries to talk to him he tries to start an argument

I WAS reading Catching Fire: Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. One thing I liked about the book was that the way they all tried to save one another. Also, the behind the scenes, only Peeta and Haymitch knowing about their secret plan. T o go against the capital. One thing I didn't like was that she couldn't make up her mind between Gale or Peeta. Also I feel like, and this is just my opinion, but I feel as if people are trying to make the characters seem like Edward and Jacob. Bu i think in the story they would enjoy that Katniss might go with Gale. However, I'm not sure if this means anything, but she did say in the book when Gale was getting whooped, that she will always be Gale's girl. Or at least something similar to that.
