The book that I am currently reading is "The Fallen" by Paul Langan and I am on page 30. The one word that is important to this section is crumbling, I have choose this word because in this section its like his whole life went trembling down the drain. "He got kicked out of school for fighting and skipping school." Page 25. Now his mom have to struggle to put him in another school that he is zoned for. The school that she didn't want to send him to because that's where his brother got killed at

The book that I read was enders game by Orson Scott Card which I have finished. The most important word in my book would be strategy. The reason I say this is that in my book the whole idea of it is that you need to be able to outthink your opponent. In the book this is shown when ender faces off against many different people and has to be able to outthink them and win. So he uses strategy to be able to outthink and win.

I'm reading "The Last 13 #4," by James Phelan, and I'm on page 111. The most important word in this book is probably 'thirteen.' "'I'm meant to be the one who finds the last thirteen,' I say." Thirteen is the most important because there are 13 dreamers that have dreams that help find the 13 gears. It is one big race to the gate that can only be opened with all 13 gears. No one is quite sure what's behind the gate though.

The story I am currently reading is diary of a wimpy kid Rodrick rules and the author of the book is Jeff Kinney and the page I am currently on is page 92. The most important word I read is eager “I was eager to rake the yard for a 100 bucks for my mother. I chose that word because Greg is always eager to do something and eager describes him too me.

I’m reading I Am Number 4 by Pittacus Lore, I’m on page 87.
The most important word I’ve read this week would have to be massacre. “It was a massacre. There was too much hatred for them on to be interested in our resources”. This word is the reason John is on the run any way. There was a massacre back on his home planet knocking out most of his species him and nine others escaped. He’s number four the authorities are on their way to kill him.

The book I'm reading is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain. I'm on page 110. I'd say the most important word this week was poetry. The sentence this appears in is "If Emmeline Grangerford could make poetry like that before she was fourteen, there ain't no telling what she could a done by-and-by." This appears when Huck Finn shelters in a house with a family who let him stay overnight when he washed up with his raft. He goes into a bedroom where the daughter passed away a few years ago and sees that she used to write. Huck seems emotionally effected and sorry that such talent had gone to waste.

I am currently reading 39 clues by Rick Roidan and I am on the 46th page. The most important word used in my book so far is the word "Distraction". On page 33 the main character Dan, said "Alistair. All you have done is caused distractions and caused delays. I picked this word because it is a main part of this book. It has been a thing that has held the flow of this book. Every time Dan is closer to the next clue Alistair holds him back with some non-sense.

@nlabender

@nvance5

The book I'm currently reading is Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer and I'm on page 153. The most important word is surviving, the reason it's important because Artemis needs to survive to defeat opal. If Artemis dies then opal will have world domination, because nobody but Artemis can stop her. I can relate this to real life is because if it wasn't for the soldiers in Mexico, El chapo would be free and powerful. So Artemis is needed to defeat opal

@jhardy5 39 clues are good books

@Zebrroa1 Good book

The title of my book is “You’re Bacon Me Crazy” and the author of my book is Suzanne Nelson. Im on page 31. The most important word in the book is bacon. Because the whole book is about bacon everything that happens in this book goes back to the main character cooking bacon type food. “Bacon me crazy bit”. This is one of the recipes they are using for their bacon food truck.

@Mcromarty2 This book sounds very interesting to read.

@jhardy5 Might read this book one day.

I am reading "alpha centaury the nearest star".
I think is the most important word of this book is star because the topic of the book is that, the stars. You can see this word in all the book in a los of sentences, some examples are: "Sirious is the most brighter star in the sky", "the proper motilón of the stars is measured in parsecs", "if we put alpha centaury in the place of the sun, we still in the same place in the solar sistem" the best example for me is in the title "alpha centaury, the nearest star".

@egauthier

i am currently reading the book "cake pop crush" by Suzanne Nelson. I am page 97 the word i think is most important is cake. When you're watching the human equivalent of a triple - layer fudge cake, you don't look away." page -97. I chose this word because the whole book is about cake. This is also an important part in the book because the main character meets some lone new.

@gauthier2
your book sounds interesting

I am reading the book Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone, im on page 60 and the author of the story is J.K. Rowling.
I think the most important word is You-Know-Who (Voldemort). on page 57 it says, "But what happened to Vol-, sorry - I mean, You-Know-who?" I chose this word because apparently this person is very dangerous to others that they are too afraid to say his name. I think its important so far because 'You-Know-Who' is pretty much apart of Harry Potter's life because he killed his parents and tried killing Harry too.

@lmperkins6 your book seems pretty interesting


@jmarquez6 your book sounds really cool
