I am currently readding "Flush" ny Carl Hiaasen, and i am on page 125. A main event in my book is that the main character's dad gets arrested. His dad was arrested because he sunk a boat of a man he believed was dumping waste into the river. The dad also refuses to leave on bail because he wants to prove a point. If I was in that situation and my dad got arrested it would be very difficult to deal with. I would not be mad at my father, like the son in the book I would be sad but I would understand why he did it. He was just doing what he thought was right, although I dont know how other people would see it. I think that the hardest part would be trying to deal with what other people in the town would say about my dad.
The book I am currently reading is On the Fence by Kasie West and I am on page 167. A main event that happened in my book is Charlie and Braden are best friends but they have feelings for each other. She doesn't want any of her family members to know about it, so she meets Braden every night by the fence (because they are neighbors) so they can see each other. If I were in this situation, I would tell my family that I'm seeing Braden. So I wouldn't be able to keep this a secret from my family. If I were Charlie, I would tell my parents I am seeing Braden every night. If one day, we decided to get married and have a big wedding, then my parents will know that we were seeing each other. They would be furious that I've kept it a secret for years. So if I were in Charlie's situation, I would tell my parents that Braden and I are together.
@ ALandi I love that book! That is a very god way to deal with the situation
@ ALandi4 I love that book! That is a very good way to deal with the situation
I am reading Chomp by Carl Hiaasen and I am currently on page 114. A main event in my book is when Wahoo's dad, Mickey Cray, has to decide whether or not he wants to participate in a local T.V show after he fights off a ferocious gator. The problem is that he doesn't agree with the people who work for the show. He would turn them down, although they are offering him a large amount of money, and he needs it. In this situation, I would take the offer. To me, the money would be worth a few days with some people I don't quite like.
rraisch6, great blog!
alandi4, nice blog!
@ JSmtih4 cool blog
I'm currently on page 166 of the book "Perfect" by Sara Shepard. A recent situation from the book is when Hanna Marin accidentally goes into the boys bathroom. In the bathroom there's this toilet called Old Faithful, and every hour it "erupts". She was in that stall when it happened and then a guy came in the bathroom. His name was Lucas and he knew it was her because he saw her go in the bathroom. If it was me in that situation I probably would have FREAKED out, then pretended I was a dude or that i wasn't actually in there. Then once he left I would make sure that no one saw me leave the bathroom.
@Jsmith4 Great job!!
@RRaisch6 Great details!
my friends and famiI am currently ready Ghost of War by Ryan Smithson and i am on page 233. The main event in the book is when the character leaves to the army. He is still young and has no idea what is going to happen, if i was caught up in that even though i signed up for it i would be pretty nervous. After all your fresh out of high school and going to Iraq one of the most dangerous places in the world . I would tell my friends family wish me luck ill be back soon to give them hope and myself.
@jsmith4 i would also handle that situation that way great job.
@Sbrown4 great blog plus details amazing!
The book I am reading is the comeback kids by Mike Lupica and I am on page 161. A recent situation that happened in the book is when the main character Scott Parry and Chris Colon got into a huge argument over something that they could’ve handled alone. Instead the whole football team had to handle it and both of them got kicked off of the football team. I would’ve tried to talk it out instead of arguing about it. This could’ve easily turned into a huge fight. I would’ve also never listened to the other people and asked Chris what happened.
great job @alandi4 i wouldve handled it that way too
keep up the good work @RRaisch6
The book i am currently reading is unstoppable by Tim green.i am currently on page 175. what event happen recently in the story was the game was on the line and coach had the opportunity to choose what play can be used to win the game. on the ten yard line whether to run it or throw is and he decided to run it. however they did not score and they lost the game. if it was my up to me i would have decided to run it also but run it in a more orderly fashion.
i would have done that too @jsmith4
good choice @sbrown4
I am reading My Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn and i am on page 172. Recently my main character had a talk with Ishmael about how people can be better and what wold make our schools work better. In my opinion, our schools would be more effective if people genuinely cared about working hard and learning, not just doing homework to get good grades. People should want to learn not think of it as a chore, but unfortunately that's all it is seen as.
RRaisch6
wait... did you post the same comment twice?
alandi4
is the number in our usernames to show what period we are in?
I am reading the book "Stormbreaker" by Anthony Horowitz, and i am on page 51. The event in my book that i came across is that the main character came across an assault course with nets, ladders, tunnels and ditches, towering walls, and swinging tightropes, and he thought of it as a "adventure playground from hell." I would've believed in myself and try as hard as i can to get across the obstacle. The hardest part would be the towering walls out of all obstacles in the course. And the main character falls off of the rope and into a pit of freezing slime.
@AChristian4 sounds cool..
@DDallas5 sounds interesting.
@ FwBouger I didn't post the same comment twice, i spelled the word good wrong and I didn't want points taken off because of it
@JSmith4 nice blog!
@RRaish6 sound really good!
i am currently finished with the book Fan girl by Rainbow Rowell. One of the situations that the character faces in my book is cheating. In the story someone cheats her story off to win a contest. If this ever happens to me i would probably write a nasty letter and throw it out the window just because that's what makes me feel better.
nice comment @rraische6
nice comment @fwbougher sounds like a nice book
I am currently reading "Dead girls don't lie" by Jennifer Shaw Wolf, I am in page 35. Rachel died a few days ago, Jaycee is trying to search what really happened to Rachel. Rachel was found dead in the old house, the police said it was an "accident", but Jaycee knows it was not. One thing that happened recently is that Jaycee was invited to her friends house, close to the old house(where Rachel died). she wanted to take a look at the house to find clues. the door was locked so she decided to go through the window, but there was broken glass, so she had a towel and she climbed carefully, this guy appears from nowhere and she slips and fall's and he asked her "what are you doing here" she was without words. If I were her I would tell him that my phone got up there because I threw it ,and I didn't notice the window with broken glass, I would get nerves, but if he goes upstairs to get my "phone" I would run as fast as I can and get out of there.
@RRaisch nice book
@alandi4 nice book!
I am currently reading "Do Not Pass Go" by: Kirkpatrick Hill, i am on page 127. One event that happened in my book is that the main character Deet went to talk to his father which is currently in jail. He was really nervous to do it. If i was in that situation i would be going off on my father because he shouldn't be in jail in the first place! Now you already know nobody is going to bail you out so why do it in the first place.
@alandi4

I recently just finished “One Tough Chick” by Leslie Margolis. A recent event from my book was the talent show. In the book Annabelle was one of the three the student judges for the show. Instead of her being fair, she was being biased. She picked her friends instead of being fair. That was one of the basic rules she had to follow. I would have handled the situation by being fair about it. I would have just picked who I thought did the best, not my friends.
I am reading "Flush" by Carl Haaisen and I finished the book. One event that has occurred in my book is Noah and Abbey put purple dye in the sewer tank to prove that the cruise ship was really dumpling human waste in the ocean. Noah and Abbey were scared to get caught by the manager and that they might die because Luno was a body guard and he was chasing them. I would not have even gone to try to prove that they were dumping things in the water I would have been scared to get caught. I would not have been as brave as Noah and Abbey and would have chickened out.
@alandi4 nice job!
@jsmith4 I would do it for the money too!
@Dgreek5 nice blog.
@accook awesome blog!
I know it's out of season, but I am on page 84 of Let it Snow by 3 authors: John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle. The most recent event in my book involved tons of snow. It's Christmas Eve and the main character, Jubilee, is on a train to Florida to see her grandparents, but the biggest snow storm in 50 years is taking place. The train crashes into snow, so Jubilee gets off and walks to the closest building to the train: Waffle House. She met someone there and they headed off to his house. This is where the most recent even took place. Jubilee and her new found friend, Stuart, had to march through snow to get to Stuart's house. It took about an hour to almost be at his house, but upon arguing with Stuart Jubilee stomps her feet not knowing of the frozen creek below them. The ice cracks and they fall in. Goodness, if this happened to me I probably wouldn't be able to handle it at all. Snow is so pretty and I love the cold because I have a reason to wear warm clothes, but i hate the cold! I'm always cold, and if this happened to me I probably wouldn't make it through.
@hmaetre3 That's kind of funny, I like your blog!
@jwitter6 Awesome to see you would persevere through that situation. If you read my blog, you can tell I suck at persevering. Anyway, great blog!

I am currently done with book Daniel X by James Patterson. Recently in the book Daniel is fighting one of the most toughest aliens. He knew he wasn't as strong as the alien, so he morphed himself into a fly and crawled into his ear and just destroyed everything in his head until he died. I thought this was really awkward but I would have gotten a sword and pretended I was going to fight him when actually my friends were and just kill him from behind.
nice job @alandi4
Perfect @RRaisch6
the book i am currently reading is Downtown Boy by Juan Felipe Herrera, and im on page 53. The main character Juanito Palomares was caught stealing pies and that same day he had a boxing match. His mother doesnt want him to be in boxing matches but he does it any way. She soon found out what happened and he told her the truth and got in trouble. If iwas in that sitiuation i wouldve lied to get out of trouble or either told her part of the truth.
I am currently reading The accused by: John Grisham I am currently on page 73. The current conflic that is going on is Theodore is he is being accused of breaking and entering another kids locker. If i was in Theodore's place i wouldent do what he did. When Theodore was calle up to the office he ran out of the school as fast as he could. If i was in that same sitiation I would hier a lawyer.
good job on the blog @snturner3 the waffle house sounds cool.
good job on the blog @accook your book sounds scary.
I am currently reading Dead is a Battle Field by Marlene Perez and I am done reading it. An event that has happened is that Eva got trapped in a house full of zombies and she didn't know what to do. If it was me trapped in the house I would have tried to find an exit instead of trying to fight them and hide. I don’t think that was a very smart decision made by her and she is fairly smart person. She called for help but ended up getting them stuck too.
I am reading Torment by Lauren Kate and I finished the book yesterday. a recent event from the book is when the outcast takes the mirror image of Luce and then Cam shoots it. everyone thinks Luce is dead, but she is really just hiding in the shed. all her friends are sad and really mad at Cam. she decides to kind of just sneak away. I would have ran out of the shed, once it was safe, and tell everyone that I was ok.
ddallas5: Good Job!
jwitter6: Good blog!
I read Framed by Gordon Korman, and I finished the book. A recent event from my book is Griffin Bing was under a court order of house arrest, and parole. House arrest is basically like you can't leave you house except for school. So one of Griffin's friends tricked his parole anklet so he could leave his house to pull off one of his plans. Unfortunately the trigger on the anklet went off so he had to rush home before the police got there. I think I would have done the same thing but I would have told the cops the truth(griffin lied to the cops and said he was at the house all along).
alandi4: Good job. Keep up the good work.
rraisch6: Good job. Keep up the good work.
I am reading the Familiars by Adam Epstein and Andrew Jacobson and I am on page 186. A recent event in my book is when the Familiars are going to get their Loyals but their in the wrong spot. They get attacked by an evil gray haired witch. I would have knocked something on top of her to stun her. Then I would get the others to help me tie her up.
I am currently reading the ghost of graylock written by dan poblocki i'm on page 39.a boy named Neil cady was with his sister and he was having a hard time fitting in at his aunts house because it makes him think of his mom who recently past which the reason why they was forced to live with there aunts.if i was in this situation i would feel how he would feel because that's hard if you lose your mother or any parent and i wouldn't want to be by anything that reminds me of someone or something i lost.and i get where he comes from and he didn't want to tell his sister that because he didn't want her to feel bad like he does.
@alandi4
good details in blog
@RRaisch6
sounds like a good book
and nice details.
the book i am currently reading is the Hunger Games Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. i am currently on page 183. the most recent event was when Peeta warns the rebels of an attack heading their way and is attacked and drag away and beaten. how i would deal with that is probably nuke the places he inst so i could destroy the enemies and get him back. that or just storm the place with an army killing everyone in sight.
good blog RRaisch6
Dgriswold5 you can just tell your book sound suspenceful
I have finished reading Chupacabra. A main event in the story is when Grace's friends save her from being kidnapped by her grandfather and a rich zoo owner. If I was in that situation and I was her friend I would had saved her too. She wasn't just a friend though, she helped them discover a giant squid in the book before. I didn't read the first book though.I think the hardest part of the main event in the story is trying to get past security to the bottom of the zoo, because the guy who owns it has unseeable cameras everywhere and is very wealthy.
@alandi4 I never knew a man can get arrested for sinking a boat that's terrible! But it sounds like a good book though.
@SBrown, i would have down the same exact thing
I am reading The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian by C. S. Lewis, and I’ve finished the book. A main event that happened in my book is that after they defeat Caspian’s uncle Miraz, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy had to leave Narnia. Even more upsetting, this was Peter and Susan’s last time in Narnia. But Edmund and Lucy would one day come back for their final time. And Caspian was made king of Narnia after his uncle was defeated. If I was in that situation it would be very sad because I would have to leave Aslan, Caspian, and all the creatures in Narnia for a very long time. Plus I’d miss all the treasure I’d have to leave. I absolutely loved this book.

My book is One For The Murphy's by Lynda Hunt and I am on page 90.recently in the book Michael Eric had a seizurehe is a little boy one of the youngest of the 3 boys in the Murphy family Carly had to wait and watch the other little boy who Is name is Adam.while Miss Murphy went to the hospital with Michael Eric it was shocking but I would have done the same exact thing.
@Emasio6 you did great telling what happened and I'm glad you wouldmy lie to the cops !
@dkeaton4 your book sounds great Plus great job on not being bias.
I am reading Firefight by Brandon Sanderson and I am on page 240. One main event in my book is when the main character was at a party, and he saw one of the antagonists there, so he chose to follow her. If I were in this situation I would have done the same thing. I, though, would have told someone what I was doing, while he went in with nobody knowing where he was going and no back up. It ended up working out for him, but he got pretty close to being discovered, so it would have been nice to have some backup.
alandi4: Nice job, I would probably do the same thing in that situation.
snturner3: Good blog, that seems like a bad situation.
I am currently reading Devon Delaney Should Totally Know Better by Lauren Barnholdt and I am on page 280. A recent situation from the book was when Devon had to tell the truth to friends that she made up a story about Greg. Things were getting complicated between Devon and Luke because she lied about Greg to make Luke jealous. Friends told her to tell the truth, so Devon decided to tell Luke and her other friends that she lied about Greg. If I was Devon, I would have also tell everyone the truth like her because I am the one that made the mistake.
@jwitter6 Nice blog!
@vnelson2 Good details!
I am reading To Heaven and Back by Mary C. Neal, MD and I'm actually finished my book. The last situation in the book that I remember is that her son accidentally tapped the bunker of a man's and the man was about to shoot him. Mary told him to run to his car and drive away. How I would handle this if I was Mary is that I would have done the same thing: tell him to get the heck out of there. She was over the phone so she didn't push him. Don't worry he did do what she told him but I would have screamed a little louder into the phone.
I am reading the book called cover-up by john Feinstein, and Im on page 130 when Susan carol had a hard time with the USTV producers. She was yelling and telling bad stuff about them witch made it harder for her. How I would have handled it was I would of done my job and did it better then USTV. She worked for CBS and they had a rivalry. it wouldn't be that difficult, just ignore them and do my job correctly.
To alandi4,
I would be the same if my dad did that. But I would be a little disappointed at the same time. Keep up the good work!
alandi4 good job
Rriaisch6 good job
To RRaisch6,
I would tell too but if Braden said to keep it a secret I would ask him why. If he said "because", I would tell. Keep it up!
I am reading The O'Reilly Factor For Kids by Bill O'Reilly and Charles Flowers and I am on page 61. In on of the chapters, Bill O'Reilly was talking about friends and what type of friend is a real friend. He also told a story about a time his friend lied to him. In the story he was going to prom and he asked his friend to go with him because he didn't have a date, his friend said he wasn't going but his friend actually did end up going but not with Bill. If I was Bill I would have done the same thing... Not be friends with the guy.
It would be difficult alandi4
Difficult decision jsmith4
I am currently reading "Scat" by Carl Hiaasen and I am on page 20. A main event in my book is that their field trip to the Black Vine Swamp was ended early because a small wildfire broke out in the area. If I was in this situation and I was the first person to see the wildfire I would probably tell a teacher and not just watch it like the main character. If the wildfire was really close of course I would just run away. I think the hardest part would be trying to think of a way to get out of the situation.
@alandi4 nice blog!
@jsmith4 ive readi that book. Great blog!
I'm reading The Maze Runner by James Dashner. I'm on page 267. If I was in the story and I just arrived in the glade I would meet everyone and learn everything I could. Then I wou escape the maze and return home.
I just started reading Matched by Ally Condie and I'm on page 40. The most recent event was that after Cassia had her match banquet and she recieved her match information, in a form of a microcard. When she viewed the microcard before her date with her match the face that was shown was at first Xander, but then it showed a different person for her match. What I would have done diffrent than Cassia is that when they went on their date I would have told him about the "microcard" incident. Although to be honest I would probably rethink about talking about it with someone else or not.
crukstalis6 Sounds like an interesting book!
emasio6 Great job on the Blog!
I am reading "Small as an Elephant" by Jennifer Richard Jacobson and I am done reading my book. The main event of this book is that the main character has to find his way home without his mom. His mom leaves him alone at the campground and he does not even have much money and food. If I was in that situation, I think I would be crying. If I don't have a phone, I would find someone nice and ask them If I can borrow their phone. If my parents doesn't answer my call. I would search for the bus that I can go home. It would be scary but I need to try something and get back to my house. If there are no buses there that time, I would call a taxi and go home. Since I don't have that much money, I would tell the driver to wait and get money from my parents.
@RRaisch6 great job.
@ alandi4 good job!
I am currently reading Theodore Boone Kid Lawyer by John Grisham, and I am finished with the book. A main event in the book was when the main character had to set up seats in a courtroom for his class. If I had to handle that situation I would have asked the teacher what kind of seats he wanted in the courtroom. I then would have asked the judge if they could have the seats. The last thing I would do is make the class aware of where they would be seating.
Nice job describing your the actions you would have taken alandi4.
Great job on your blog RRaisch6
I am currently reading the infinity ring by James Dashner, I am on page. 50. one event that happened was the main characters going back in back in time to find Christopher Columbus. if I was in this position I would be asking people of Christopher Columbus location right now. I would try to look for him in England. I would go to the shipping ports to see if he was there.
@Alandi4 good details
@RRaisch good job
I am currently reading The Line by Teri Hall and I'm on page 18. The main event of the story so far is that The owner of The Property thought a little girl broke the green house window. Even thou she didn't brake the window. Now she has to work for here for 6 months. I would just do it and get it over with so I don't have a problem from her anyone.
@alandi4 sounds like a good book
@rraish6 sounds very complex
I am reading "The youngest Templar" by Michael P. Spradlin and I am on page 230. An event that recently happened was that one of Tristan's friends was being hung by this Templar by the name of Sir Hugh because he wanted the Holy Grail. Tristan made the decision to get his friend Robard to try and shoot the rope so their friend could escape. If I was in that situation I wouldn't have tried to shoot the rope, I would have tried to come to an agreement with Sir Hugh. I would have done this because if we tried to shoot the rope the arrow would have had a chance of missing the rope or killing their friend.
alandi4: sounds interesting!
Vnelson2: sounds like a good way to handle the situation
Vnelson2: sounds like a good way to handle the situation
I am currently reading Million Dollar throw by Mike Lupica, and I am on page 138. A recent event that happened from my book is that Nate is missing easy passes. The media is all at his practices and games because he has the golden opportunity to win a million dollars. I probably would be just as nervous as Nate. If that much pressure was ever on me at the age of thirteen I don't believe i could handle it any better. The only thing that I could maybe deal with is crowds at games because i have crowds at my baseball games all the time.
alandi4: Sounds like a difficult situation to be in.
RRaisch6: Nice blog this week.
The book I was reading is called Travel Team by mike lupica and I am on page 76. A recent event was that Danny didn't make the school basketball team for his school. He started to asked coach if could be on the team again but he didn't let him. What I would have done was if I didn't make the team I would of trained harder so I will be ready for next year.

I am currently reading Someone to love me by Anne Schraff, I am done with the book. A main event that happened is when Cindy went to a halloween party with her boyfriend Bobby Wallace. When Cindy and Bobby were walking toward the halloween party Cindy saw her friends Jamie and Darcy and a couple others waiting for her. They were trying to tell her not to go into the halloween party with Bobby because they did'nt want Cindy to get hurt. Jamie told Cindy not to go into the halloween party because they were afraid that Bobby was going to hurt her. Cindy did'nt listen to Jamie and went into the party with Bobby. If I was Cindy I would've went with my friends knowing that Bobby was up to no good.

I'm currently reading The Tomorrow Code by Brian Falker and i'm on page 133. One recent event is Tane being enraged and taking his anger out by shouting and yelling at Rebecca and Fatboy(his brother). How i would have handled it is by being a little more discrete about my rage. Or go into a private room and beat the stuff out of a pillow or something soft. Or yell at someone or something else. Also i would have just played video games and take my anger out on virtual people.
alandi4: Nice job on five sentences and what you would have done.
RRaisch6: Sounds pretty logical. Also good job on your work.
I am currently reading "One for the Murphys" by Lynda Mullaly Hunt, and I am on page 213. Carley has just visited her mother in the hospital, Carley was upset because her mom was acting like nothing happen. Carley said something to her mom about her being hit by her moms husband, and why her mom held her down so he could hit her. Carley goes on and on about how her mom was never really a mom she never cared for her or acting like a mom. she began to tell her mom about the Murphys,the family that had been taking care of her. and how they cared for her more then her mom her mom. her mom ended up telling her that they could have her that she was unappreciative. she ran out of the hospital. If my mom ever said that to me I would feel unwanted, but if my mom was like her mom I would probably go with the family.
great blog nice details @alandi4
nice blog! @RRaisch6
The book I'm currently reading is Ungifted by Gordon Korman and I'm on page 77. A main event that happened was that, Donovan was taking a math test and didn't know how to do it, and cheated off of Noah. Donovan also tried to cheat off of Abigail. Abigail blurted out that he was looking at her paper. If I was Abigail, and I saw him looking at my paper I would have told him to stop or hidden my answers without involving the teacher , unless the situation kept going.

dkeaton4 good job on the blog!
I was reading "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card, and I am finished with the book. A recent event in my book that happened is that the aliens were finally defeated by Ender and his Dragon Army. If I was in Ender's position I would have done the same things he did to make this happen except I wouldn't let more of my army die in the process. I would've sent more battleship to attack the aliens than Ender did because a lot more of my army would die if I didn't. The next thing I would do would be celebrate differently than Ender did, he went home hugged his parents and talked to them for a while then played video-games while I would celebrate by having a victory party. It is pretty weird to come home from saving a world and just play video-games in my opinion at least.
@alandi4 Great blog, that is nice that you would do what the son would do in the book.
@Rraisch6 Keep up the good work on your blog you did amazingly!
I'm reading "My brother is a big fat lier " by James Patterson, I'm on page 50. The event that has taken place is Ralph and Georgia have started school and Ralph is in 8th and Georgia is in 6th and everyone knows Ralph because of his bad doings. Everyone thinks Georgia is the same because she's Ralph's sister. If I was in this Story I would've made Ralph admit that I was a good person because everyone would've been treating me the same way they were treating him and I wouldn't like that.

I am currently reading One Crazy Summer by Rita Garcia-Williams and I am on page 154. A situation that the sisters were in is going on a plane alone. I would be very nervous to go on a plane alone to a city where i have never been. I would handle the situation by breathing in and out slowly and staying calm. I also would read a magazine or go on my phone to not be distracted by my fear.
nice job alandi4 great detailsa
RRaisch6 nice detail and job describing the the book.
Iam currently reading True Legend by Mike Lupica and I'm on page 115. The last major thing to happen was that Drew's team won the championship game but Drew didn't do very well. He handled it by locking himself in his room and thinking about what went wrong. I would have handled it by locking myself in my room and hitting things until I calmed down. I wouldn't handle the situation very well but if you're the only one on your team that didn't score in the championship game then I don't think most people would handle it well.
Good blog alandi4

The book I am currently reading is “Among the Hidden” by Margaret Peterson I am currently on page 89. In my book the main character is a third child having to hide from services because the nation is over populated. His name is Luke. Right now he is going to a neighbors house and spending time over there with their third child. If I were in his situation I would not leave my house because if they find you in the book you get sent away or killed. I wouldn’t be risking my life to go and hangout with someone next door.
alandi4 nice blog.
rraisch6 good work.
I'm reading Of Mice and Men by Stephen Craine and I've finished it. Recently the main character, George had to kill his fiend Lennie, because Lennie who's mentally challenged, accidentally killed a woman. I would have tried to find another way than killing him, even though bad things like this may happen again. I would try running away pr something so i wouldn't have to have killed the guy that i'd known for my entire life.
I am currently reading Shooter and on page 189 by Walter Myers. One of the situation in this story is a kid getting interviewed by a cop. I would handle this quite well. I wouldn't really get nervous, because I like talking to people and I'm also pretty good liar. Also I would keep my self from not getting nervouse by not looking at the person interviewing me..
I'm currently reading Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson, and I'm currently on page 55. One recent event that, was when David got kidnapped by his own uncle while David was walking in his hometown, because he wanted to take all the inheritage David's parents left behind for him. After he kidnapped him, he shipped David on a boat with slaves to be sold to somebody. I would've handled the situation by forming a rebellion with the other slaves, then I would go after the uncle.

achristian4: Nice job!
alandi4:That makes senses.
I am reading Hatchet by Gary Paulson and I am on 180. One recent event is my character was extremely hungry and went looking for food. He found red berries and just started shoving them into his mouth. Then later he was really sick. I would have either not eaten the berries, or not eaten all of them because if you eat something poisonous it could really damage you, in a survival scenario especially.
@RRaisch6 Great blog.
@jsmith4 Goos job!
I am reading the adventures of tom sawyer by Mark Twain and i am on page 126. One recent event that happens in the book is when tom decides to become a pirate with a couple of friends. He does this because he thinks that he will lead a life of crime so he thinks this is a solution. Personally i would have done everything i could to make sure that i would not become a criminal. I might have even excepted the fact that my life would go down a dark road.
Nice job alandi4
Great job RRaisch6
The book that I am reading is called homesick by kelly Klice, and I am currently on page 115. The book has been going well so far, but one thing has happened is very wild. One major event that has taken place, is my character Luis meets a new friend. This new friend, and when him and his new friend become really close they have a falling out over a girl that they both liked. If I were in this type of situation, I wouldn't let a girl come between me and my close friend, but if it ever came to that I would sit down with my friend and talk it out.

kjones3 good job
jsmith4 awsome blog
Well im reading currently is the abduction by John grisham in one part of the book he was put in the spot of trying to answer a series of questions and i wouldve done the exact same thing he did and that was to only give them information that they wanted to hear and thats it.

I was reading "Bad Girls Don't Die" by Katie Alender and I am finished with my book. One of the last major events of my book was when Alexis was caught in a burning house and had to escape. Alexis ended up jumping out of her second story window and in to a tree. She then jumped out of the tree and had only a few minor injuries. If I had her in Alexis' place I think I might have panicked a little. I probably would have tried to put out the fire at first. I may just let the faucet run or something.
Kjones3 Good solution!
cfuentes4 Great descriptions.
I am reading the book "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson and I am finished with the book. A recent event that happened in the book near the end was Long John Silver kills one of the crew members. The main character Jim witnesses this and runs away. If I were Jim I would have done the same thing, because Long John Silver is a crooked and dangerous man that can take a mans life easily despite his disabilities. I would have been dumb to approach and call him out on his murder, then I may have been murdered.
@alandi4 Good job
@RRaisch6 Good response
I am currently reading If I Stay by Gayle Forman and I am on page 20. The main part of my book so far was the part where the car accident happened. The main character Mia was just driving with her family to her grandparents’ house when a huge truck ran into them. When Mia wakes up she was technically a ghost. She was able to see her family and how they were… none of them survived. In the book she was totally calm. She didn’t even start crying!! If I was her I know that I would’ve started panicking and freaking out.
alandi4 great job on your blog!! Nice job including descriptive details.
RRaisch6 You also did a great job on your blog :D
I currently am finished with Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick. Papa George(A guy Hugo got in trouble with earlier, the toy maker) is actually the legendary filmmaker George Melies, and the builder of Hugo's automoton. Melies' dreams were crushed in a war and he no longer believes in happy endings. When Hugo tries to return the rebuilt automoton to Melies, it is destroyed during a chase with the Station Inspector, who ends up saving Hugo from being crushed by a train. Although the automoton is broken once again, the fact that Hugo reintroduced Melies to his films and automoton is enough to re inspire Melies, so he adopts Hugo and returns to the public eye where his films are widely recognized and all who crossed paths with Hugo end up happy. If i were in the story I wouldn't of been able to handle this whole situation because of just how crazy it is!
ALandi4: Great blog!
JSMith4: I read that book in 6th and it was really good!
I am currently reading football champion and the author's name of my book is Pat Hughes and I finished the book. An event in my book was that my character in middle school(8th grade)he broke his leg in a football game and couldn't play for the rest of the season. If that was me I would have went to the hospital. When I could walk I would put pressure on it to make it regain most or full strength in my leg again so I could play football. I would walk miles, run miles, or even crawl miles if I have to just to play football. Football is a challenging sport so you will get hurt but hopefully not to bad so you can play again.
alandi4 did a great summary
RRaisch6 did an awesome summary.
The book I am reading is "Far Far Away" by Tom Mcneal, page 105. A recent event was that Jeremy broke into the bakers house with his friend Ginger, and a few other girls. They plotted to put pop-rocks into the bakers cereal as a prank. Jeremy left the pop-rocks wrapper on the floor, left his shoe in the bakers yard, and left his house key in the bakers yard also. If I was in that position, I most likely would not have gone along with Ginger because I would have been scared to get in trouble. If I did go, I most likely would have been caught at the scene, instead of later, because I am very clumsy.
@RRaisch6 Wow, I probably would've done the same in that situation.
@alandi4 I've read that book before. Hope you like it!
The book I was reading was M or F? By Lisa Papademetriou, and I just finished it. A big issue that just happened towards the end was that Franny's best friend Marcus was pretending to be her online. If I was Franny's and I had just figured this out I would have probably reacted the same way she did.mi would be very mad and it would be hard for me to trust him again. I don't know if I would be about to trust him again.
@rraisch6 nice job ! keep up the good work !!
@tbanks3 great job ! sounds interesting !
I reading Dork in Disguise by Carol German.One situation i would have handled differently is when Jerry gets his cover blown by a girl named Jane. Jerry is starry at Craig, the coolest guy in school when Jane catches him starring.I would've played it off and kept walking but instead Jerry admitted to staring and got his cover blown. This book is very entertaining and i would recommend it to a friend.
@alandi great blob
keep up the good work @rraisch6
Im on page 118 of small as an elephant by Jennifer Richard Jacobson. One of the events that happened was that jack went to the library. he went to the library to see if he could have any other ideas of where his mother went. So jack did some research and got on something called youpage. Jack notice he received a message from nina who is his best friend. Ninas message said "how come ur not at school" and jack replies back to her. In this situation if it was me I wouldn't have replied back because she would as more questions and maybe we wonder if im telling the truth
Vnelson2- awesome job on your post !
Tullah3- keep up the good work with your blog.
I am currently reading The Fault In Our Stars by John Green and I am on page 235. The most recent thing that has happened is Hazel has found out that Gus cancer has came back. She wasn't mad at him for not telling her because she understood the position he was coming from. If I was in Hazel's position, I would've tried my hardest not to cry in front of him, but i would end up bursting into tears. I think Hazel is strong for not crying because finding out that the person you love has cancer is a hard pill to swallow. I don't think I would take the situation as good as she did because she also has cancer so she understands how Gus is feeling, but I don't have cancer so I don't think I would be able to be as calm as her.
RRaisch6
Your book seems interesting and I understand your position.

Good Job:)
I am finished with my book "The Big Time" by Tim Green. One of the main events in that book was Troy's dad shows up in his life for the first time ever. He was at Seth Holloway's door, who is Troy's mom's boyfriend, and is saying that he's sorry for not coming into his life sooner. He said he didn't even know Troy existed. His mom didn't trust him and was yelling at him to leave. Troy didn't say anything though. If that was me I would've had mixed emotions. I would've been happy that I finally got to meet my dad, sad that my parents are arguing, and mad because my mom is telling him to go away. But, unlike Troy, I would've said something about it. I wouldn't have ever let my dad, who I just met, leave without knowing for sure I was going to see him again.
@tdavis3 I liked when you said, "a hard pill to swallow", nice choice of words.
@aladi4 I think I would do the same thing.
The book I am currently reading is Trails and Targets by Kelly Eileen Hake and I am on page 205. Recently in my book Beatrix Darlyn was challenged to a duel by the towns banker. She couldn't say no but she could'nt possibly say no either because he was offering a lot of money to the winner. Her and her family needed that money so they can keep their family farm. Personally if I were her I would know that I am a much better shot than my banker. So if it was my family farms last hope i would have competed in the duel.
@alandi4 fabulous blog you did marvelous
@RRaisch6 great job i enjoyed reading your post
I’m currently reading it’s a mall would after all by Janette Rallison,
And I’m on page 314. The problem in the story is that the main character in the story’s
Best friend’s boyfriend is talking to another girl. If I was the main character and I saw this, I would
Tell her .if she didn’t believe me I would get me mad because she is supposed to be her best friend.
And instead of listing to me she gets mad at me, so I would just know she’s not my real friend
@RRaisch6 awesome post keep doing what you're doing

I am reading The dangerous days of Daniel X by James Patterson, on pg.59. One recent event that happened in the book was when Daniel heard a knock on the door and knew it was the police. He was scared because he had no parents and he couldn't blow his cover. He has encountered this situation many times. Since he has powers he brings his parents back just for situations like these. I had to handle a situation like this one I would disguised myself as an older person. This is what I would do since I wouldn't have powers like Daniel.
Nice blog alandi4, keep up the good work.
Great blog RRaisch6, keep up the good work.
I am reading A Child Called "It" by Dave Pelzer and im on page 30. One curernt even in my book is the child, fifth grade David Pelzer, is being beat by his mother for taking a few second break from doing dishes. If I were in that situation i would have probably fought back. Either that or i would have told someone to get me out of there. Then again, me in fifth grade probably woudnt have handled the situation that well.
@tdavis3 Good Metaphorical language and I agree. When i found out my grandma had cancer it was and still is an emotional thought and insane reality.
@mmoss6 A book about baseball is definitely a book for you. Good job!
I'm reading Ranger's Apprentice fourth book by John Flanagan and I've finished the book. A recent event in the book is that the Temujai have decided to invade Skandia. I don't really know what I would do but one thing's for sure! I wouldn't do what Halt and Will did. I think I would have set up a defensive position but I would make a small group of archers. I would also build up on our weapons. As many as we could make before the invaders get there. Then I would set up the Skandians in a formation that restrict the movement of the cavalry. Then I would have the archers in a high place and have them rain arrows at the enemies.
thats cool alandi4
thats sounds cool RRaisch6
I'm currently reading The Kill Order by James Dashner and I'm on page 100. The most recent event that occurred in my book despite of the sun Flares is the surge of a tsunami. The way they handled it was huddling in a room far underground. If I was in the book I would've done the same, honestly because since the water would seek out and drown everything in its path by the time the water soaks into the ground it won't reach the room far underneath.
Aparker5 interesting blog
Cmcknight4 very detailed, keep it up
I am reading the book pretty ugly and I am currently on page 168 and the author of the book is Karyn Langhorne Folan.A problem that occurred in the book was Jamie kept getting called her sister and getting told her flaws and being compared to her. the way I would have handled it was going to tell my sister to stop telling everyone that we are sisters and maybe that would stop the problem.
great job alandi4 keep it up.
nice blog rraisch6 love the details.
I just finished reading I am Number Four by Pitacus Lore. Towards the end of my story the main characters guardian, Henri, dies. If I were Four I probably would've taken this pretty hard, but known that he'd have wanted me to keep fighting on. To be in his difficult position in life, and have what's basically my dad die would be unimaginably horrifying. I think Four took it well considering he was even able to carry on after Henri died.
@RRaisch6 This book sounds like a super girly book, but I'm sure its interesting haha. Good Blog
@alandi4 Great book! I'm sure you'll enjoy its ending, and good blog!
I’m reading “The son ‘’ by Lois Lowry. I am on page 45. The people are telling her that she is not allowed to see or touch her baby and she has to leave the “ birth Unit “ because she “unsuccessfully “ delivered a baby that has to be checked upon. Keep in mind that she hasn’t been taking her medicine that keeps her from having feelings. Claire loves her baby and she wants to see her baby grow up! but they won’t let her .Claire leaves the birthing unit and she tries to find a way to see her baby if she don’t take her medicine and stay away from the baby she will be sent to elsewhere as they say , but it really means death . if I was I the situation I would risk my life also a baby is something that people should treasure
@tfoye6 awesome blog ! you did wonderful hope you're enjoying your book.
@ RRaisch6 good job when i first was reading it i thought that it said "Kanye West ". lol
I am reading "The Open Window" by Lemony Snicket and am currently done with it. One recent event that happened in my book would be the part where Count Olaf pushes aunt Josephine into a lake filled with leeches and she dies. The orphans had to watch helplessly while she died. if I were in the orphans position I would do the same because there would be nothing I'd be able to do. I mean its not like I would have been able to jump into the lake and save her.
Tsfuller6 great job I can relate to that!
great job! jsmith4
The book I'm currently reading is The Rivalry by Mike lupica and I'm currently on page 75.And there's two news reporter in the story.And they were both really good at what they did.And I believe I would've done better if I were in one of there positions because I would've solve all the problems faster.And I would've done everything right and finished faster.
Great book and good details alandi4
I like your book and nice description RRaishch6
I am reading "Stung" by Bethenny Wiggins and I am on page 44. The part that I would like to go back to and change is the part when the main character found another character and when she handled that situation. The main character just woke up and don't remember any thing and she has this new character that she follows. Her name is Arrin. If u was the main character and I met Arrin I would have asked her so many questions to fit in the situation. The main character didn't ask nothing but just followed Arrin lead.
Great job on answering your blog skkeys
Awesome job at answering your blog XMatos5
Eldest. Christapher Paolini. pg 334
recently in my book Eragon has embarked on a long journey, if I was in this position i would most likely get tired very fast. also back at dragons home town his cousin is fighting the razac. two very mysterious beings that have been tormenting the village. if i was in the position i would be scared and also i would want to fight back.
I am finished with my book The Underdogs by Mike Lupica. There are 280 pages. Will's best friend and QB of his football team is moving away because his dad got a better job in Nevada. Since he is moving that means he cannot play football for the team anymore. If it was me in the situation i would ask his parents to see if he could stay with me until the season was over and than he could move to Nevada.
good job on your blog @alandi4
nice job @elangford6
I am currently reading the book Seal Team:6 I am on page 11. One major event that happened in my book is that one soldier had to let his teamate die because the mission was on a timed schedule . If I were there I would have changed it by saving my teamate's life first.Then I would have proceeded to the objective. Also becuase their motto is no man left behind so there should be no letting him die. Last but not least letting a man die is just not right no matter what the reason.
Currently I am reading “The Hunger Games” by Suzanne Collins and I’m on page number 53. A recent event that happened in the book is Katniss and Peeta being chosen as the tributes for the Hunger Games and separated from their families. I would have probably handled it by listening to my mother cry her tears for me and I would proceed to the stage as quickly as I could and then I would wait for whoever would be chosen for the male tribute. After hearing the names called I would be rushed to the place where people could say their goodbyes and such and I would go through that, knowing that these were going to most likely be my last few words spoken to the people who came by. But in Katniss’s version they end the goodbyes too soon and Gale is dragged outside of the room and she can’t hear what he was going to say. If that happened to me I would be struggling to hear what someone said as the peacekeepers tried to hold me back. There might be some thrown punches as I try to get to my friend.
@hmaestre3 - I keep seeing so many people reading that book and I really wanna read it
@hwerther3 - Ender's Game is a pretty cool book, I read it a while ago
I am currently reading "Lock & Key" by Sarah Dessen, I am on page 208. A situation I had read about in the book recently was that the main character, Ruby, had just gotten a job at a store in the mall and her older sister wasn't approving which made them get into a argument because her older sister thought it would be getting in the way of Ruby's school work. If it was me I wouldn't of kept arguing with my sister, I would have told her I would work equally as hard in school as I am at work. If she wouldn't of agreed then I would of made a deal that if my work got in between my school then I would quit my job. Ruby on the other hand just kept arguing until her sister caved in. I believe I could of handled the situation better than Ruby.
@sbrown4 Amazing job!
@dkeaton4 Keep up the good work!
I am reading "last stand of fox company", and i'm on page 123. a main event in the book is when the Vietnamese ambush 51 marines. the marines were ambushed because the Vietnamese were trying to gain more land. if i were a marine in this situation i would be scared but i would try to remember my training.
@alandi4 your book seems interesting.
