Week 8 Tuesday

I am reading Voyage of The Dawn Treader. I am enjoying this book very much. Eustace has turned into a dragon and they are trying to find a way to cure him. So far I have made it through half-way of the book. It is really good and I can't wait to see the movie!

I am reading this book before I go see the movie. I hope to finish it soon so I can go see the movie as soon as possible. I have found out it is 9 AR points! If I get 100% I will have 13 points. Not to far from my goal. King Caspian, Edmund, Lucy, Eustace, and Reepicheap the mouse have all been captured by slave traders.

Week 6 Monday

I am reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader right now. I want to finish it before I see the movie. I may stop to read another book I plan to read, but I will continue to read it soon enough. I have yet to check the AR points on it, but I seem to remember it being 5 points. I enjoy C. S. Lewis's works. I am not far in the beginning. They just entered the painting.

Week 5

Again I have read nothing. Although, I talked to Wes and he should tell you about the book tomorrow. If you do not approve it by next Sunday I will just get another book. However, reading this book would help me get my AR goal and it is a series which would really help me out. Plus I enjoy the war-time fiction stories like this story produces.

Week 4 Tuesday- Catching Fire

Pgs read 335-end- Katniss has been captured! But not in the way you would think! She has been captured by a rebellion! Although she fight and screams she eventually becomes accustomed to this place. When they reveal they are going to District 13 or "The District in Ruins". Katniss has figured that the massacre in District 13 must not have completely destroyed everything if there are people and plot of rebellion. As Katniss awakes one last time before the book ends she discovers that Gale has also come aboard and has come to Katniss' aid! But when she asks if Prim and her mother is okay. Gale gives her a look of grief. She ask again and he tells her on how the Capitol has dropped firebombs on District 12 explaining the burn marks he has. Tears fill he eyes and she asks one more time, this time demanding an answer! He can only look up and say "Katniss, there is no more District 12."

Left Behind: The Kids (Book 2)

In this story the rapture has just happened and it is all starting to unwind for four teenagers, all left behind and are forced to care for each other. They must all accept Jesus as they work for let alone survival! I highly recommend this book for many kids who enjoyed the Left Behind books. Or anyone that would enjoy the Left Behind books but, would want to read something more on their level or just want to read something small than the Left Behind books with the same message.
