I just finished my book and i cannot believe how good it was. Books like the one i just read remind me of why i love to read so much. When i get lost in the world of the book and nothing can take me out until i read at least 20 chapters then i look at the clock and realize that it has been two hours. This is my last blog of the year officially for school. But i know for a fact i will be reading a lot over the summer so who knows maybe i will continue to blog also. I really enjoy typing all my thoughts down and sharing them with the world it also really helps me think and anylize my book and understand it more.

while reading my book i came across a very interesting quote it reads "He just spoke out against his own leaders so casually i almost missed it. I wonder if that's the kind of place this is- where dissent can be expressed in public". I thought this was interesting because because it shows how important out freedom of speech really is (not to get to patriotic with you). Even though it was a slight nod from the reader it really stick in my brain for some reason. Because i started to think there are country's in the real world that cannot really say what they think in fear that they might be punished for it. I think things like that is what really makes me enjoy my book, little hints to problems in the real world through a world that is made up.

HUGE SPOILER ALERT AHEAD!!!!!! i have been addicted to allegation and i have found out so much by just reading a chapter. Veronica Roth is really wrapping everything up in the series and it is all coming into view. Like i said in the first sentence i am giving away big parts of the book here so if you have gotten to page 176 yet then i suggest you stop reading now. As the people in the real world are explaining things i found out everything is about this genetic healing idea, the factions the test and the serums are all part of it. I was starting to wonder if Veronica Roth knew about this part of the story since the beginning or if she is just making it up as she goes. Because if this is all planned out she is one crazy smart writer

In my book they have recently started talking about genetic transferring and mutating. I think this is a really interesting topic and worth blogging about. I also read a article about how scientist in the real world are genetically changing how monkeys and other animals turn out when they grow up. This article also stated that they can probably use this technology on humans in the next ten years. So you will be able to pick what your kid is good at in life. For instants you can have a smart kid or a athletic kid or a small kid or a tall kid, you get to choose whatever you want. I think that this is interesting because you can really change what your child will be like in the further and i don't know yet if that much power is a good or bad thing.

As i am continuing to read my book i am getting more disappointed with it the longer i continue to read. The first two books in the series where really really good and i enjoyed them a lot. The beginning of this book was also really good but as it progressed the main character named Tris just becomes more and more of a brat. I feel like she is just constantly whining and complaining about everything. She had some of these traits before in the series but now they are amplified to level 10 and i cant stand it. But i am a person that finishes what he starts so i am going to finish the book and the series as soon as possible.

Final Blogging Assesment in English 1B

I have now started to read Allaigent again and it is amazing book. I cant put it down, During second bell the teacher yelled at me because i was reading while she was talking. Since I am thinking about this book so much i have to blog about it and in doing that i am going to give away a lot of spoiler. So for anyone who does not want the book spoiled stop reading this blog now. So to inform you where i am i just reached the part in the book where Tris, Four and others wounderd out of the city and have met the people who have taken them to there headquarters in an old Airport. i really like how Veronica Roth puts Tris in out world making it seem like she is real on example of that is in this quote, 'The concrete walls hold my attention-they are covered with strange pictures of people with skin so smooth they hardly look like people anymore, or colorful bottles with shampoo or conditioner or vitamins or unfamiliar substances inside them, words i don't understand, 'vodka' and 'Coca-cola' and 'energy drink'." (Roth page 103) But it also leaves me with so many questions, Like what happened to the world? why did theses people not go into the city also? how are they still alive after so long? since they still are alive why did they put people into a separate city? where exactly are they right now? As you can see i have a lot of questions i need answered so hopefully i will get some time to read so i can figure them out.

starting insurgent

I recently finished my book called lone surviver and it was really good. but you will have to look at my other pos to find out more about that. I have been looking for a new book latly becuse i love to read. Then I remembered that I started insurgent but i never got around to finishing it. In case you dont know Insurgent is the 3rd book in the divergent series. I already read the first two in the series and they where really good. It had a strong message of facing your fears and i also like how they have a really strong female protagnist, It really mixes things up. I have already read the first 100 or more pages and it started off pretty slow. I cant tell you alot about it becuse it will give away ALOT of spoilers for the first two books. I cant recall why i stoped reading the book but i am glad that i am picking it back up to finish this series, Hopefully i will end really good.
