THE SCORCH TIRALS BY JAMES DASHNER WAS A REALLY GOOD BOOK THAT I REALLY ENJOYED READING BECAUSE OF THE JOURNEY THAT TERESA AND THOMAS NEED TO MAKE. THE STORY TAKES PLACE AT THE SCORCH, A DESERT THAT THE GLADERS NEED TO CROSS TO GET SAFE TO HEAVEN AND GET THE CURE FROM THE FLARE. TERESA AND THOMAS ARE PARTED AWAY AT THE BEGINNING OF THE STORY AND THEY DO THE JOURNEY APART FROM EACH OTHER, THOMAS GOES WITH MINHO, NEWT, AND MEETS BRENDA AND JORGE THROUGHOUT THEIR WAY. BUT THE DANGERS INSIDE THE SCORCH ARE RISKING THEIR LIVES WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO CROSS.

This Quarter I read the book "The Hunger Games" By: suzanne collins. It is about a girl named Katniss Everdeen that lived in District 12, who lived with her little sister, Primrose and her mother. The Hunger Games were about to happen, so the capitol had to go to each district to choose two tributes from each. Meanwhile, Katniss was fighting for survival in her district, which was suffering from starvation. In the selection ceremony, peeta melark and primrose, her siter were chosen, but katniss had to volunteer as a tribute, because she knew her sister wouldn't survive. She has to say a quick goodbye which was hard. Arriving to the capitol, katniss discovers lots of technology, new things, and meets new people such as haymith, cinna, etc. The capitol the first days to some tests to grade your abilities and from one to ten, katniss got an eleven. When the day of the games came, katniss was really nervous and scared, she had to go now so she says goodbye and goes in the elevator to the isolation area. In a minute lots of people died but she didn't kill, or saved anyone, she just ran. as time goes by in the games, katniss finds allies, one of them was rue, a little girl, and also enemies, which was the group that peeta mellark stood save. Then rue dies trying to help, and katniss is alone, but peeta isn't with the other districts anymore so she finds him and they both find their love connection and try to survive together. finally the last day, peeta and katniss had to kill the tribute from district 2 and they both won the games, so they come home proudly and fully in love. THE END |
My main focus on the story Raymond's Run is that I didn´t like that Squeaky was so selfish and she thought that she was the best and perfect, when she wasn't. This story is really is really interesting because we could see a really mean girl and her changes in emotions. It has lots of messages because from he beggining we could see a selfish and "perfect" girl who didn't care about others, but then she gives others a chance and changes a little bit my perspective about herself. Gretchen and Squeaky meet each other and get a chance to learn things about each other to have a better relationship. Gretchen and Squeaky were both really competitive so feel obligated to change because the situation between them was horrible, so they tryied, and made it. Squeaky isn't that perfect and great person that she says she is, but all people change and Squeaky tryied, even though I dot change my opinion about her.
