City of Bones

     Hello, this week I read City of Bones by Cassandra Clare. It's about a girl named Clary who finds out her mom's secret past. A song that would describe Alec, one of the main characters, is Lean on Me by Bill Withers. This is so because; Alec is always there when his friends need him. A song that would describe Isabelle, Alec's sister, is Can't Be Tamed by Miley Cyrus. I picked this song because she doesn't let anyone change who she is and how she acts. The song Fidelity by Regina Spektor describes Clary, another one of the main characters. I chose this song for her, because it describes her messed up loved life and the many problems that she faces. The last song on my playlist is Chariots of Fire by Vangelis. This song describes the end of every fighting scene, because in my mind, I can picture the shadowhunters walking away in slow-motion from every fight, well if they weren't injured to badly. Just to let everyone know, I would highly recommend this series to anyone who likes fast paced fantasies.

Alex & Me

          Hey, again, this week I read Alex & Me. The one character I would like to meet, out of the two characters so far, is Alex. He was an African Gray parrot who knew colors, shapes, and atleast one-hundred english words. If I met him I would probrobly ask him what it's like to fly, if he ever wanted to be a human, and if he ever gets insulted when people use the phrse "You're a birdbrain." I would also ask him if he knows that he is smarter than most of his fellow birds and if he can paint the colors and shapes he knew.

First Book Blog

This week I read The War Between the Pitiful Teachers and the Splendid Kids by Stanley Kiesel. This book is about a kid named Skinny starting a war between the kids and teachers of the country. The characters in this book aren't realistic. I mean come on, have you ever heard of kids creating a full scale war against teachers, there are two characters in particular that make this true.

They are Big Alice and Mr.Foreclosure. Big Alice is a girl who was raised by a wild pack of hyenas. She had spent so much time with them she started growing a tail. Mr. Foreclosure is a red ant who speaks many different languages including English. This little ant has gone through all of the school in a kids pocket.

The best book that I read this year was Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. It is about Katniss and Peta's second time in the hunger games. While in the training room Katniss and Peta both do things that could cause them to lose sponsors. What they did ended up getting them more sponsors then they could ever imagine. So far I have read probably around ,I don't know, sixty to seventy some books.
