He lives in a town that burns books and books are illage to read. At first he just hid books in his house and did not read them. Then he met this girl who changed his life forever. She makes him start thinking about is this really what he wants. Her deepest question to Montage was are you happy.

He tells Mildred his wife that he has the books. Mildred and montage start to read the books. Montage gets a call for his fire station to come burn his house. Montage went from just haveing books to reading them just because some girl started to make him think.

I have started reading the education of little tree by Forrest Carter. This book was written in 1976 about a young boy named Little Tree. He had just found out that his mother died and he was being raised by his grandparents. On his way to his new house he was sitting on the bus with his grandparents. He experienced some racism you could say but he did  not really realize it. The bus driver and the people on the bus where being racist and making racist Indian sounds towards Little Tree and his grandparents.



Little Trees grandparents live in a cabin on the top of a mountain. Little Trees grandpa is one with the mountain. He talks to the mountain just like the mountain talks to him. He communicates with the trees and the life all throughout the mountain. Will Little Tree find his way with the mountain. Will the mountain find its way with Little Tree.

I just got done reading Romeo and Juliet. I like how it ended but not how I thought it was going to end.  I thought that Romeo was just going to go the Juliet grave and lay on top of it and drink the potion and die. I did not think that there where going to be any other people. I was surprised that Romeo got caught trying to "break" into Juliet toom. I thought it was very interesting that Juliet did not freak out when she found out that she was in her toom. Before she drank the sleeping potion she was like freaking out because she was scared to wake up in a toom.
 
Romeo never did find out that Juliet was not dead. Juliet never really knew Romeo true intentions. I think this was really funny that they both died for fake reason.

I started reading the book in the Alex rider series called storm breaker. It is about a kid named Alex who finds out his uncle and adopted parent Ian rider has died. They where said to have died in a car accident and where not wearing seat belts. Alan Blunt who he describes as a boring person with nothing going on. Alex cuts school to investigate. He finds his uncles car at a junk yard and finds bullet holes in the win shield. The car had not yet been destroyed.
He was asked to come to his uncles bank to get some stuff. Right by the bank their was a spy building called M16. I really have enjoyed this book so far. The first chapter kept you on your feet. I plan to continue with the book. I have herd that the other books in the series get boring and are not very good. I like the first book and maybe read the other books in the series.

     One thing I struggled with during my blogging experience was the fact that I had to get back into reading everyday. During the summer I don't read unless it is in a magazine or a sports article. I over came it by talking to my touter about what a good book would be. She gave me a book and I just started reading. I got into it and before I knew it I was done with the book series. I read all the books and liked them all. I think it help that it was a series of books so that I always had something to read next. One strenght I had with my blogging was getting my words down on the page. I was able to say what I wanted to say about the book because I was so into the book and always had something positive to say about it.

     I blogged a total of nine blog post and I feel that this one was the best. http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3613294910540649325#editor/target=post;postID=2424147425869899007;onPublishedMenu=allposts;onClosedMenu=allposts;postNum=1;src=postname    
The blog was my best because I was able to give a full summary of the series. I was able to give full character analyze. For example, "The youngest was a kid name Fu. He mastered the fighting style of a tiger. He was young and hot headed, he has a short fuse." All in one sentence I was able to tell all the important parts of the character and tell the read in one sentence.  Also my video I used went well with my blog because, the video was about the series and my blog was about the series.

     Some goals I have for myself for next trimester and my blogging is to read more. I want to be reading every night not just when I remember to. I want to get better at using my good reads account. Lastly I want to get better at blogging in general. I would like my blogs to be longer and more through. My goals for writing my blogs is to get better at using the spell check. I don't always remember to use the spell check and I normally have alot of miss spelled words. I would really like to get better at my use of words. Like instead of using the same words I want to us synonyms instead.
