The raft
This book is about a young girl who is about 15 years old named Robie.
She lives in Hawaii in midway. Robie goes to her aunts apartment in
Honolulu Hawaii. She explains how this is her "off time" from her
parents. She originally lives in Midway and it is suppose to be a
"lucky" area to live, I interrupt it as being wealthy. Robie hates it
because there is no Wi-Fi, internet and television and because she is on
an island its hard to communicate with her friends... we can all admit
that this would be hard for us these days right?
Robie soon finds out
that her aunt has some business to take care of and that she would have
to stay at the apartment all by herself. Robie finds no problem with
that, she would be more than happy to be alone until that night she goes
out to get Mcdonald's and when she is walking back on a busy street a
dirty man tries and tackles her, she manages to run and get away.
I can make a text-to-world connection to this book because there is
always one big plane crash a year and one happened not to long ago in
July with the Malaysia flight 370. That was a huge story and case that
was investigated. The tragedy happened over the Indian Ocean and in this
book the crash happened over the Pacific ocean and its about surviving
with no commutation food or anything of that sort. Overall I think this
book is going to be fantastic and a good read. It seems like a easy
read and its not that long of a book compared to some other books, it
only 231 pages.
I recommend you to read this book even though I'm not
finished with it but I can tell you already it's going to be a good one.

Water Walker - Text to World
Eden is hurt/confused with no way out. Water Walker by Ted Dekker has the tables turning when you least expect it. Zeke (someone living with them) broke Edens leg and locked her in a closet. Her mom is scared and didn't want any of this to happen. Eden, as she is sleeping meets the "Outlaw" a man who tells her she is a water walker, and she needs to have no fear. Confused on what happened in her dream and in real life, she realizes her leg was healed. All she needs to do is unlock her potential and end the plans of Zeke.
This reminds me of a time in history when a girl was kidnapped for years. She got tired of it and fought back from her kidnapper and was able to escape. This is similar to Water Walker because Eden and her mother overthrow Zeke and get the cops to find them. Also, this reminds me of the boy who claimed he saw heaven and came back. Eden does this in her dream and comes back to be able to walk on water.
I wish that Eden and her mother stay together after all of this trouble. I was surprised to see the Outlaw in her dream, and for her dream to be real. If I was Eden I would just walk out of the entire place due to all of the confusion.

Warriors: Midnight- Text to World
I am reading the book called Warriors Midnight by Erin Hunter. This book is mainly about a cat named Brambleclaw and five other cats. After receiving a prophecy from Starclan, they must journey to the Sun Drown place (Ocean) to speak to someone named Midnight. There were only four cats chosen one from each clan, Feathertail (Riverclan),Crowpaw (Windclan), Tawnypelt (Shadowclan), and Brambleclaw (Thunderclan). But some unexpected guests decide to tag along, Stormfur and Squirrelpaw. Now I would tell you about Midnight but that would spoil the book so, yeah not gonna tell you.
A way that Warriors: Midnight is connected to the world well the entire Warriors franchise reminds me of the Civil War. Why? Well it reminds me of the Civil War because they are all supposed to get along, but no they end up fighting each other at the wrong times. Starclan means for them to be on huge group but, they decide to leave and make groups of their own. Eventually they will be forced to unite as one and be a huge group. But hey i'm not the author so I will never know.
So this book blew my mind when I finished it. But I ain't gonna tell you what happens. Honestly, my favorite character so far is definitely either Purdy or Squirrelpaw. I like Purdy because he is old and has absolutely no clue what is going on. I also like Squirrelpaw because its Squirrelpaw, and she wishes to be a bird so yeah. This book isn't as violent as the other book, I mean this is the first book without a death on the very first page! So you should definitely read this book if you like sarcastic humor and adventure.

Text to World Connection- the raft
In my book, The Raft, a girl named Robie went to Honolulu to visit her Aunt Jillian, but then her aunt got a business call to go back to Midway Atoll. Robie begged AJ, aunt Jillian, to stay in Honolulu by herself. She finally got to stay. After a while, she booked a flight to go to Midway Atoll and her plane crashed! Now she has to survive with Max, the co-pilot, on a raft on the Pacific ocean.
This book reminds me of real world because planes crash and you have to hope to be saved and signal people. People have to survive on water because they either are stranded or maybe their plane crashed. This book also reminds me of the movie Sully because the plane crashes in water and people are trying to save them.
I began to think about how they crashed in the Pacific Ocean and how there are sharks. I think they might encounter some sharks and dehydration. I also wonder if they could survive these horrible conditions.

Ninth Ward
The book Ninth Ward is about a 12 year old girl named, Lanesha, she lives the Ninth Ward in New Orlens. She lives with her to her grandmother (because her mother died when she was born) in the poorer part of New Orlens, but the other members of her family live in the nice rich part of New Orleans. She is bullied at school because of her eyes and other features, but she doesn't care. One thing that is special about her is because she can see ghost. When a hurricane comes to New Orleans, Lanesha and her grandmother have to find a way to stay safe.
The Ninth Ward relates to the real world because it is about a family trying to stay safe during hurricane, Katrina. This book relates to the real world because hurricane Katrina was an acutel hurricane that is still one of the most remembered tropical storms in The United Staes. There were many families that were trying to save their friends and other family from the tropical storm, which Lanesha's family was trying to do. Many families came upon struggles in hurricane Katrina, but they could face them. I am only In the middle of the book where the storm is coming,but I have not heard about any problems or struggles that relate to the storm at this point.
The Ninth Ward is a great book to pair with the world. It is a great book to pair with the world because it is base a a true event that happend to millions of people. The book defiantly talks about most of th things that all families in New Orleans experience during one of the worst tropical storms Ed it's I. The United States.

I am reading My Hairiest Adventurers written by rlstine.com. My book relates to the really world because he is having a hared time at school when he finds out he has grown hair on his hands.He finds outta that it is his tern to do a book report in front of the entire class that he has hair all over his hand .So what he did was go out of class and get gloves from his locker.when he came back to class know one know test the nasty black hair on his hands.
What is weird about this story is that strange things happen to him as he grows up. When he was little the doctors found out that he can't sweat.So if he gets over heated it could really hurt him.As he got older he notes dogs had started chasing him for know resin.Few weeks after the dog intended he grow hair on his hand and ever time he shaves it of even more grows back. I have not read the whole book yet but it seems like he mite be a wolf.

Text to World Blog-Lunar Chronicles
The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer is all about bunch of different fair tales twisted and put in the future. The first book in the series is called Cinder about a cyborg named cinder who is pretty much Cinderella if you did not realizes. Then the next book is about Scarlet/Red Riding Hood and Wolf. The story is kind of similar to Little Red Riding Hood except the aliens and cyborgs. The next book is all about Cree who is almost completely like Rapunzel. She was locked up in a satellite to track down Cinder a Lunar fugitive and by the way Lunars are the aliens who live on Luna. Then there is Winter a girl who the stepdaughter of Queen Levena of Luna. They all work together to get Cinder the rightful are to the Lunar throne on the throne and stop Levena from taking over earth. This probably sounds like the weirdest story ever but it is awesome, full of action, adventure and a little love on the side.I definitely recommend this science fiction book to everyone.
The more minor problem on Luna is the discrimination towards Shells who are unable to be controlled manipulated by other Lunars. This is very similar to how people treated African-American people before the 60's when Martin Luther King Jr. helped stop discrimination to African-Americans. Cinder is almost a representation of him because she helps stop it and makes Luna and earth a better place to live. The Lunars also are mean and think humans are worthless. They are payed less than a Lunar who has the same job as them on Luna. This reminds me of how women are payed about a twenty percent less then men are payed in our society. This was not fixed in the story and in the real world. Levena also reminds me of Hitler who kept his followers stupid so they would follow him without thought. Levena does the same thing but in the end Cinder shows them what she really does.
I love the way the other took a bunch of fairy tales and makes them in the future, it makes the books even more interesting and exciting.I always felt sad if someone died or something terrible happened to a character but that very rarely happened in the books. The character I admire most is Scarlet because no matter what she does what is right, stand by her friends and never gives up a fight. This story is amazing you should definitely read it if you love science fiction or any fiction. This book seems like it would appeal more to girls but even if you are boy read it! This book helped me make lots of prediction and even think up some fan fiction. You will love this boo if you read it so do read it!

Blog 3 Text to World- Harry Potter
The book I am reading is called Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone by J.K. Rowling. It is about a boy who lives with the Dursleys. Harry is treated like junk there and never has celebrated his birthday. One day when he is turning 11 he gets a letter saying from Hogwarts that he was accepted at a school that teaches Witchcraft and Wizardry. His uncle keeps on burning the letters and won't let him go. At midnight he turns 11 and a giant named Hagrid takes Harry in and sends him to Hogwarts. Harry goes to Diagon Alley and gets all his supplies and sees in the newspaper that Gringotts bank has been robbed but nothing was stolen. Harry goes to Hogwarts and meets new friends and the goal of the year is to win the house cup by whoever has the most points. (You can earn points by being good) Through out the year Harry experiences weird things happening like a wizard trying to bring Voldemort, a dead wizard, who killed Harrys parents. If he manages to get the Sorcerers Stone there is no stopping him. (Tried to steal it in bank) It can make you live forever but with a cost. Harry and his friends have to stop the wizard from bringing Voldemort back and win the House Cup without failing their team.
The book I read reminds me of the world right now and before because in the book everyone comes together and puts an end to something. In some wars right now and before there has been alliances working together to stop the bad guy. In the book everyone at Hogwarts groups together and some help Harry on his quest to stop Voldemort from coming back and participating in the House Cup. In World war II countries came together to stop Hitler and put the end to The Holocaust. This is a good example because they collided and its perfect for seeing that some of this happened in the Harry Potter book.
Harry Potter is one of the best books I have ever read. There is so much to say about it I can't say it all. I wish I didn't have any homework so I could read it in 1 day. I loved the way J.K. Rowling organized the story and the plotline she made. This story teaches readers to never give up and never lose hope. I recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy genres. I would say this is for all people to read and everyone would enjoy it. If you want to find out if Harry can stop the wizard who is bringing Voldemort back to life and win the House Cup for his team you should read this book.
Text to World Connection: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
Have you ever met anyone who seems peculiar? Like a boy with the body of a dog, two unusual clown twins, a levitating girl, and maybe even an invisible boy? Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, by Ransom Riggs, is about a sixteen year old boy named Jacob Portman whose grandfather (Grandpa Portman) is old and seems a little confused. All of Jacob's life, Grandpa Portman tells Jacob stories of when he was a boy. He used to live in Poland during World War II, where monsters chased him away from his family and he had to run away. He wound up on an island called Cairnholm, Cairnholm harbored Miss Peregrine's orphanage, where Grandpa Portman stayed till he was probably Jacob's age. On this island, you never age. To get back to reality, Grandpa Portman calls Jacob while Jacob's at work and tells him that monsters are coming for him. Of course, Jacob doesn't believe him anymore since he's older now. Grandpa Portman insists that Jacob unlocks his gun cabinet (which Jacob's father locked so Grandpa Portman couldn't get to it) so he can defend himself. Jacob said to calm down, he would not unlock the cabinte, and he will be on his way in a minute. His friend, Ricky, shows up and drives Jacob to his grandfather's. When they get there, Jacob goes in the house and Grandpa Portman is nowhere to be seen. He fled the seen with papers a strewn all over the house, cabinets open, furniture ripped open, and the gun cabinet dented. Jacob looks at the screen door in the back and sees a huge gash in it. Jacob immediately starts running to the forest behind Grandpa Portman's house and looks for him. He runs through a crowd of bushes and finds Grandpa Portman laying face down, bleeding out and dying. Jacob runs to him and holds him up. Grandpa Portman says his last words by telling Jacob to go to the island and gives him a lot of tiny clues that Jacob will eventually find. What will happen next?
This book is related to another past event in history. Specifically, during World War II. Like in Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, World War II had many kids who got seperated from their families during that time period because of the Nazis invasion. In the book, Abe Portman (Gradnpa Portman) ended up on Cairholm island to stay with Miss Peregrine. During World War II, many kids were sent off to live somewhere else to get away from the counrties being invaded. In the book, Abe was sent off with only a suitcase and the clothes on his back and never saw his parents again. During World War II, parents sent off their kids to have a good life and knew that they weren't going to make it. Truly, that is so sad to think about.
I love the way the author described the sorrow Grandpa Portman had when he told Jacob about his childhood. Although, Grandpa Portman only revealed a tiny bit of information which kept you more interested in why he didn't tell Jacob everything. Ransom Riggs really got me intrigued till the very end. He did a great job relating the story with real life history events. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is an amazing, thrilling, fantastic book that you have to read.

Text to World / Nevermore
Nevermore
The book i'm reading is Nevermore by James Patterson , and in this book the main character Max figures out she has been living in lies from the world and her closest of friends are keeping deep and dangerous secrets from her. Max and her friends (Dlyan, Fang, Nudge, Iggy, Gazzy) are now going on a trip to find a long lost friend named Angel she was a member of there pack and they have now figured out that mad scientist have been using her for experiments. When they arrived at the Lab they found Angel traumatize and worried her wings were cut off but in relief she figures out the scientist put a drug to hallucinate the torture. When they get back to there house in Nino Pierpont Max is dealing with the pressure of Fangs arrival, fining Angel ,Max's and connection with Dylan. I moments later Max's evil half brother and Jeb found her and her friends, Max does everything to protect her and her pack, including nocking out Jeb with one punch. But during the fight Dylan was missing so Fang was fighting Ari. When Dylan arrived he swooped in and took Fang away from Ari to fight. Fang not done with Ari but very hurt he stays to protect Max. Max worried about Dylan and Fangs condition stops fighting . While the rest of the pack fights but isn't able to hold them off. Max notices Dylan fighting Ari and sees his injuries and gets very worried but is way to distracted with Ari's minions (Erasers). Dylan trying to stay alive is having a hard time with Ari but hears a voice that tells him to finish Ari for Max. Right at that moment he punches Ari and wipes him out. Max going to attack the Erasers then figures out that they were some how connected to Ari and Died when Ari did. Dylan is really satisfied , but hears the voice angina and it tells him to attack Fang. So that's what he did, then see's Max crying telling him to stop. When Dylan finally removed his fingers from Fangs neck , then realize what he did and leaves in a hurry because Max yelled at him. There is still a lot of more have not been able to finish it.
Nevermore is connected to the world by the setting and problem. In the book the setting is in the state Oregon which is a real state in America. The problem is connected to real world because every civilian has thought the government or other people are keeping death defining secrets. In Nevermore there was a war between Max and Ari but was resolved, that's like here we resolve are problems. The book Nevermore is quite familiar to the real world but is very different.
In the book Nevermore I like the way the author made the text so familiar to the real world but so very different. I noticed that Max is like and ordinary girl but different because she can fly. I wonder why the Author used such short names that are very different like Gazzy or Nudge? I would recommend this book to all ages , the author makes in familiar to all ages with the characters, problems and solution and I really enjoy that.

Blog 3
I am reading the book called The House Of Hades by Rick Riordan and it is about how Percy and Annabeth fall into Tartarus and have to reach the Doors Of Death to escape. The problem is that the Doors Of Death must be opened on both side so the other 5 teens go on a journey to find the doors of death so they can free Percy and Annabeth and stop the rise of Gaea.
This reminds me of the world because everyone must work together to accomplish something very important. Lets say that one country stop trading certain goods then this would cause a problem. This also reminds me of my friends because we all help each other to accomplish one huge goal! This why I think the house of hades is like the real world.
In conclusion The House Of Hades can be like other real world events such as trading and working with friends to accomplish a huge goal. This Is why the House Of Hades is like the Real World!

Jillian's Text To World Blog
Return Of The Mummy
This is not really connected to real life but it has some simaleraties. Some people believe if you say things more than once or as many times you shouldn't. But this book as a similar kinda thing, if you say something more than once or three times. The mithacal monster came alive after it was said at least five times then it had came alive, as some people if you say it more than once.
Also some people have visited Egypt perymids and have not discovered whats in them but have took pictures of the perymids, as in the story. Some people have gone in the periymds to discover where and what might be in them, as in the story.

TEXT TO WORLD BLOG
For this blog, I will be doing a Text To World comparison. In my book, The Kill Order, the main problem is a disease. The characters, Mark and Alec, must make it to the mysterious "Headquarters" of the PFC. They need to take another girl, DeeDee, there because she is immune to the flare. They face many obstacles on their way, including the Flare and sun radiation.
The Flare is a strange, futuristic, manmade disease first given out as population control in the form of infected darts. The Flare, once it infected you, turned you crazy. Sometimes, to the point where you are not even human anymore. At first, it would kill you instantly, but others could catch the disease around your body. Then, The Flare evolved to infect you for longer before killing you, making itself spread more efficiently. Some people, called Munies, are immune to the flare.
I am comparing this crazy, unrealistic disease to another disease in real life - Cancer. Cancer can't spread, but is still deadly. Cancer can be treated, and so can the flare, though both have a high cure rate. Both have physical symptoms, and both have mental symptoms. Both of them infect cells in your body. The Flare infects only your brain, and some types of Cancer infect your brain.
As you can see, the dystopian, fictional disease does, in fact, have similarities to real life. Though there are not many, they are still there. I hope you enjoyed reading this essay! If you liked it, leave a comment down below. Can you think of any other similarities that The Flare has to the real world?

This story is about a girl Mila how is growing up with dolphins and trying to learn to speak. She is going throw lots of avengers and fingering out that she is a girl not a dolphin from being raised by them.She lives under water like a fish, she tried to eat what they eat and wants to be a dolphin but wonders if she will find her family.This story is very sad to see if she can find her family and scary when she has to go to get a way to shelter.I would say this book has changed the way I see serving an trying to find food in the wild life.

The book I am reading is Crossed by Ally Condie, this is the next book in the Matched trilogy. This book is about a Cassia being sent into the outer Providences and determined to find the one she loves, Ky. Even though she loves Xander too, her match, she wants to be with Ky more. Cassia secretly goes on an airship with a roommate and is sent closer to Ky, but she's not sure about that, yet. When she finally reunites with Ky, it's not the same as before. There's a secret that about Xander that will change her life forever.
When the village was attacked by the Enemy unexpectedly, is similar to when both the North and South World Trade Centers were hit by airplanes. It was a normal day for both of them, then the village was burned down to the ground and so were the Twin Towers. To add on to this, when Ky used the explosives to make the stream bigger, he ended up flooding two houses with all the water. This is like the floods that are happening in the South-East lately and people have no homes to go to anymore.
I wonder why Ky doesn't want anything to do with the Rising? I think it's because his father was in the Rising and he died having a meeting with all the people that believed he was the pilot. That means he might have been the leader of it all and the Rising are the people that are against the society. On the other hand I really liked Cassia finally found Ky down in the plains while she was up in he canyon. She pointed up into the sky just to make sure it was him and it was. I was surprised to see that the society kept all the DNA samples of all the people that are living there except for Aberrations and Anomalies. Then Hunter, a friend, smashed all of them because that's what he thought was right and everyone agreed with it.

http://sharondraper.com/ I am reading the book Out of my Mind, By:Sharon Draper. This is a story of a young girl who has life at the roughest. She can't go to the bathroom alone, she can't dress herself, she can't feed herself or hold a drink by herself. She has just a horrible life. The wants to speak so much and she is a very intelligent child, but due to her disability she can't show it. Her neighbor teaches her many valuable things, but one day she found something amazing for Melody. She found a machine that allows Melody to talk! Now she can talk and interact with talk with all the other normal kids in her class.
Many kids in the past and present have disabilities.In the past the doctors and medical people did not have very advanced medical supplies to help make life easier for those people. Now in the present, we have a ton of new medial supplies. For people in the military, when in battle, if they loose a leg or arm, we have a way to give them that body part back so they can function like everyone else. Sadly, we have no way to stop children and adults from having disabilities, but with all our medial research, we can help them live a normal life.
This story teaches that even if you have a rough life, it can always get better. I observed that Penny(her little sister) gets more attention from her mom and her mom leaves her dad to do everything for Melody. I felt sad when her mother was crying because of the way Melody turned up. I wish that there was a was to cure diversities, so that they could live a normal life.

blog 3-Princess Academy
My book is Princess Academy by Shannon Hale. This is a story about a girl named Miri that goes to an academy to become the princess and have the prince. She faces a challenge to save her classmates.She struggles to find the special idiom. She lives in a castle where she has her academy and tries to solve everything she runs into.
The problem in this story is to find the idiom that will save her friends and classmates and to become the princess. In real life doctors need to try to find something that will help people. They are both trying to find something and trying to serve others. This is simulator to the book because they are both doing close to the same thing, but very different at the same time.
This story teaches you to be strong and keep going even when its hard. Miri and doctors do this. They help out even when its hard, even when people are not believing.

Text To World Sky Raiders
The book that I am reading is called Five kingdoms by Brandon Mull. In the book Cole and his two best friends get kidnapped at a haunted house on Halloween. They make him go in a portal that leads to another land called The Outskirts. Their are five kingdoms in the land and the kingdom he went to was Sombria. He get sold as a slave to Sky Raiders who still valuable items from floating castles. But sadly his friends go to other masters. He finally escapes with his new best friends and tries to beat the evil monster Carnage that has been terrorizing the land. If you want to know what happens next you will need to read the book.
The problem in this book is vary similar to a world crises. In the book Cole gets kidnapped and that is a problem that happens in the world today. You could get kidnapped on Halloween in real life if you aren't careful. With Halloween coming in a month we need to be careful of what we do and we need to be prepared too.
I think the setting is important because if it was in are world then there would not be as much wonder and magic in the book. If it was intertwined with this world like Harry Potter then the author would half to make up something that enplanes why humans can see all that is happening. Like mist or dust or magic that makes you forget. One of the reason I relay like it is because it is original and you will too.

Text to World- The 5th Wave
I am reading the 5th Wave series by Rick Yancey. This story is about an alien invasion. Cassie Sullivan and her little brother, Sam, are trying to find each other. It is a tough challenge for Cassie to find Sam. She tries to stay hidden but finds trouble. She also battles a gunshot wound to her leg. But, will she survive long enough to see her brother again?
I can connect this book to War of the Worlds. When they made the live broadcast of War of the Worlds, people started to panic. In the 5th Wave, people started to panic when they saw the mothership for the first time. They really panicked when the first wave hit. In War of the Worlds, everything was fake, but in the 5th Wave, everything is really happening and the world is really ending.
In conclusion, War of the Worlds relates to the 5th Wave in many ways. Although it is hard to make connections to the real world with a book about an alien invasion, it's entirely possible. You just have to thinker deeper. I made connections to many different things such as, other books, movies, the real world, and myself. I definitely recommend this book.

Runaway Twin by: Peg Kehret- Text to World
I am reading the book called Runaway Twin by: Peg Kehret. This book is about a girl named Sunny that lost her twin sister . They were separated because their parents died when they were young and she wants to find her. Sunny lives in Nebraska and runs away from her foster home to Washington to try to find her sister. She takes a bus and walks all the way there. On the way, there is something life threatening that happens to Sunny! Will she find her sister or will she not make it and have to go back to Nebraska?
In Runaway Twin Sunny gets jumped and they almost take all of her money and in real life people steal from other people. Another connection is in real life people help animals just like in the book when Sunny helps a stray dog. Another connection I can make to the real world is that in real life people get in foster homes even if they don't treat them right and in the book Sunny got put in a foster home where she was treated like a slave. Those are a few of text to world connections.
I think this book had a lot of suspense and was interesting. I also think it had emotion which makes this book more fun to read. I hope you will try reading this book, it was a really good book.

Text to world Insurgent
The book I am reading is Insurgent by Veronica Roth. In the book the escape's have gone to 4 different places to hide and take refuge. Only 2 of the spots were safe from Erudite and Dauntless traitors. These two places were the Factionless buildings and the old Dauntless headquarters. When they were in Amity headquarters Erudite and Dauntless came to search for anyone who had escaped from the attack. At Candor headquarters a couple dozen Dauntless soldiers came to take Divergent hostages for Jeanine Matthews (Erudite leader).
This is happening in the world right now because some countries are having wars and are forcing people out of their homes. They are now coming to America and other countries that aren't by their old country. Now the military from other countries are illegally coming to search for them. People are losing their homes daily due to these conditions and horrible tragedies. People are also being executed and taken as hostage in other crimes that have happened over the years. The most recent up-rise like in Insurgent is with terrorist groups.
I hope that the killing and taking hostages would stop because once we grow up and are running the country and world it will be war-torn.

Text to text: The Midnight Library
The book The Midnight Library: Liar includes three separate ghost stories.The first one is called liar. When Lauren creates a lie, it comes back to haunt her and self creates a monster.
The second ghost story in the book is Tickets Please which is the shortest of them all and also happens to be the story that Katarina and I are doing a book review on. It is when two boys Craig and Brian get onto a train without valid tickets, hears some scary stories themselves and they end up at a very final destination. The last story in the book is the most long and most suspenseful.
Killing Time is about Alexis attending a dangerous drama class where the drama is no act.
Allen (the author) goes by many different names on the front cover of his books. The name that he uses for The Midnight Library:Liar is Damian Graves. He goes by many other different names as well.Some of them are unidentified names.
I love the way that there was three stories in the one book insted of it all just being together.

By:ERIN DIONNE
Book- Models Don't Eat Cookies
A summery what I have read in "models don't eat chocolate COOKIES" was a teenage girl Celeste who her mom would always go to the mall and by lotion and perfume and the place was called HUSKY PEACH. And the husky peach people had called the mom right after she got home and what they said was "hey this is the husky peach and since you've been coming to our store and buying stuff i want to let you know that i want your daughter to be in our modeling session and most often i don't do this to people but i want Celeste to be in it.The mom said of course i would love to have my daughter to be in it first ill call you later and talk to her and she said bye. The mom went in Celeste room and talk to her and Celeste said No. The mom went out of the room and called the modeling people and made Celeste do it but Celeste don't know.
So here's the quick summary of whats it about her mom signed Celeste up to do the modeling she got invited to another one and that one was called the husky peach so they went there then Celeste's mom made her do it and she said fine cause that's the only way that would make her become popular so she did it. Then she just eats tone of calories such as cookies and keeps eating it and realizes she is fat so then she exercises lout and then losses at least 20 pounds and so that way lively wouldn't make fun of her cause shes fat but when she used top be fat the husky peach made a new of her which means talk lot hows she fat in all but when she is skinny they don't really do anything now they would say just keep it up and do what your doing. So then she hears that her aunt is having a wedding ans notices she had a competition so then that day she does two things at once. And then that what the quick summary is about.
SO THEN THAT's WHEN THE MODEL DON'T EAT COOKIES ANYMORE !!!!

I am reading a book Goosebumps BY: R.L. Stine called Egg Monsters From Mars. The charterers in this book so far is Brandy,Dana,Anne,Mom,and Dad.

The Mark of Athena is unlike other books but it can be compared to so books in the world. The Mark Of Athena is like the Hunger Games by Suzzane Collins. The Hunger Games is about a girl named Katnis who gets picked for the annual hunger games. In this event you have to find weapons and survive the wilderness and try not to get killed by the other opponents. In the Mark Of Athena 7 teens embark on a journey to stop the rise of Gaea and the destruction of Rome. These teens are special because they are demi-gods so each one of them has special powers to help fight.
The Hunger Games reminds me of The Mark Of Athena because they both contain tons of action and fighting. In both story's there is tons of non-stop action and amazing fights that make you want to keep on reading and never stop. There also alike because Annabeth struggles to survive the obstacles in the way of reaching what she needs and she finds a way to survive. Katnis also finds a way to survive by using her survival skills and trying her hardest to survive.
In conclusion I think you should read both books because they are full of action and both are really interesting to read. This is why I think you should read this and how these two books are alike each other.
million dollar throw is gist lick million dollar arm and it is lick this kids that gone a football games.and this peephole and fined this kid that can throw and it is the this that need and they bet them back to there.and then if they dint now how to throw they treat them to throw and it was a good move

Water Walker - Ted Dekker
The book about mystery and confusion, Water Walker, by Ted Dekker, is a story about a girl learning about her past and who she is. Last time she got taken by her real father and had the F.B.I. searching for her. The police force had Alice/Eden slip through their fingers when they escaped by a few minutes to never be seen again. Alice/Eden has met her biological mother who is crazy about her being pure. Her feet cannot touch the ground, she needs to be baptized regularly, and does plenty of rituals. It's been five years and she's been going through this.
The scene when the F.B.I. bust into the house they were in minutes ago, reminds me of a similar scene in Hacker where the F.B.I. breaks in to arrest the hacker. The character from hacker reminds me of Alice/Eden because they both don't fit in because they both have something special that no one else has.
If I were Alice/Eden at this point I would've done anything I could to escape rather than sit there and let it just happen for no reason. I observed Alice/Eden accepted that she was being taken and decided to just see how things unfold. I'm not sure if she has any chance of escaping but the book IS called Water Walker.

Dont Tell Anyone- Text to Text
The story I have been reading is called Don't Tell Anyone by, Peg Kehret. This book is about a girl named Megan that loves animals and she is trying to save these feral cats in a open field by her house. Megan also witnesses a hit and run car accident were the driver, Lacey drives away in the accident so all that she has been working for is down the drain. Soon after, Megan finds out a company is building a apartment building where the cats live and stops the construction. This criminal named, Shane tries to make Megan trust him and ends up kidnapping her. What will happen to Megan and her cats?
The scene where Megan takes care of this ladies dog ( the one that got in the car accident) reminds me of the book called Escaping the Giant Wave by Peg Kehret because in that book they take this couples dog because they have to get higher up the mountain before the tsunami comes. The scene where Megan is upset about her cats almost dying reminds me of a book called Runaway Twin where she is sad about losing her sister named Starr. Another connection is where in Runaway Twin she found a stray dog and took him with her on her journey to find her sister and in Don't Tell Anyone she treats the feral cats like her own. Those are a few text to text connections i can make with this book.
I love the way this author loves animals and puts animals into her stories which I love. I hope you would want to read her books too.

In One for the Murphy's , Carley the main character, is an independent, curious, and spontaneous. All the characters in this book have many different treats and qualities that separate themselves from each other. One for the Murphy's is full of many different details that make the book very interesting and more appealing to the eye. The book cover is also very colorful and makes you wonder about the book. One for the Murphy's does very much, remind of the book Deep Dark and Dangerous.
This book reminds of Deep Dark and Dangerous because of the description and details used in both stories. One key detail that I noticed in both books was that the main characters lived temporarily with people that are not their biological parents. Ali the main character in Deep Dark and Dangerous, lived in the summer with her aunt and cousin. Carley the main character in One for the Murphy's lived with a foster family for a period of time. Another reason why these two books connect is because the are both very close in age, Ali was 13 and Carley was 12 making them have some of the same thoughts and feelings. The two books are similar because in the books both main characters got angry or upset with another character, Ali had a few problems with either her little cousin or the Sissy the spirit that comes to get revenge. Carley, got in the big argument with Daniel that caused her to run away and she had some problems with Mrs.Murphy because she wanted to call her mom.
One for the Murphy's and Deep Dark and Dangerous are two books that have absolutely nothing the same by just scamming through the pages, but once you take a long look at both of them you might find more in common than you think that you would. I bet that one book that you are reading right now has many details and key parts that are in a book that you have previously read (not books in a series). There are many other similarities between these two stories but there are also so many differences that make each story unique.
Deliruim- Text to Text
Have you ever thought what the world would be out without love, if your parents only took care of you as duty not as their love for you? Well in the book Delirium, by Lauren Oliver she does just that, she takes our world and strips love away from everyone at the age eighteen. After the procedure you are almost lifeless no love only duty towards your children, husband and other family members. This in my opinion is terrible but there are the people that don't one young girls name is Lena. She is an orphan that was taken in by her aunt. Her sister Rachael has already received the cure and Lena can not wait for her procedure. She and her friend Hana wait eagerly until the disease is gone from their veins. Then something happens. Lena meets a boy named Alex. She falls in love and that is a crime and a disease called delirium. Will she survive with her lover or be cured and never feel love again read the series to find out.
This book reminds me of the book the Hunger Games surprisingly. Katniss goes through the similar hardships with Peeta to keep her love and stay alive. This book also reminds me a bit of the Selection Series because America has to fight hard in different ways but still has to fight to keep her love and not taken away from him. Alex reminds me of Maxon from the Selection Series who tries his hardest to keep his love and make her happy even when she thinks it is impossible. Almost every love story ever written is about staying with who you love. This is bit older book but it does remind me of the Princess Bride because throughout it the whole book is about keeping together with who you love no matter the stakes.
In this book I love the way that everyone is scared of those who fall in love. I have to admit it make me laugh a little how terrified the people are of getting delirium. I wish that the book did not end on a cliff hanger but that is just what happens when it is a series. It amazes me how quickly the author can make the characters point of view change on the subject and it still makes so much sense. I like Lena because how determined she is to get what she wants and what is right. This book tells you to stand up for what you believe and don't sit to the side and let people live your life for you. If you do love a good romance and adventure story I highly recommend this book. Even if you don't like that sort of stuff read it anyways.

This book also reminds me a bit of the Selection Series because America has to fight hard in different ways but still has to fight to keep her love and not taken away from him. Alex reminds me of Maxon from the Selection Series who tries his hardest to keep his love and make her happy even when she thinks it is impossible. Almost every love story ever written is about staying with who you love. This is bit older book but it does remind me of the Princess Bride because throughout it the whole book is about keeping together with who you love no matter the stakes.
In this book I love the way that everyone is scared of those who fall in love. I have to admit it make me laugh a little how terrified the people are of getting delirium. I wish that the book did not end on a cliff hanger but that is just what happens when it is a series. It amazes me how quickly the author can make the characters point of view change on the subject and it still makes so much sense. I like Lena because how determined she is to get what she wants and what is right. This book tells you to stand up for what you believe and don't sit to the side and let people live your life for you. If you do love a good romance and adventure story I highly recommend this book. Even if you don't like that sort of stuff read it anyways.
Book Text to Text Report
For my text-to-text book comparison, I chose Eye Of Minds and Maze Runner. They are by the same author, James Dashner. They both take place in the future, and both books are of the Sci-Fi genre. Both books have a lot of action in them, and both have a deep plot line. In Eye Of Minds, the characters take a journey on 'The Path'. In Maze Runner, the characters take a journey in 'The Maze'. Both books have a creepy creature- Grievers and KillSims. Both books have three main characters. That is where the similarities end though- Despite being by the same authors, they are very different!

I'm reading the book Deep and Dark and Dangerous by Mary Downing Hahn. The part where i'm at is about how Sissy is trying to get on Ali's nerves and she is trying to trick Emma in to getting in the canoe. The doll that Sissy has is in the boat and she was teasing Emma about how she is a scaredy cat. She finally got Emma into the boat and Ali tried to stop her, but she couldn't.
The book Deep and Dark and Dangerous reminds me of a book called The Graveyard Book. Those books are alike because they are both suspenseful and a little creepy. Also, the character Ali reminds me of another character named Caroline from a different book/movie. They are both kind of the same because they are both very determined to find things out.
In conclusion, I love the way that characters and stories connect to each other. I also love the way that text is so much like other texts and the way that you can connect them.

Text to Text Insurgent, Veronica Roth
The book I am currently reading is Insurgent by Veronica Roth. This is the second book in the Divergent series. The book starts off where the last one ended. Tris, Four, Marcus, Peter, and Caleb are going to Amity headquarters for safety. They have a vote to see if they can stay. In order to stay they can't be violent and they have to work and basically do chores to stay. Dauntless traitor's come to do a search for them and they fight their way through the compound to escape. Tris meets Four's mom who was supposedly dead. She is the leader of the factionless. They leave one of the abandoned building's and make their way to Candor headquarters. Tris and Four have to answer questions while under truth serum in front of an entire room of people. Not long after they are there Dauntless traitor's come and shoot almost everyone with tiny disk like things. They inject a blue serum that completely takes over their brain. Two of three people under the simulation jump off the roof of the compound. Every two days that they don't hand over a Divergent the same thing will happen. Tris ends up handing herself in to Erudite so that the meaningless deaths will stop happening.
This reminds me of me because I would do the same thing. If I had to I would sacrifice myself to save people I love or anyone in the world. This act shows bravery and that person will always be remembered. In the book Tris is sacrificing herself so that Jeanine will stop killing innocent people. It is not the best thing for Tris because she will be executed after Jeanine is done experimenting and doing test's on her.
I can't believe that after Tris went in that Four followed her and ended up getting beat to a pulp just to have the same experiments to happen to him.

Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar's Storm-Text to Text Blog
The book that i'm reading is Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar's Storm. This book is about a cat named Bramblestar (Previously known as Brambleclaw). This book takes place after The Great War, which was The Dark Forest verses Starclan. After Firestar (previous leader) died Brambleclaw became Bramblestar. Now with the war over, floods from the Sun Drown place (Ocean) are threatening the clans. After the flood hits the clans are forced from their territories and face unknown dangers, such as, Badgers,foxes,and evil kittypets (house cats). Now a storm is coming, and no one knows when it will hit.
In the book their is a part where they try to help someone without asking, this reminds me of the book Seekers when the bears in the story help a entire group of bears without asking. A character named Leafpool reminds me of another character from Warriors Into the Wild their name was Spottedleaf. They were both caring cats, also they are both Medicine Cats.
Overall I think this is a great book, but you should NOT read it if you have not read any previous book leading up to this. I wish that a certain clan (I'm not gonna tell you) would just arrive already, beacause they are awesome. I felt sad when Seedpaw died, but it was very heroic she saved her sister Lilypaw from drowning in the flood. Ok, that's enough ranting, I think its a great book and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is a Warriors fan, or loves action packed books.

The 5th Wave Series- Text to Text
I am reading The 5th Wave and The Infinite Sea by Rick Yancey. Both of these books are in the same series. These books are about an alien invasion. A girl named Cassie, her brother Sam, and a group of new friends are all trying to stop the invasion, save humanity, and save Earth. This is a really good book because it makes you think about a lot.
I made a connection to a short story called "The Machine Stops". It is about people who live with technology doing everything for them. In the end, everything breaks down and the have to fight to survive from scratch. This story connects to the 5th Wave series because in both stories, they have to fight to survive without much to work off of. I also connected this book to "War of The Worlds" because in both books, they are trying to survive an alien invasion.
In conclusion, as I was reading this book, I made connections not only to books, but some movies to, I could make small little connections to things in our everyday lives, too. You can definitely relate to this book in many ways. When you make a connection, it makes you think about the similarities and differences to others things. I definitely recommend this book to teens who are looking for a good book.

The book I am reading is blizzards wake and was written by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor and it is about a girl named Kate Sterling and her mother was killed by a drunk driver which was Zeke Dexter. She refused to forgive him and wanted him dead.
This reminds me of a similar scene in a movie/season of the Grimm. The movie is about a police detective named Nick who can see people turn into monsters when they want but he cant tell anyone that he is a Grimm because then the consul will kill them. He struggles to do his job while keeping everyone safe because most of his scenes have to do with the monsters. Once he had a drunk that ran into a friend of his but turned out to be a monster, so i was reminded of Blizzards wake because Zeke was a drunk driver, they are different but it still reminds me of that book because of how intense it is.
I like the way the authors imagination works into play. She is so passionate about what she writes and puts so much detail into what she is saying or describing in her books.:)
