I'm still reading the book The Cupids Chronicals by Coleen Murtugh Paratore im on page 117. The plot in this book is realistic because this could happen to any person.Willa the main character likes one of the boys and so does the popular girl Ruby Snivler and she also likes the same boy.I think the most important event would be when Willa goes to the town meeting to handle the problem that is going on with the library.I think this is the most important becasue it shows alot about will like she is sticking up for what she and some of the community wants.

The book I am currently reading is the magicians Nephew and I am on page 133. The book I am on was written by C.S. Lewis. This book easily takes the cake for the most unrealistic book I have ever read. It’s mostly only because a world was created out of nothing butt by a roar from a lion. But also because animals have the ability to talk. The Event that has been the most important is defantly when the world was created but only because the this world is the main setting for all of the other story’s in the series. This can also be important because an evil witch will try to take over the world even though sadly I have not figured out if she does.

Starting the story THE SINGING DIAMOND
BY ROBERT L. FORWARD
In the story THE STAR there is no plot that could really happen in our life time. The story is about an exploration team collecting information about a dead star by going there and collection stuff from it, this could never happen because when a star dies it is called a supernova that is when the star implodes and it collides into itself scientists believe that this creates a black hole. The team then wonders about God and how he destroys stars and their solar systems. They find a lifeless planet that contained a slightly primitive species that lived in the system of the destroyed star; this makes them wonder why god chose to destroy creatures these ways or if God is real at all. I guess if you think about it people have wondered if God is real, so in away them thinking about God is the most important event. This story was really short it contained only 3 ½ pages so there wasn’t a lot of events. h
Im reading On the Brightside im Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God. Page 160
Yea I think the plot of my book is pretty realistic. In the begging a teenage girl (Georgia) who thinks her life is now ruined because her parents are moving the family to New Zealand. Thats realistic because lots of parents are always moving there family around, and teenagers of course are going to make a huge deal out of it because theyre moving away from there friends and they think that there parents are ruining there life. Another way the plot is realistic is because Georgia and her group of friends go out to a club where this older guy that she likes is going. The whole time theyre at the club all Georgia tries to do is make Robbie(sex god) jealous of all the guys she is hanging around. That’s extremely realistic. Girls sometimes try to get a guy that’s older than them because they think it makes them cooler or something. Girls try to make guys jealous a lot if they really like them then they’ll use guys to try and get the attention from the guys they like.
I think the most important event in the story so far is that Robbie breaks up with Georgia. I think that’s the most important even because Georgia really likes him and she never stopped bragging about how they were going out and stuff and now Georgia is all like depressed but sometimes shes extremely angry because he broke up with her after he knew how much she liked him. The book is all about Georgia going out with Robbie and now hes dumped and she’s doing everything to try and get him back like trying to make him jealous, look more mature, etc.

Violet on the Runway by: Melissa Walker
I am in page 97
The plot in my book is very realistic. A model scout could be out there looking for an ordinary girl any day. This could really happen to anyone. Once the girl is scouted, then they would have to go through many auditions and they might or might not make the cut. In this book, luckily Violet did make the cut. But again anybody could get that lucky or have that natural talent. The girls at the fashion shows are known to be snotty and stuck up too because they think they are all that. And that’s what is happening in the book. I think the most important event in this book so far is when Angela, the model scout saw Violet working in the movie theater. If this didn’t happen then Violet wouldn’t be in New York City walking in New York’s Fashion Week. Working at the movie theater is what got Violet discovered and a model.

Violet on the Runway
By: Melissa Walker
I am on page 30
The plot in my book is very realistic. Any ordinary girl could be discovered to be a model any day. Model agents are every where and you never know…..you could be the one to get a “lucky break”. Violet is 6” 1 not your average senior high girl….and she is not very good at basketball so that puts Violet in the middle. Her height makes her feel uncomfortable and weird….but a model agent…Angela discovers the true beauty of Violet and her height. I think the most important event in the story so far is Violet being discovered by Angela Blythe an agent……with Tryst Models. I think this is important because it’s a change in Violets’ life. Her running into Angela didn’t really change her view of her “giant” self yet but I think it will in the future.

P.S I Loathe You
By Lisi Harrison
I have just finished the book P.S. I Loathe You, by Lisi Harrison. The plot of this book is realistic. The events are realistic and could happen. In the book Massie, the main character, wants to starts a cheerleading team to hang out with her crush. So, she and her best friends hold auditions to see who will be on the team. Massie, who declared herself captain with out discussing it with the team, starts controlling everything from uniforms to cheers/dances. She takes control and becomes very bossy. So, her best friends ditch her and exclude her in everything. Massie has to much pride to apologize to her friends and her team so she her and her ex-best friends are not friends at all. I think the most important event in the book is that her best friends, who have been her best friends since kindergarten, are broken up for good. They are now in 8th grade and have been friends for so long so this was a shock to me. This book is a part of a series by Lisi Harrison called The Clique. These books are very good, check them out!
The title of the book is Tuck Everlasting. I am on page 81. The plot of my book is not realistic because it is about how the Tucks live forever because they drunk out of the spring and that is not realistic because you can’t live forever from drinking from a spring. The most important event in this story so far is that Winnie got “kid napped”. This is the most important event because if no one kidnapped her this book wouldn’t be so interesting.

I finished the book Coraline, written by Neil Gaiman. The plot of this book is very unrealistic. First of all, there could never be a door that was right were a brick wall had been. Also, there is no “other world” or an “other” mother. When Coraline became bored after exploring her new home and talking to her neighbors, she found a door that led to another world, were everything always happened. Her neighbors were performers, the crazy man upstairs had singing rats, and her parents paid attention to her. But the only rule for living in that world was that you had to sew large black buttons over your eyes. When Coraline misbehaved, she was locked in a mirror with three ghost children, and her real parents were trapped inside a snow globe. And there are talking dogs, cats, rats, and mice. I think the most important event in the book was when Coraline initiated the game. The game was to find the souls of the children and her parents. If she lost, the other mother would sew buttons over her eyes. But Coraline tricked her into opening the passage to the world back up. But when they made their escape, the other mothers “good right hand” followed them. Another interesting event was the dream Coraline had, of the 3 ghost children. There were 2 girls and a small boy. But, one of the girls had wings, and ate flowers, and flew. All in all, its a very good book, but very unrealistic.
“Darkness Creeping; Twenty Twisted Tales”
By: Neil Shusterman
Finished
The plots in my book are very unrealistic. A lot of the plots involve fantasy or science fiction. For Example, in the story “Crystalliod” is about a boy who makes an enchanted glass figure. They sell it and the next day it comes back, bigger and more realistic than before. It changes its form and actually feeds off the humans they sell it to. It ends when the boy’s step mother comes to visit and the creature turns into a glass bath tub. I think the most important event was when the boy first discovers his creation is alive. He uses this to his advantage and keeps selling the figure for outrageous prices.

The plot in my book is realistic. There are two kids who play on a hockey team and they do charity. One is better than the other but the good hockey player riley is stuck up. The other hockey payer Tyler has to step in for riley and take his place. The most important event in the book so far is that Tyler only has a certain amount of time to do something good or he’s off the team. He has to take Riley’s place and has 1 month to show the coach what he’s got.

I am still reading “The Boy Who Dared” by Susan Campbell Bartoletti. I’m currently on page 132. The plot of this book is very realistic. It takes place during World War 2 and explains about what was going on in Germany during this time. It explains how not a lot of people were against Hitler, but the main character, Helmuth, was against Hitler. Unfortunately, it was very descriptive about the hardships the criminals faced in the prison cells. Helmuth is a “criminal” and is in one of the German prison camps. He describes the taste of the soup and the cleanliness of the cell.
I think the most important event in the book so far is when Gerhard comes home. He brings home an item from the Black Market. I can’t give it away. This will ruin the next few parts of the book. But he brought home an illegal object.
I am reading The Battle Of The Labyrinth by Rick Riordan, I am on page 283. The plot of the book is not realistic because it is about magic and the Olympian gods and a lot of other stuff that does not exist. The book is about a kid named Percy Jackson who finds out that the Olympian gods are real. In the first three books he goes on different quests and in all of them he saves the world. In this book he goes into the Labyrinth to try and find its creator so they can destroy it (the Labyrinth). The most important event so far is how they found out that they’re old counselor from camp is the creator of the Labyrinth, Daedalus. This is important because Daedalus is 2500 years old, he kept putting his soul into new bodies he made, this is also important because Daedalus is the only one who can destroy the Labyrinth and stop the Titan army from invading Camp Half-Blood (the camp that all half god half humans go to every summer). The subplot of this book is about a kid named Luke Castellan who is second in command of the titan army next to Kronos, he is plotting to invade Camp Half-Blood and Mt. Olympus via the Labyrinth, that is why Percy and his friends must destroy it.

I am reading the book Ark Angel. I am on page 235. The plot of this book is realistic in a way. where it takes place is realistic but what happens is not too realistic. For an example, part of this book took place in a hospital. That part is realistic. The part that is not is when Alex Rider fights force three and gets the guys captured and descovered. No teenage kid can do that alone. I think the most important event in this book is when Alex Rider escaped from froce three trying to kill him and gets the group descovered. Now that he figured out who they are and what they want, MI6 can do some research on them to figure out why they want to kill everyone who gets in there way.
I just finished reading the book Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Ally Carter. The plot in this book could be realistic if you think it is. Since I’m not a spy…… I don’t know if it is real or not. People scale buildings and try to rescue different things. These people are really smart and can do things that most people can’t do at all. The most important even in this book is when the girls from Gallagher Academy and the Blackthorn boys have to work together to save the list from getting out in the open. The entire book was getting them ready for the ending test at the end of the book.

He is on his way to Israel to work in flower fields and also to find out about his family history. Thomas Wanger the main character found old pictures and in the pictures he saw his grandfather in a Nazi uniform and now is trying to find out about his family history.

I'm reading the book Everlost, by Neal Shusterman. I'm on page 141 /chapter 13. The plot of my book is realistic for this book. The books plot is that the crisis is that these two kids died in a car accident, Nick nad Allie. Now nick and his freind lief are in pickle barrels and can't get out unless if Allie learns how to haunt the reaql world for 5 years. So if Allie dosen't then they won't release nick and lief. The most inportant part of the book so far was the beging b ecause it was slow and explained the situation that there in by thier freind lief. Also they amde apecial shoes because if they stand in on dspot to long then they will start to sink to the middel of the world and will never be a ble to come back.

Your book sounds like a very detailed and interesting read. Why cant you tell us what the item he brought home was, that detail made me really want to read the book.
To:Megan
From:Tori F.
Megan I think your book looks really interesting. I think it's cool how this actually happened in the past, and I think it will have useful information for this unit in Social Studies. I am eager to find out more on what he brought home from the Black Market, so I might check it out after you. It does seem very sad and depressing. It's obvious that he dies in the end but I think it's cruel how they kill him just for voicing his opinion on Hitler. But hopefully the book will give people some insight on WWII.

Megan,
Your book sounds really good. I think war books are good books and are very good. I want to read your book it sounds like a very interesting book. I think that book would be interesting to hear about the conditions of concentration camps aand how there were some people who resisted Hitler. In social studies it seems as though there was now risition from Hitler but I know there was and I can't wait to read that book!

From Rachel B
I think you really captured the plot of the book. I've read the magicians nephew and agree that it is definatly nearthe top of the list of "most fictional books ever". The creation of the world is for sur ehte main part of the book for without i t there would be no story. Overall i think you catured the plot very well. Teh only thing i think you should have mentiioned a little more about would be the witch. She is the resaon for all the chaos and trouble in the book. Other than that it was very good.
I’m still reading The Cupid Chronicles by Coleen Murtagh Paratore. I am on page 120. The book has many different things going on; the main purpose of this book is for Willa to save the library. In the past week Willa has really started to take action to avoid the closing. Willa has taken it very seriously so she decided to show up at the Town Hall. She got the council members to let them have until the end of the year to raise ten thousand dollars to help save the library. The most important event in the book is that Willa is community service president. That is most important because that is how her and Tina will raise money. After they held the Halloween dance they plan on holding more and charging more for a ticket. Having Willa being president helps her to try and save the library since see cares a lot for it, while others would probably try and save a football stadium or a mall.

Amanda,
The plot sounds very realistic. I know that a lot of people have that problem where two people like the same guys...if they know eachother then it may not end up well.
To me i think willa sounds very headstrong if she is willing to help other people and go to a town meeting to speak upon them. What was the problem with the library though?
I think your book sounds really interessting though, i may need to pick it up and see what happens.
Greatt jobb.
