Text to Self Blackwatch

        I am reading Blackwatch by Jenna Burtenshaw and is a sequel to shadow cry.This book is  about a girl named Kate winters,who was born with a power she can't even control and for that people either lock her up or use her as a weapon.Kate so far was framed for murder and was locked up but soon then her friend named Edgar had helped her get away.Meanwhile a man named Silas Dane who's linked to Kate on good terms but,he is also known to be a murder and traitor was being hunted by the Blackwatch,but then get's caught.Then Silas get's information that Kate was being hunted by the blackwatch and now escapes to find his dear friend.

     How i had a strong connection to the book is,even through i may not have been born with powers,but i do like how the theme is because i would write stories even though they weren't good or any thing and the character Kate reminds me of similar stories i read and written before like the super powered people who have to keep their power a secret but then their secret gets out and the have to hide or either escape and it's interesting to see what happens.

     What i thought about the book was that it was pretty interesting and cool to see how the characters where and there choices affected how hings turned out kinda like the character Silas and it affected the whole story and even Kate,the main character.Also the similarities it has to different fantasy book and it has an interesting plot twist.

Text to Text- The Maze Runner

          I am reading  The Maze Runner by James Dashner.  This story is about a boy named Thomas who was brainwashed and taken to a place called the Glades. Thomas was very curious on running in the maze inside the Glades. When he had the chance, Thomas went into the maze and became a runner. Thomas is starting to put together clues and messages he has found to why he went to the glades in the first place. He is now trying to decode a message that has been created, so he can stop the danger. Thomas and the other runners need to defeat the grievers, and what is happening to their world.           The scene where the ferocious creatures (grievers) come and are trying to break their way into the map room, reminds me of the book The Hunger Games . That specific scene reminds me of  The Hunger Games  because when the other creatures (mutts) come out from the forest, the characters were prepared as well, but struggled to...

Text to Text- The Girl Who Drank the Moon

         If you recall, I was reading The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill. Much has happened in the story since I last posted. The witch (Xan) calls the baby Luna and over the years Luna grows very powerful, but she doesn't know what she's doing. At about the age of five Xan has to put a spell on Luna to capture her magic and when Luna turns 13 her magic will come out. Unfortunately that means Xan will die. When it's close to Luna's birthday Xan leaves because she has to get the baby from the circle to take to the free cities. Luna goes out to look for her grandmother and ends up having an interesting adventure.          This book reminds me of the book Sleeping Beauty because both main characters has a spell cast on them. Luna's spell causes her to loose her magic until she turns 13 and Sleeping Beauty's spell cause her to sleep for a long time. There are also many other connections, such as, both stories have evil witches ...

Text to Self- The Maze Runner

           I am reading The Maze Runner by James Dashner. This book's genre is post-apocalyptic. This book is about a teen named Thomas who came to this mysterious place called the Glades. He does not know where and why he is there. Thomas does not also know anything about his life anymore; he is completely clueless. Now that Thomas has been at the Glades for a while, he now knows there is a large maze with bad things inside. Thomas is not allowed to go inside the maze. However, Thomas said he wants to participate in being a runner.            The character Thomas reminds me of one of my friends because she is very outgoing. Therefore, Thomas is outgoing because he wants to be a runner in the maze.  Thomas also reminds me of myself because I am always very cautious of my actions in various situations. For example, when Thomas was very alert about some sort of "abyss", he did not take the risk of getting any closer. Inste...
