Text to self- The Truth Game

      The book I am reading The truth game by Anna Staniszewski and it is about how Rachel Lee starts ninth grade but gets obsessed with a game called the truth game. At first Rachel thinks the game is boring and has no meaning to it when her enemy, Briana installs it on her phone but that changes when the questions start relating to her. In the game, it asks questions and sends dares and if you answer them you get points. Rachel sees some of the dares and doesn't think she can do them but she does. Even though nobody knows who she is on the game, she is still cautious. In the end, the game has a glitch which causes it to show the identities of the players and what they answered and Rachel's friends find out the things that she said but they eventually forgive her.

     This book relates to me because sometimes I can get distracted from things that matter. In the book, the main character doesn't pay attention to her friends and other important things except for the truth game and baking. At times I can get distracted by my phone, TV, etc. The main character also hurts her friends feelings by saying things about them. I don't remember a time when I hurt my friends feelings really bad but sometimes I can hurt my siblings feelings. In the end everything is resolved which happens to me also.

     I like the character Rachel because in the way this book was written, it relates. Even though the character is in 9th grade and i'm 7th she goes through the same problems a lot of people do. I usually read books that have characters that relate so this book was one that I liked.

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...
