Text to Text Bruiser


 I am reading about Bruiser, by Neal Shusterman. Since my last post bruiser has gotten even more interesting, leaving you with wanting to know more about the next chapter. Brewster has been getting into trouble lately with his uncle. He has been sneaking out and playing basketball with Bronte and her dad, telling her uncle that he has been at the library. Cody has been taking the blame for his brother and getting him int more and more trouble. What will Cody and his brother do when his Uncle finds out that he hasn't been where he is supposed to be?

 This book reminds me of Wounder, this is because Aggie is having a hard time trying to make friends. In the book Wounder, nobody wants to  be his friend because he looks different. Except for a couple of people that kinda are the same in a way with Aggie. The same thing is happening to Brewster, because he can't make friends or he will hurt his friends. But Tennyson and Bronte, his girlfriend don't care, they are his friend anyway. That's how the book Wounder and Bruiser relate in a text to text connection.

  I think that the two books have a good connection, because they both end up happy in the end, not caring what others thought of them. But why was it so hard for them to make friends even though they were different? I was surprised that Aggie didn't care, he was his own person even though others were making fun of him for what he looked like. I also think that the author is trying to show that even if anybody gets in your way then don't listen to them because it's not worth your time. That is what I think the author is trying to show in both books in the connection they are making for a text to text book. In conclusion both books have a very good connection for having different authors, and the authors having different thoughts on the book that they created.

Text To World -- The Fault in Our Stars

    I am reading  The Fault in Our Stars  by John Green. This book is about two teenagers with cancer that happen to fall in love and go places together to live life to their fullest ability, while still accepting the fact that they are dying, in the end something is lost. What do you think this is? They meet at a support group in "the real heart of Jesus" Hazel and Augustus both read and they love this book called An Imperial Infliction.  They go to  Amsterdam together and meet the author of their book and he turns out to be very rude.  When they get back something is lost and is very sad. Hazel and Issac are looking for something left behind and go on a tiny adventure.       This book connects to the world in a lot of ways but the one that stood out the most to me, is that the world and the book share one very big problem, disease and cancer. Hazel Grace and Augustus Waters both have cancer and Issac and other people have illness and h...

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...

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...
