Current Reading Book




     The book that I am currently reading is Generation One by Pittacus Lore. It is the new book in the Lorien Legacies series and I m not very far into it yet. The last book ended with the Loriens beating the Mogadorians on the Earth. Towards the end of this war, many humans got legacies. legacies are the powers that the Loriens have. This book so far is describing how they react to/treat these new special humans. They are giving them special places to train and they will soon become soldiers by about the age of 15.


     This series has been one of my favorite of all time but so far this isn't my favorite. The book usually switches telling the story from the different characters points of view. Usually I like that but the characters in this book do not seem to be as related yet and they all seem irrelevant. I don't like the way that they have not shown much of the old characters from the war that I had gotten attached too. I'm not that far into they book yet so hopefully it gets better but as of now I am kind of disappointed.

    Your book seems very interesting and it makes me want to read it. I like how you explained why you don't like the book, but also tell us how the book is building on from the previous book in the series.

    This is a great analysis on how the author tells the story. I hope that you enjoy the book more as you keep reading, but great job on this post!

One of my favorite speakers during launch day was Erin. I thought the way that she presented was very engaging and interactive. It was a new twist that I found to be very cool and innovative. I liked the way that she did not try to force us to believe in her opinion but instead presented the facts and the arguments for both and left it up to us to form our own educated opinion. I thought the arguments sounded well made for both and I had already had my own opinion on the issue and the debate was still very entertaining. I also enjoyed Graham Frazier's presentation on the affect a powerful opinion can have on marketing and more specifically the Stockmarket. He explained what exactly the stock market was as it can be a point of confusion for many people. Then he gave us examples of how the stock market has changed based on the opinion of popular businessmen or other important people. I overall thought launch day was very interesting.

March Madness

March Madness is my favorite part of the basketball season and is probably my favorite way that any sports season is ended. March Madness is the NCAA tournament that has 64 teams and 6 different rounds. This tournament is always very fun to watch and it is fun to pick the brackets for who you think is going to win. This is something I have been doing every year for a while. I am usually pretty good at this but this has been my worst year in a while. This years tournament has had more upsets than I have ever seen. The most shocking of which made history when the 16 seeded UMBC beat Virginia the overall 1 seed.  This also happened to be who I had picked to win the tournament and my bracket was already done for before the second round. Then there is also Loyola Chicago who has made it into the final 4 tied for the highest seed to make it there. This was overall no ones year for picking a bracket.

Purple Hibiscus

Purple Hibiscus involves a Nigerian family that is very religious and very different from the rest of the Nigerian families we have been introduced to. They are very different because there is an abusive dad and husband. We have seen that the dad gets very angry when somebody does not agree with him. We do not really know why he is like this and we don't have many clues yet either. This is something that will cause the conflict as the book goes on. I believe the dad abuses his family like this because he feels it is his duty to make his family very Christian. We can see that a he is very scared of his family members being exposed to anything that doesn't involve Christianity.  When he feels they are not being good Christians he wants to take matters in to his own hands. He does not view him beating his family as negative because he feels as if he is truly helping them become better Christians. Papa in Purple Hibiscus wants his family to be good Christians so bad that he doesn...
