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.

  1. 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.

        Thanksgiving break can be so annoying. We have so much homework and it stresses me out the entire break. I wish we could have a whole break with no homework. But I guess that is just too much to ask for. I get that we need to keep our minds refreshed sometimes but we get so much homework it does so much more than that.        Thanksgiving is also just not my favorite holiday in general. We have to all just sit together and eat and it is so boring. Thursday was definitely my least favorite day of the break. It isn't my moms favorite holiday because eating food we don't especially like isnt our favorite pastime. So this holiday gets on my nerves.

Gun control

I am responding to a Newsday article written by Justin Haskins responding to the Las Vegas shooting and on the issue of gun control. Haskins makes the claim that strict gun laws will not work in this country as they already do not work. He also wants to explain why this will not work    " the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, a group that supports enhancing gun-control laws, gave in its recent gun-control report card “F” grades (for having lax gun laws) to five of the six states that have the lowest homicide rates"(Haskins). Haskins points out here that there is correlation between having gun laws that aren't strict and having low homicide rates. He also points out that the six states of Arkansas, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, Alaska, and West Virginia are the only states that have 50% of households that own firearms. He points out that  these states are among the top ranked for having the lowest homicide rates. He discusses how the statistics from cities that have very low

Dear 12 year old

     Don't quit something that you have started ever. It is something I have tried to make good on for my life and it is a value that is very important to me. It is something many of my coaches have preached and it is something I try to preach to the rest of my family. Quitting is something that seems so easy but it never pays off and is just the easy way out.      This is something that I recommend to a 12 year old because at that point in life everything starts to get harder. When everything gets harder, quitting seems so easy and like that is the best thing to do. The best thing to do I have found is almost never the easiest. If you sort something, you finish it no matter what it is. This is what I would consider to be the best advice that I can give at the time.
