<Begin with a freewrite about your book. Write non-stop about your book. What have you been thinking about your book since you read last?>

I <am / am not> <verb ending with "-ing" that shows emotion> <Title>, by <Author's First and Last Name> because <Finish this sentence.> An example of what I mean is on page < ___ >.  "<Copy a couple of lines or a paragraph from the book.>" I think this is <adjective> because... <Add 1 or 2 sentences>

So far, the <plot / characters / themes> in <Title> reminds me of something of something I saw in Youth Voices. <Name of student who posted> posted <"Title of post." Make a link to the post.> <Add 3 or 4 sentences explaining the connections you see between this section of your book and something -- an image, video, VoiceThread, podcast, discussion post or bookmark -- on Youth Voices.>

I <am / am not> looking forward to reading the rest of this book because <Add 2 or 3 sentences explaining why you feel this way.> What's probably going to happen next is <Make predictions about what will happen next to one or more of the characters in your book>.

I've finally finished

I've finally finished reading The Hunger Games yesterday night. I was pretty unhappy that the first book ended, but excited at the same time because there is a sequel to it. Honestly, I've never really liked reading science fiction books before, until I stumbled upon the Hunger Games. I never knew how interesting science fiction could be.

While reading the Hunger Games, I had a questions in my head. Questions about why the author made the characters this way and what other alternate ending would there be. One thing I was curious about is waht made the author want to write the hunger games? what was it that inspired her to write the way she did?

Im definitely looking foward to reading the next book. I can't wait to find out what happens to Katniss and Gale. I predicted while reading the book that Gale wanted to confess to her. I wonder if katniss will choose Peeta over gale. Also, will they enter the next Hunger games?

Ugh I haven't read my book for a long time and all my freewrites are kind of the same thing just re worded. But I do enjoy the book BREAKING DAWN. It's just that I am too busy to read it. :] And yes I am looking forward to reading the rest of it when I have some time to.
