Fuse: a little bit further in

 So far I am on page 38 (I think) and I have found out that Pressia is helping people with medical disabilities. Like she had helped this little boy with making a fake arm. She is being very helpful in the community and tries the best she can to keep everyone safe and healthy, even with her disability. Then in a whole different setting, Partridge (Pressia's half-brother), is being kept safe by the Mothers. They are keeping him in a seller and he has been give a pencil, paper, and a piece of wood to make maps for the Mothers.
Partridge's, Mother's Vials

Then Partridge lifts up a jar from off of an old shelf and beetles scatter and he pulls out 4 vials from underneath the jar. His mother had said, before she died, they can be very dangerous but yet life saving. So Partridge takes one of the beetles that was found underneath the jar, and cups it in his hand. Partridge wants to experiment on the beetle to see what would happen to it.

So he tries to put the needle of the vial into the beetle and the beetle sticks him/ stabs him with the spikes on his legs. And Partridge then lets go of it but not before a tiny drop drops onto the beetle. And then after like 10 minutes Partridge sees the beetle trying to get away but it has a huge over grow leg. He sees it try to fly but it can't because of the legs weight, it digs a hole and buries itself.

New Book: Fuse

I just started this book and I am on page 12. I really don't know what is happening. I am reading this book that is the second book to the trilogy Pure. This book is called Fuse. So far, from what I have read, there is a 9 year old girl that wakes up and it in strange clothing. All white (I think) and she can hear strange people talking and are gathering around her and all they are to her is a blur. All she can make out is that she is attached to an iv. She also can hear the beaping of a machine. She had tried to talk to the white figures around her but all that came out was, "We want!"(pg. 10) Then two women known as picker come up to her and she can't tell them her name. She then takes a minute to regroup and thinks of her name: Wilda. The pickers hear a soundf in the distance and know that the sounds are for protection of Wilda. The Pickers call them Angels, or protector. They quickly back away from her bed side and Wilda grabs on no their arms, showing the whitest skin. Then before the picker can lunge herself away Wilda says,"We want our son returned, (pg. 12)" Thats allthat i have read so far. :)

Reflection


       The Character blog post is the best post that exemplifies my ability of analyze complex characters and analyze development of theme. This blog post ( and my entire blog), helps prove that I met the standards and expectations of a good character because  it describes them very well and it helps give a very descriptive description of what each character goes through throughout the book. It also helps describe the characters appearance and how they are feeling throughout the book. It also helps analyze the theme of the story, even in my blog post it says that “R has helped with the theme and the plot a lot. He has created the whole story. Without R there would be no story. The whole story wouldn't really make sense without R. (R is the main character)” It just helps by developing the story better. And making the story feel like it’s actually real.


       The goals that I have for myself for next trimester for reading is to try to read a lot higher level books. I want to start reading about 2 times a week and read books that are about 400-500 pages long. For writing my goals are to do one of those times writing essays and write within a minute or two and just write what my thoughts are for that day. Like a quick write. The areas of improvement for me are to read a lot more then I usually do, because I am a busy person and I am not always able to read as much as I would like to. Areas of improvement for writing is I would like to write at least once a week and to set a time limit for how much I have to write each week. I hope to read and write more in my spare time and I hope to increase my vocabulary to an a lot higher standard.

End

REALLY GOOD BOOK! I hope somebody else will read it. But I really have nothing else to say. But it was an amazing read. And I hope other people will enjoy the book as well as I did. It made me feel a lot of emotion. sometimes it made me want to cry but others times I felt so happy. So it really is a good book and it makes you feel like you are actually in the book.

Summary


After they fall into the Fountain.


Well this book is about a zombie who is called R and is living in an abandoned airport. He gets married to a lovely undead like himself and the adopt 2 children. He then goes on a hunting spree for flesh and he finds the girl of his dreams and forgets all about his wife and kids. But she finds somebody else also. Anyway, R takes the girl of his dreams back to his home at the airport. He later finds out her name is Julie, and he keeps her in the air plain for the longest of time. Julie then tells him she has to go back to where she lives, which is the stadium, and he doesn't want her to leave but he lets her use the car he has fixed up and the are on their way. On the way they, stop at an abandoned house to get some rest. In the morning Julie is gone and R has to go back home, but he finds M and some others and they want to help R get into the stadium to be with Julie. So they trick the guards by making R look human and his friends chase him into the stadium. once he is in the stadium, he follows Julies scent and finds her. He then is taken out by Julie and they soon figure out that R is a zombie and is not human. There is a fountain about 75 feet off the ground and her father fires a shot at him and hits him in the chest and they fall. You think R is going to die? Nope. He lives! Then something amazing happens and he then is transformed into a human being! and Julie is finally in love with R just like he wanted. And they lived happily ever after.




 
 

Almost done

Its pretty good so far. R has just tricked the guards of the stadium which holds his love, Julie. He follows her scent to were she was. He found her and she thought he was crazy but allowed him to come into the apartment and Julie's friend starts asking him all of these crazy questions. And that's as far as I am.

Analysis

One of the many book covers.
The movie cover (also of many)
I thought that this was a very nice book. This book is for anyone who loves romantic comedies. Its is so funny and yet its heart warming at the same time. It is a really good book and I would recommend it to anyone. It has very impressive vocabulary. It also has a movie you could watch. I would recommend that you read the book first so that you get a better understanding of the movie. But over all its a really good book.
