"Blizzard Bag"

What's Going On?

Over the weekend I finished Divergent. I loved this book, it was so full of action that there was something happening on almost every page, the ending was suspenseful with Veronica Roth ending the book with Tris, Tobias, Caleb, Peter, and Marcus on a train running from the Erudite. Insurgent starts off with them on the train but immediately drops them off at Amity but then the Erudite catch up and I am currently at the point where Tris, Tobias, Caleb, and Susan got on a train and went to the faction-less "city". I hope the rest of this book keeps up the action and I hope the third one is just as good.
 
Romeo and Juliet: What are you enjoying/ concerned about with Romeo and Juliet?
 
In Romeo and Juliet I like the dialogue, I like how the words have different meanings back then and it makes the words seem so much more dramatic and romantic. I also like how the characters use a lot of similes and metaphors. I don't like not understanding what the words mean and having to guess, that makes me frustrated and annoyed. I enjoy Romeo's different personalities, I think the different sides of him are amusing such as how he was so in love with Rosaline and just forgot about her the second he saw Juliet.

Predictions/ Why did I choose this book?



Divergent by Veronica Roth.
I started reading this book because I have heard how this book is full of action and details. I heard that the book is very good, I also was being pestered by my sister to read it. I hope the book is as amazing as it seems, and is full of non-stop action.

I am about a quarter of the way in the book now, and so far there hasn't been much action. It's only just starting, I predict that Tris will get stonger and end being one of the few who can advance into Dauntless. I also think that people will find out she's Divergent and she will get into trouble with the government for it. I predict that the book will get alot more action packed and interesting. I hope the book proceedes my expectations.





How does Tris's personality help prove she belongs in Dauntless?
