Lauren’s comments from the Comp 11 (Spring 2011) group.

I finished reading Firefly Lane and it was really good. I now started Heaven is For Real . It is really good so far and I can't wait to see what happens.

I teens are very influenced by advertising. I think I am influenced by it because if i see one of my friends with something I like I have to get it. I like the ads that has to do with something I'm interested in. The type of adds that get my attention are the ads with famous people in them.

Compassion Yoga: Mystical Cult Of Kuan Yin (Mandala Books)
I don't think I would read this book.

I am currently reading Firefly Lane. This book is really good so far, but my mom told me I'm not even to the really good part yet. The main characters are Kate and Tully. They are best friends, and they have totally different lives. Kate is a stay at home mom with three children while Tully is living her dream life. She has her own tv show which Kate's husband, Johnny, produces. Kate and Tully have been friends ever since they were young.

I choose "Between Here and Forever"

I think that having uniforms for our school is a bad idea. The way we dress allows us the express ourselves. If we would have uniform; we should started from the beginning. It would just give a reason to act up and violate it. Uniforms would change SRRHS for the worse. The students wouldn't follow the rules because we haven't grown up with them.

My favorite movie of all time is Miracle because it's about hockey. I have watched this movie about a million times and it never gets old. I like it because it is about the 1980 US olympic hockey team and them beating the Russian team. I would recommend it to anybody who enjoys sports and hockey.

I have changed my book to Firefly Lane. This book is really good and I haven't been able to put it down, but my mom told me that I haven't gotten to the good part yet. People who are interested in realistic fiction would really enjoy this book. I like it because it could happen in real life.

I added "Firefly Lane", "Heaven is for Real", "Blood Orange" and "If I Stay" to my list.

I am currently reading , but I'm going to switch because I can't get into the book. I have now startedFirefly Lane and I'm about half way through it. This book is really good, I haven't been able to put it down.

If I could have dinner with anyone from history, I would eat with my grandpa. We would talk a all the people he loved most in his life. I also would want to learn more about his past. We would eat one of my grandma's home cooked meals.

I don't really remember much about this book. I guessed on a lot.

I am currently reading Touching the Void by Joe Simpson. It is about two guys, Joe and Simon, climbing the Andes Mountains. Joe breaks his leg and Simon is forced to cut the rope in order for him to survive. Joe survives and has to crawl back to camp. This book is about the survive these two men had to face.

I really enjoy reading now, but i never liked it when I was younger. I think this changed when I was about 13 or 14. I liked it because it was a way to get away. It also kinda depends on what booking I'm reading and if I can get into it.

I have done all of the above. I think I added all the class, and I added "Touching the Void" to my bookself

I am currently readingTouching the Void: The True Story of One Man's Miraculous Survival by Joe Simpson and I'm on page 58. I really enjoy this book it is about adventure and survival. It is about Joe simpson and Simon Yates, who climb to the top of a peak in the Andes. Joe ends up breaking his leg and Simon is forced to cut the ropes in order for him to survive. Joe survived the fall and has to crawl back to base camp.

My favorite book of all time is "Before I Fall" by Lauren Oliver. This book is about a girl who dies in a car accident. She isn't very nice to all of people, so she relives the day she dies over and over again until she does the right thing. She realizes what's the most important in her life and what isn't. I really like this book because it makes you think about what's most important in your life.
