Making Connections: When I started to read this book, I would not understand the connections it has made to my mind. But I can connect myself to Mitchell because both of us have a disorder which make us impulsive. A similar time was when he got revenge on his therapist because he dropped him as a patient so he peed all over his garden. I got revenge on someone by throwing a rock at them because they were annoying.

Topic Antagonist: The antagonists for this book is Luke and Jeager. The reason is because they are older and more wild then the other boys and is more dangerous.

This puts Even, Mitchell, C.J, Jason and Ricky in danger.

Mitchell, with OCD, has a chaotic voice; Jason, going through a divorce, is sad and emotional; C.J., abused, focuses on escape; and Evan, with high parents, acts tough and defensive. These limited perspectives immerse the reader in each character's mindset, strengthening the emotional connection to their individual struggles.

Archetype:Voyage, Overcoming Monsters, and Quest
I chose Voyage because the Thomas and the runners go on a dangerous journey through a maze with deadly creatures. Overcoming Monsters applies as they must fight for survival, defeating Grievers while going the maze’s challenges. Lastly, Quest fits because their goal is to escape the maze, solving its mysteries and overcoming obstacles along the way to find the exit.

The character sad because he keeps on getting expelled from his school. It is also because he burned down an awesome party killing many. then he got into a wizard school where he met a friend. Then he felt good that he had made a friend in his new wizard school. But he was called down into swim practice in the ocean and he almost froze to death. Then out of dire adversity, he heated up the pool which felt very good.

The sounds in the book were police sirens. What happened was that his friend gave him a backpack of stolen items, which is why the police sirens were there. The character was probably feeling nervous and confused at the same time as he tried to figure out what was going on. The picture showed the main character out in the open, surrounded by police vehicles outside the museum with onomatopoeia such as WOHN and WOOP.

text to self: It reminds me of a time where I have to present a presentation in front of the class. The character felt nervous which I felt the same way. He also stuttered and I understand how he feels. He also went to the top of the school's roof and dropped water balloons on his enemy. This connects with me by reminding me of a time where I threw a paper ball at someone that was being annoying.

Questions: The question is how could a kid get so obsessed with money? It doesn't really make sense that a 6 year old could get so obsessed with money. I think it is because a lot of people these days are materialistic so the author wants to emphasize criticizing people these days.
