This past week I read the rest of this book. I learned how Chris formed a business for training snipers for the police or the military. He also would train disabled marines to help with their post traumatic stress disorder. The ending of this book really made me sad. I can't believe one of the people he was trying to help decided to shoot him. I overall really enjoyed this book and would give it a 9 out of 10.

I have chose to do my Goodreads on the perspective of my book. I the perspective in my book is first person. This really helps how the book feels and how you interpret the story. This also helps tell the story by telling us how the character feels. The point of view helps us learn more about Chris's personal life which is really important to the story.

In this past week that I have read I have learned that having a family while being at war is difficult for not only you but also for your family. There isn't much going on in the book right now except for Chris telling us about his problems with his wife and kids. One major thing he mentions was how one SEAL from his sister platoon had saved his squad mates from a grenade by jumping on top of it.

I am going to choose Chris Kyle for my character to identify. If I were to identify Chris it would be he is a hard working, selfless, patriotic, tall, American, and strong person. I can gather all of this information from the way he acts in his story. One of my biggest hints toward him being selfless is that instead of staying home with his family he wants to protect as many Marines as he can.

I think that Chris Kyle wants this book to be read by the younger generations. Probably around 13-25, and mostly boys. I think that he is trying to speak to this group because he is trying to show the younger generations what war is really like. I can really relate to this because I have played Call of Duty and watched movies where war is something that makes you look cool. Chris is saying that war is not cool.

If I could interview one character from this book it would be Chris Kyle. I would ask him what's it like knowing that if one single bullet hits you, your dead. I think if he was to reply he would say that it sits in the back of his mind every time he gets called for a mission. I think he would also say that since one bullet could kill you it's very important to always make sure you are making the right decisions.

In my book sice I last updated Michael, Bryson and Sarah found the Path. When they get to the first part of the Path they see an old lady sitting in a rocking chair. They begin to ask her questions and she tells them a riddle. They figure out the riddle and end up in the second part of the Path. This part tests their wits as they seem to go down the same hallway over and over and hearing sketchy noises.

I think that James Dashner wrote this book because he wanted to write a creative story about a virtual reality. I don't think that this book has a message I think it's just to enjoy reading a book. I think if I were to learn anything from this book is to probably take pride in all the small things in life. This is because when he notices that his maid goes missing, he finally realizes how much he actually needs her.

The reason I find this book interesting and what makes me keep coming back to read this book is probably how it shows what video games could be like in a few years. The idea of where you can hop into a video game lobby where it's just like real life just fascinates me. What also keeps me reading is how the problems the characters face are very interesting and the way they get out of them are even cooler.

I'm reading this on the Ipad. I personally connect with the main character in the fact that I enjoy playing video games. Also I can relate being the person who comes up with quick and smart decisions when needed. What keeps me reading this book is that the character development is really good and you feel like you are in the place of the character. Also the story is very interesting.

The other theme barriers, is shown by the deadly virus slowly creeping into Mark and the other characters minds, slowly making them go insane. This shows barriers because this kid Mark, has to make decisions that can cause life or death and it's hard for him to do this because he's slowly going insane. I have not seen any themes that are shown in a movie that I can remember.

Some of the themes in my book are barriers and family. I can see family because the main character Mark had his friends stolen from him after they decided to venture off to find whoever released the deadly virus. Since the characters have been living with each other and helping eachother survive they almost feel like family. More information on other update.

In my book since I last updated Mark and Alec found out that the girls had been taken back to the crazy people at the bonfire. Since Mark and Alec had been spying on the people that released the virus they eventually found them and chased them back to a giant airplane/ hovercraft called a berg. Mark ends up having to fight off the two berg pilots. After that incident Mark and Alec find weapons to save their friends.

The main conflict in this novel is that a group of government officials released a virus called the flare and now a group of people are trying to find out what happened and track down the scientists who created the virus and take them down. I would say this could be classified as a man vs man conflict because were dealing with physical fighting between the main characters and other violent and crazy groups.

I am reading this book on my Ipad. So far in this book the government called WICKED released a deadly virus that makes people go insane. This is called the Flare. The main character is a boy named Mark, his community was one of the fist hit with the Flare. He and his closest friends leave the village to find the people who did this and get revenge. I left off at the part where Alec and Mark jump into WICKED's base.

My book is written in the first person perspective. In my story I am only getting one perspective on events. Now that I am thinking about it, I would definitely like to hear from someone who works with WICKED. I know there is one battle going on in my characters mind because he could either stop WICKED and prevent them from experimenting and killing other immune people, or kill himself so people could find a cure.

I am reading this book on my ipad. If I were to insert myself into my books world I would probably be the one who looks on the dark side of things and the one who always thinks about what could go wrong in a plan. If I was a character in the book I would make the characters think more and would definitely make the book more complicated.

I can realate to the main character Thomas. I can relate to him because when I am in a stressful situation my mind goes a mile a minute and I try to figure out an idea that will help the situation. Another thing that I can relate to him about is how I cannot trust everything and everyone. He is put through situations where he can't tell if he can trust the people around him. I sometimes feel the same way with people.

At the begining of the book we are where we left off in the Mazerunner. The Gladers are in a dorm/ hotel where the rescuers put them. They then are told that they are in the second part of the trials. After that they go threw a dark and cold corridor and encounter the ball of death. The Gladers were then stuck in a deadly storm after getting out of the corridor. Now they are trying to make there way through the city

In the book so far Thomas has followed the instructions of the Rat Man which is to go North and find the building with the cure. If I could jump into one characters mind it would have to be Minhos. I would jump into his mind because he is the leader of the Gladers in this book and it would be interesting to come up with ideas to help the Gladers survive. I would be in the scene where Tom sees Tereasa.

I have chosen this book because I read Maze Runner and I really enjoyed that book so I am reading the next book and so far am really enjoying this one also. The setting on this book is in a desert, I am not sure of the time but I am assuming 30 years from today. I like this book a lot because just like the first book the story just keeps getting more complex and intriguing as you continue throughout the book.

This is my first status update.

I am very intrigued by this book because I have felt confused the whole time. Not confused like I don't know what's going on, I am confused about who the villain is because people were saying he was a gamer but now there saying that he is just a computer programed character.

I like this book because there is a good mystery at hand. Also it makes me have a good rush of fear. I am a little confused of the character change though.

I am reading this on my iPad. This book is very good, I am enjoying this book because there is a very good sense of characterization. I also like this book because I feel this game they play is something that could happen later in civilization.

I really like this book because I have been looking forward to this game for like four months and I feel like this is a good book to tie my hunger for this game until it comes out on April 8th!!!!

I am really enjoying this book because there are some really cool pictures and also it is very informational towards the game. It also is teaching me a little bit about the video game development jobs which I hope to have some day.

I am reading this book on my ipad. I am really liking this book so far because I like the cliff hangers the author adds at the end of the chapter. I also enjoy how he makes you feel a sense of care for each character.

I am reading this book on my IPad. I think this book is very sketchy because its an end of the world book so It's kind of creepy. The reason this book is creepy is because these sun flares hit and killed millions and then this secret government group wants to cut down on the population so they go and release a deadly virus that goes very wrong.

I really like this book and the ending was so cool. I really liked how the author put a lot of suspense.
