My story is not an allegory, but it does represent a problem that could happen in today's future. The story is closely related to hunger games, in which it's a battle for your life, but it is overall against "the others". People still fight each other for personal gain, but to save there life, they disobey all normal rules and government in place. Politics are very important here.

June is a strong military captin.But That wasn't always the case. Her brother died in a break in on the hospital floor,by falling several stories with a knife in his heart. The murderer is a Day, a young boy similler to June, and all he wanted was a bottle of plegue medicine for his sick family. June's first job is to catch this horrid criminal,but she soon realizes how he's not so bad. they are start to fall in love

After June's brother died, she explained "Metias should have taken [June] with [him](38).

During the book, "Ashfall" I, as the reader, feel very trilled and anxious. The book beings surprises every chapter, and I am always on my feet. The two main characters, Darla and Alex, must survive the volcanic eruption, but it is not always that easy. They must take on other people too, with the same main goals; find shelter, food, and water. It is always very stressful and anxious when they get into a pickle.

The inciting incedent of "Ashfall" is when Alex is in his room, and his house starts shaking. None of the other houses are, and Alex now knows something is not right. He runs away, but has no idea what's going on.

The setting of ash fall, is in America during a strong storm. The sky is filled with ash, and it is not livable in the open air. Alex is searching for his parents, and all he knows is what direction they are in. He has no plan for shelter, food or water, but he finds a farm with nice people who gave him everything he needs. He had tried many times to get water from other farm houses, but people are very conservative

Alex must survive the harsh weather and ash without definite shelter and wants to find his family very far away. He has I countered many people aloneg the way, some good and some back. He has yet to find people he wishes to work with. The moral of the story is to stick with your goals, and to never give up, for anything you set your mind to is possible.

The main character is Alex, and he is a very likable character. He had just been trough a strong earthquake, and he spent no hesitation to look at what just happened. He jumped up and started running to the fire department to let them know about the fire sense all the telephone lines were down.
One thing I don't like about him so much is how mean he is to his mom. She is in his best interest and only wants to help.

Tris and Tobias are still working together, and have gone back again to the base of the dauntless. They have a very good idea of who is divergent, but is is surtan now that the serum can affect them.

I chose tris to have a specific trait because she has a lot of emotions with Tobias. I chose moody for her, because she is always happy, then sad right away. Like on page 342 where Tris and Tobias argue a lot.

I think the least liked character in the book is Lynn because she is just annoying. She just met Tris and Tobias, and she seems to always get in the way. There is no reason why she should be in the book.

"I think we cry to release the animal part of us without loosing our humanity. Because inside me is a beast that snarls, and growls, and strains toward freedom, toward Tobias..." THis quote shows how there is tention

Tris and Tobias are still working together, and have gone back again to the base of the dauntless. They have a very good idea of who is divergent, but is is surtan now that the serum can affect them.

Their is some minor conflict with Tris and Tobias, because they are always arguing. Tris is trying to show him she is dauntless, and Tobias has lots of pressure with his parents and his dad.He's just trying to fit in

The factionless still have to recover, and they have started doing resurch about the stimulation serum, and how it affects the divergent. Tris and Tobias are worried, because the new one can hurt them too.

I think the title of the book is good, because it is the sequel to divergent, which is the main story line of the first one. We didn't find that out until the end, so insurgent will probably make sense soon.

After the ambush, she group have to recover to be able to fight again. The traitor dauntless injected all of them with a tracking needle, so they are already at risk.

I choose Tobias to follow the trait; stubborn. Tobias is very stubborn, and he will not follow Tris's word, even though he trusts her with his life. Once he is set to something, you will not be able to change his mindset, no madder how hard you try.

The Divergent have rounded up all the factionless into the place for further trail. They are planning to go to the etrude with a group of people when they get ambushed.

I would connect the most to Tris, because she is so strong and outgoing. I can connect with people and get the job done, if there is something that is needed to do. She can do the same. Even though she is so different, I can relate to her more.

I like how she writes about Tris, because her feeling are very strong, and we can feel and see them as she does. I like how we are in her head, and instead of only seeing out her eyes, we can feel her own emotions. When she is hurt, the author makes us feel her pain.

Tris and Tobias have moved away from the etrude, who have gone against the other factions. They move in with Tobias's mom, who runs the fractionless house.

I would be friends with Tobias, because he is nice and strong. He can help me stay alive in the crazy world they are in. HW would look after me, protect me, and save me many times.
