Zya M is finished with The Fault in Our Stars
I have a few different reading habits that I like to use. I am not a huge fan of reading so I do do most of it at school when I have free time, or during reading. If I am feeling in the mood on a weekend after a long week, I might take out a book and sit with my cat on my back yard couch and relax. I mostly buy books on my iPad due to convenience, but I do like paper copy books just as much.

The words I chose were vetting, grueling, and jaunt. I chose vetting because it really set the tone and the mood in the moment for when he was investigating. The word i chose next, was grueling, I chose it because that word was really giving us great detail in describing his character and mood in that moment. And jaunt I chose because I thought it was a great creative word for his journey and made me more interested.

In this update, I'm making a prediction that he will survive and get off Mars, but he will have lots of obstacles and difficulties that he will have to face. For example, starving and running out of food, running out of oxygen, being caught in a big storm, or even never reaching earth again. It will defiantly be a challenge, but it seems like Mark, the character, can do it.

Like the atmosphere, and the Martian soil that is hard to grow food in, and even the length of the "sol" days.

I haven't read that much of the book yet, but so far I believe that the book has been setting driven. I think that it has been setting driven because without the setting of Mars, the events that have so far happend probably might not have accured. Because anyone of the team members could have been stranded out there, or the plot could have been different, but the events have to do with the setting of Mars,

The author of this book, John Green, is a very talented writer. Not just in my opinion but is talented to anyone who reads his books. He is currently living in Indiana with his wife Sarah, and his two kids Alice and Henry.

There aren't a lot of things I can relate to within this book, but one thing I can relate to would be the emotions of Hazel and Augustus' friends. A little while ago one of my old friends was diagnosed with cancer and I was really concerned and scared for her, and that is exactly how Augustus' and Hazel's friends and family feel. And believe me, it's not a pleasant feeling.

During this part in the story, it is set in Amsterdam, where Hazel And Augustus take a flight there to meet and talk with Hazel's favorite author of her favorite book to discuss questions she has about it. Part of the setting in this part of the story was on the flight to Amsterdam where Augustus takes his first flight, with Hazel.

I am at the part in my book where Hazel and Augustus are about to use his Genie wish to take Hazel to Amsterdam to meet her favorite author. I can relate to this part of the book because at my old school, we had a program where we granted underprivileged or sick kids wishes, where they could ask for anything and families of my school would make donations to the school to pay for the childrens wishes.

One if the interesting insites of this book were how the characters were explained in detail. As well as all the characters believe the killer was one of them but by the end no one was. The theme of the book was a mystery and you were always in suspense. But, it was very predictable in that the poem in the front of the book of how everyone dies gives away the whole book.

My favorite part about this book and seiries of books is that every student in Hogwarts has to have a pet. I love how the students get to have pets because I feel it would be important for them to have something to go to when you feel sad or need help and to just keep them company. Harry's pet is an owl, Hermione's is a cat, and Ron's is a rat in the first books but recently got a mini owl.

I think that it would be amazing if the world or Hogwarts were a real thing, as well as real magic with wands, broom sticks, and potions. I think that it would probably get a little bit hectic with everyone flying around and stuff, as well as multiple injuries but at least there would be more potions and medicine to cure everything.

my least favorite character in this book would be Draco Malfoy. He is my least favorite character because he always has a snobby attitude towards Harry, and everyone within the book. Plus, he also always interrogats any and every bad situation to try and make it worse for his won benefits.

In this book, Voldemort, or "he who should not be named" is the "bad guy." He is the bad guy in this book because he is the one who causes all the drama within the story, and is always the one contributing to everything that goes wrong. Plus, he is the one that killed Harry's parents which now causes him to live with his terrible aunt and uncle.

I think The Hunger Games is plot driven. I think this because without the time and place of the plot, none of the events would happen. Because the time of this book is set in the futue and there are what they call districts, which are like different neighborhoods I would say. This allows them to have the hunger games. And without the time and plot. It wouldnt be happening the same way it is in the book.

I think so far Katniss has changed and developed over time in this book. Before she was the one who fended for her family and yes she was very indepent. But now she is in a big arena fighting for her life. She must hunt for food as well as be prepared for other dangers like the wasps she almost died from.

My favorite character in my book is Katniss. I love her because she has many characteristics that I love and inspire to be like. She is very brave to volunteer to be in the hunger games because there is a massive chance that she won't survive. She also helped her district when it was being destroyed and is never afraid to stand up for people she loves.

A minor character in this book would be Doby. He was Harry's old house elf that always caused him mischief, and got him in trouble. Like when Doby used magic and dropped a cake on aunt Petunias head. Which she then thought it was Harry. Harry had kicked him out and now he works at Hogwarts, and makes the food with other house elfs.

I chose to read this book because I started reading the other books in the series and loved them. I loved the events and thrills that happen to the characters. And not just Harry Potter, but Hermione and Ron too!

The thing I love most about this book are events that happen. I love the events because almost everyone that happends keeps me on the edge of my seat wanting to read more. Like when Harry was locked in his house, and his fellow Hogwarts teachers come to rescue him. After he was attached by dementors, creatures that "suck out your soul."

I do think the time and setting both impact the events that happen in this book because the time of the book is set in the future. And the setting is in panem, which includes twelve districts. And because of these districs Katniss, the main character, is put into The Hunger Games.

One of the main characters in my book. She is super smart and knows lots of spells, her name is Hermione Granger, I guess you could call her a little bit of a nerd. But she is super sweet and owns a cat named Crookshanks who is super sweet. I also own a super sweet cat named Olive.

I think this book is mostly plot driven but is also sort of character driven because the character Harry, grows from from the beginning and most of the events happen because of Harry's relationship with voldamort the bad guy who killed his parents in attempt to try and kill Harry. But is mostly plot driven do to the events that happen that keep the story moving along.
