So far, Cristiano is in Lisbon as his progression to greatness continues on a positive path towards Madrid. In Lisbon, he finds he is missing his family and according to the author, he cries whenever he spoke to his parents on the phone but was dry-eyed when he returned to the player residence. Also, Cristiano has shown tons of character so far in this book which makes it even better than it would have been before.

I am really happy that I picked up this book because I am really enjoying this great, award winning book! I enjoy the way the story is narrated because it is shown from a first - person view. I really like the way Jonas showed how he felt about the world around him in many different ways. I also really enjoyed the way the author set the story up because it was very interesting and it was good to find something good.

So far in this book, it has been mostly about the troubles that Koreans have due to the Japanese colonisation of Korea. Sun-Hee (Keoko) and Tae-Yul (Nobuo) have to face the problems that the Japanese Imperial Army cause in Korea. For example, changing all Korean names to Japanese names, changing the language of the country and more terrible things. Also, the uncle hates being part of Japan due to his love for Korea.

I am currently on page 25 of, Pele: My Life And The Beautiful Game and I am getting more hooked and hooked in the book because at the moment there is a lot of action as Pele retells the story of his first world cup when he was 17 years old and I just love how the author tells the story from the very beginning of Pele's life including the troubles his father had while playing the beautiful game in the country, Brazil.

I am enjoying this book at the moment because it is showing how Pele grew up in Brazil and how he came to love football.

I am currently on page 11, and I have to say that I am very excited to read even more because I enjoy reading about biographies and this book has already made me want to read more!

I am also very surprised that both Billy and Jeremy's families were poor because now, they are both very wealthy and can support their families.

I was very surprised to find out that Billy was at Arsenal Academy because he is a Tottenham fan and the two clubs really really hate each other due to the history of Arsenal moving to North London from South London causing a lot of controversy in the situation.

I really enjoyed this book because it contained some two of my favourite youtubers and the love of my life, Football.

I am really enjoying this book because at the moment, all the garde have found each other and are together again. The only garde not there are 1,2,3,5,7 because 1,2,3 are dead, number 5 betrayed the garde and number 7 is a prisoner of Setrakus Ra. I also like the fact that the garde have teamed up with Adam(a ex-mogadorian) and are fighting for their lives. I also love the fact that Sam is still with John in the war.

I am reading this book because I wanted to see what happens in the future of the Loriens and this book has given me some key hints of what is to come in books after "The Rise of Nine".

I'm wondering whether the charm is broken or not because at the back of the book, it says "They know the charm is broken". That makes me predict that the charm is broken so now they could just kill everyone in one shot which makes me think that they are going to have to take massive risks to make sure they don't get slaughtered by the Mogadorians. I also think that John and the others will join up to face SertakusRa.

I really really like the way the author slows things down as he gets closer to one of the many many climaxes. The author also does well to keep me interested in this book because many many books I have read in the previous history, I have abandoned, because I am really really pick about what I read. I also am really happy that I found a book that I enjoy a lot. I also thought that the author is very smart.

I am really excited for the next book because I love this one! I like Nine a lot because he has a good sense of humour and has a good opinion on the battle vs the mogadorians.

I am really enjoying the book at the moment because I think the authors craft is really good and I am loving the book

This story just keeps getting better and better! The chapter that I have recently just finished is when John is having nightmares and bad dreams about the future. I think that some of the dreams John is having are foreshadowing about what could happen in future books. For example, Sertakus Ra was floating around demanding the Loriens to surrender. I also liked the mood that the author added to the dark atmposphere.

I am really surprised about what happened with number 8's cepan because he seems like such a fun, playful person yet he read the story with no emotion. I am really excited about this book because it was really really boring at first, but then, after the discovery of number 8, this book has really escalated in its excitement. I also like this book because I enjoy the concept of being on the run from aliens and humans.

I think that all the lorien will meet up now that they found Number 8.

I have a feeling that seven will get captured by the mogadorians.

I think John an Nine are up to something

I think John an Nine are up to something

I really like the book so far but, I think the book is getting a bit boring but I know it will have rising action soon!

I think that something will happen to Sarah because John seems very worried about her.

I am starting to learn about how Luma grew up in Jordan and how she got her passion for football. I am also starting to realise why Luma is volunteering to help young boys who have come from war-torn homes and letting them play a game of football.

I am noticing that Bod is becoming more "human" in the recent pages.
