This book takes place in the future in which a lot of books seem to take place in the future. I think people like to use this common theme of futuristic stuff because it's interesting to think about. We don't have the technology, but just imagine what it would be like traveling space. This book isn't too futuristic it more of has just this one thing that basically puts people inside a virtual world. It's still cool.

I think this story is a romance. I thought it was going to be more like action because Daisy has died 5 times and brought back to life, but it ends up being she loves this boy who is also her best friend's brother, but then the story kind of gets into romance when her friend dies from cancer and Daisy and Audrey's brother Matt end up getting really close and dating and she even trusted him with the secret of Revive.

!SPOILER WARNING! The book took it to a different direction. They made me think that Audrey would survive by having Daisy take the revive drug and she kept begging Mason to let her try it so it made me think that Audrey would end up surviving, but then all of a sudden it just said, "It happened at midnight, that's when she died." I really thought that the way Matt and Daisy tried it would help.

This book really sets into place how unfair life can really be. Daisy has died about 5 times and Matt's sister Audrey is about to die to cancer, but the drug that brought Daisy back to life won't work on Audrey and Matt is mad at Daisy because he thinks that revive will work on Audrey even though it won't but he doesn't believe her. Then it goes into the fact that Matt could've been lying to Daisy. It's going bad.

This book has a very interesting story. They're calling this guy god who brings people who died back to life, but then Daisy has the burden of her best friend having cancer, but she can't be brought back to life because you have to be healthy when you die which makes the story get pretty sad. It would be terrible to know that there is something to bring someone back to life, but it won't work on who you want it to.

This book makes the government seem pretty bad. They have made this drug called revive and this girl has died a couple of times and I can't even begin to imagine what she feels when she keeps dying and coming back to life. At 4 years old she was Daisy McDaniel who died in a bus crash. Last name changed choked on a grape at 5 drowned at 10 and at 15 dies to an allergic reaction. I can't imagine the pain she has felt.

Captain Ahab and the crew are saying that the White Whale is the devil and they were thinking they would get drugged because someone brought ginger on board. They're also talking about books like the 3 Spaniards which remind me of the 3 musketeers. I wonder if some things in the book are true like how they catch whales. I wonder if they would actually go on boats after the whale. Maybe now there's a new way to catch.

There was rumors in the book that Scorpius was the son of Voldemort, but it's funny because it wasn't a son it was a daughter who had not been seen and now Albus and Scorpius are back in time trying to change time because Voldemort's daughter is trying to bring Voldemort back by killing Harry herself and that would mean that Voldemort would have taken over the world and everything would be gone.

I wonder why JK Rowling commonly uses Time Travel in the Harry Potter books. The first 7 books they went back in time to save Sirius, Buck Beak and Hermione kept going back in time to go back to all of the classes she's taking because she signed up for multiple at a time and used a Time Turner to get to all of her classes. Now Albus and Scorpius are going back in time to save Cedric from dieing by Voldemort.

I wonder why the author chose to have the characters change time. It makes the story go in a different direction because at first I thought that they would've made new adventures, but instead they went back and basically changed everything you thought happened with the beginning books and now everything is different. You get to meet the characters again, but now it's changed and that makes the story different.

I enjoy this book very much. So far everything I've known about the original 7 Harry Potter books is coming back to this book and I remember what happened in those. With the Time Turner and the characters. The main characters are learning about how important friendship is because of some of the things in the book. Now everything has changed because of the time turner which Harry, Ron and Hermione used in the books.

It was a little hard to read at first because it is written as a play. I was confused that now the kids are already in their 3rd year at Hogwarts which made no sense, but the book told us that the play would switch the year it would say that Albus is already in year 3. I thought that the story took a different approach because Sirius was a Gryffindor in a Slytherin family and Albus is just the opposite.

I think that it's weird. It's talking about the whale blubber and stuff like that and I thought it weird because it says that people eat whale tongues. I mean people do eat weird things in real life that I could never imagine actually eating. People do eat different things in the world so I guess it makes sense that people would eat things like that, but at the same time I think that it's gross.

I can't believe that Radney has died. If someone i knew had died while whale hunting I would be very sad. I realized in the book that the whale is actually much smarter than I thought he was going to be which is funny because recently I've been researching human intelligence and some people are saying that whales are actually smarter than humans which is kind of funny since I thought Moby Dick was actually very smart

Right now Ahab is really after the whale. They're being unsuccessful in doing. They missed the harpoon the first encounter and now Radney is dead and they could see the red of his sweater in the whale's mouth. They're being unsuccessful in catching this whale probably because Captain Ahab really wants revenge and they might not have the greatest plan in catching the white whale.

I was just introduced to the people who are called Radney and Don Pedro. The book relates to revenge because the captain, Captain Ahab had lost his leg to the white sperm whale and now he wants to kill him. I've also been introduced to the Dons like Don Sebastian and Don Pedro. The whale is a very smart whale and will toy with the crew and kill some of them. I don't know who will survive and who will die in the book.

I think that this book is about revenge because Ahab lost his leg to the white whale and now he wants revenge on him. Right now they haven't hurt him, but they chased him and missed him with a harpoon. I wonder when they're going to encounter him and who is going to die if they see him again.

The book is getting really close to the main story. Their adventure has really started because they finally found the white whale and tried to attack him. They threw the harpoon at him and it barely. I expect that someone will eventually die in the book since they were talking about how someone always dies becasue they're trying to catch a whale.

I keep on reading new words that can be confusing. I've been re-reading a couple of sentences just to try and figure out a meaning for a word. Like corroborated was a word I found. No clue what it means. I just figured out that Moby Dick the white whale is albino and right now it's talking about ship captains and how they throw a harpoon into a whale and then three years later they end up killing the whale for good.

They're getting ready to go off and attack the whale. It's talking about the white whale or Moby Dick. They're planning their way that they're going to go and find the whale. People are probably going to die while chasing the white whale. I have a feeling that the whale is going to be very hard to find and dangerous since people talk about him, he ate Captain Ahab's leg and because there is a whole book about him.

I've gotten to the part where Captain Ahab is talking about Moby Dick. One of the crew members asked about the whale that took his leg and he said it was Moby Dick. Now the crew is getting excited because they're getting ready to go out and find Moby Dick to kill him. The book is just about to get to the main part of the story now that they're about to hunt the whale. Food will run out and people will die.

Right now in the book the character is reading a book about whales. It's telling about the different experiences that the author of the book in the book has had. I'm still wondering why there are asterisks in the book. I see a bunch of * these in the book and I'm wondering why they're there. I have also met Starbuck which I'm pretty sure the name Starbucks came from. I wonder how they chose coffee for Starbucks.

The story is just about getting to the plot. I know this because right now Ishmael and Queequeg are on the Pequod right now in the book and they have met Captain Ahab the one who lost his leg. It's talking about how now they're whale hunters and how Captain Ahab got his leg chewed off by a whale. The book so far is good and I can't wait for it to start talking about the sperm whale and when they're hunting him down.

Now I can really understand the story better. I am understanding who the different characters are and now I know who the main character is. His name is Ishmael and it's telling me some more about Qeequag and about his Ramadan. I will continue to try and read this book I can use context clues to figure out some of the words I don't know.

The story hasn't really started. It has been talking about stuff in the bible like Jonah and the whale that ended up swallowing him then coughed him back up on the dry land as they say it in the book. They're talking about the bible and how god came down on them as a whale. I haven't heard much about the giant sperm whale yet, but I think that's coming soon since they're talking about some stuff about a whale.

This book has started out being hard to read. The word choice got a little weird, but I can understand the book now. At the beginning, I was a little lost. Now I'm understanding more of the book. There is a lot of words that I don't understand, but I try to use a lot of context clues and then I can figure it out.

The book has it as a journey of the hero. The 5 main characters can't defeat the leader of the Old Ones Chaos alone. The power of the 5 it's called. When 2 of the characters were together Matt the leader of the 5 was able to take apart a whole ice glacier. They were fighting on the ice and Matt made a huge chasm between the 2 sides that were fighting, and when all 5 of them are together their powers are unstoppable.

There are a bunch of people in the book. It relates to religion because the Old Ones were like a religion where witches and wizards believed it that religion. Quickly Matt realized something was wrong with the witch from the beginning. Terrible people were going to sacrifiece Matt to bring back the Old Ones. In the airplane Matt is controlling it with is telekineses so Lohan was mad. Flying to Antartica is a long way

The author finished the cycle with different points of view. I thought that it would start over, but then it went to the 4th point of view and that was unexpected. The author is using this technique because there are 5 main characters in each of the books. The first 1 was Matt. The second one was Pedro, the 3rd and 4th were twins Jamie and Scott, the 5th was Scarlett and all of their stories came together to fight.

I forgot to put the page number I was on. The last journal I was on page 225.
