Brisingr

This is the third book in the Inheritance series, the first two being Eragon and Eldest. I have loved all three of the books, and would highly recommend them to anyone in the class. They are about a person who finds a dragon egg and his adventures from there.

Behemoth

This week I read "Behemoth" by Scott Westerfeld. This is the second book in the Leviathan series. It is an awesome book about an alternate world war I in which they use fabricated beasts instead of normal weaponry. I would recommend this to everyone in the class. It is an awesome book.

Eldest

This week I read Eldest by Christopher Paolini. It was a good book. Given that I talked about it last week, I won't say much. However, it did have a kind of cool plot twist. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. (First read Eragon)

Eldest

This week I read about half of Eldest, by Christopher Paolini. It is the sequel to Eragon. Eldest tells of how Eragon goes to the forest in order to meet and train with the elves. In the mean time, Roran is attacked by the Razac and the Varden move to Surda. It is a pretty good book. I have been waking up early to read it because I think that it is such a good book. I would recommend it to all of you

The Boy Who Harnessed The Wind

This week I read The Boy Who Harnessed The Wind. It is about a boy in Malawi who drops out of school to help his father on a farm. He reads about a windmill in a book from the library, and decides to build one. He ends up as the first person with electricity in his village. It is the first non-fiction book that I have read in quite a long time. It was interesting, so I would reccomend it to the people in the class.

Ship Breaker

This week I read Ship Breaker by Paolo Bacigalupi. It is a book about a futuristic world in which oil is extremely scarce, along with copper and iron. The poor people work on breaking old oil tankers for the steel and the copper wiring, which gives the book its name, as the main characters job is  a ship breaker. He comes across a ship wreck from a hurricane a few days before, and begins to strip it of copper and silver immediately. Then he comes across a rich girl who he saves in hopes of a better life. it is a good book, and I would recommend this book to all who might be interested in a futuristic dystopian novel.

Slice

Slicing this month has been very beneficial to my writing skills. I have learned different ways to edit a paper, other than just reading over it and trying to fix mistakes. I have learned many more ways to have an intro and conclusion, even though I haven't used many of them in my time slicing. I have learned how to do the same assignment over and over and make it different every time. I have learned even better how to get teachers to tell you want you want to hear. This has been very helpful in my learning about how to write well.
