Another book Forged!

   The book Forge by Laurie Halse is special in many ways and is one of the better books I've read this year. It captures hold of human emotion in many different ways. In this book it takes place with Curzon from Chains joining the army and saving the life of another boy. The internal thinking is very advanced  and the description is to, an example of this is "the rebel boy dropped his musket, bent over with a mighty groan, and puked. My belly went sour too, but I choked back the bile." This is a very detailed description of what he saw and the way it was written made it sound as though he was really saying it to you. The character also changes from beginning to end but always stays a patriot.

   A way he changes is that he starts to understand what evil the world produces. In the past he looked up to his master and thought of him as one of his heroes, but it turns out  that his master is just like the Locktons to Isabel, vicious and unforgiving. He's shocked when this first happens because he has no idea Bellingham wants him back, proof of this is when he says "is there a maid to take my jacket?" and thus his former master gets him in court and gets him as a slave again. I would love to do more but  that would need me to refeal huge spoilers. I mean huge, so read me neext tie bye.

I'm just bound by chains

       In the book chains by Laurie Halse  a black girl named Isabel's master dies of old age and is sold to a family of loyalists. These loyalists named the Locktons treat her and her seven year old sister horribly , and this changes Isabel forever. Before Isabel was sold to the Locktons she was living the live any slave would dream of. She had work but was not over worked, she did not get brutal, unjust punishments, and was cared for. This shaped her to be smart and some what delicate. When she was with the Locktons  they treated her like a true slave, verbally abusing her and psychically. Then later on in the story they even take her sister away from her. This mentally, is very challenging and this causes her to partially lose it.

       She may have completely lost it if she had not met Curzon another salve who later becomes her best, only friend. Curzon is a patriot, he strongly believes that America should be free. In some of his dialogue  like this example  " Some day I will be a soldier, not just a slave, and help America." He also was always there for her, when her sister was sent away he helped her carry her water all the way back to the Locktons manor. He was a very large help to her mentally because se could relie on him
     
       She later was branded and because of this she saw the world in a different way. Her internal thinking states that she found bravery from her brand mark by saying "this brand stands for Isabel." You can also infer from this that she got brave enough to escape with him.

                                                                  

OH MY GONE!

    Hello everybody, It's Aidan here with an interesting discovery. I have recently finished the the 3rd installment of the Gone novels  by Michael Grant. The story begins with everyone over 14 vanishes from Perdido beach, California. Now with only children left they have to create a civilization from the ashes of what was left behind from the old city. Not to mention that the kids (not all of them) have super powers, yes that's right super powers.
          When this happens surfer dude Sam Temple and his friends Qinn, Astrich, and Edilio try to find a way out of Perdido beach only to find that they are trapped there. Also he has another problem, evil kids lead by Caine, Diana, and Drake from a private school near by try to take control of the area and succeed for awhile. Then as you would expect a huge rebellion breaks out and tghhe good guys win an average yet intriguing book.

    Now the second book gets a little more complex by bringing prejudice into play. In the second book Hunger an insane kid named Zil Sperry starts the human crew. A group of radicals bent on taking over Perdido beach or is what is now know as the F.A.Y.Z. I would explain what this means but this has no importance to my blog. Anyway as if this wasn't bad enough Caine is back and another battle starts up and in the end Caine and Sam team up to take down the real villan known as the Gigaphage.

    In the third book Lies An all out war starts, people come back from the dead, and a seven way battle begins as the Human crew  burn down Perdido beach as Caine is locked in combat against them and Sam, while Sam is fighting Caine, the Human crew, and zombie Drake. In this book every thing gets way to complicated but it's so much easier when you read it. Any way like the other books drug problems and alcohol problems were every were but in this, my goodness a girl named Mary jumps off a cliff with a bunch of little kids just to see her mother because some crazy woman named Nerezza tells her to and total chaos begins.

     If you can keep track of what I said in this blog I'm amazed beecause this is easily one of the most complicated, messed up, strange series I've ever read, and that's saying alot because I'm an active reader any way that's all for now, but wait actually read the books because i  actually liked them allot and I'm not even done with the series so stay tuned for more
