So the book ended with a huge cliffhanger! Mare and Cal were battling against 5 very powerful silver blooded people. Mare was not able to do any of the fighting because her powers were being held back. What I mean by this is that she was not able to use them because someone was controlling them. Mare had no way to protect herself from the 5 other people besides her own two hands. But Cal was doing all that he could to protect her. Then somehow the person holding back her powers stopped holding them back and she had full use of her powers. Cal and Mare were able to defeat the 5 people and then Maven calls hundreds and then thousands of people into the fighting zone to kill Mare and Cal. Everyone is getting ready to kill them both when a huge storm approaches. Mare is ready for death. She heard guns shooting but never felt anything. Then the first line of people fell down with bullet holes threw their chest. Mare did not know what was happening but before she could figure it out Cal pulled her into the whole in the ground that was created. Water then surrounded her and then the book ended. I really wanted to know what happened.

#1- The character that I am going to describe is Maven. Maven started off as really nice because he and Mare were going to try to make the most out of getting married. Maven protected her from getting killed and he always looked out for each other. They became very close and they both be trade the royal family. Then all of a sudden Maven turned on Mare and tried to get her killed and had joy in doing so. He turned evil and now lots of people are going against him. He was trusted and he lost the trust that he gained.
#4 - The part of the book that caught me by surprise was when the queen and Maven turned against Cal and the king. They killed the king and Mare. I was surprised by this because Mare and Maven had such a good relationship and I never thought that it was all a plan. Maven would protect Mare and then all of a sudden he wants to kill her which is crazy. Also nowhere in the book did they go into detail about the relationship between the king and queen so when the queen killed the king I was in awe.
#3 - the most emotional part of the book was probably when Maven turned against Mare. I pick this because I was filled with anger. Maven did so much for Mare, she trusted and really liked him and then he try's to kill her. I thought that this was plain evil and I was really mad when it happened. I am still really mad at Maven because of ho sneaky and sly it was. The plan was so wrong and it affected Mare a lot. Just think about how she felt. She just got lied to and her world was already a big mess. I just want to go up to Maven and defeat him so that the world is okay. I am outraged that Maven is in charge and now has all of the power.
#11- I would recommend this book to someone else in a heart beat because it is so interesting. I would do this because it always had me at the end of my seat and I never wanted to stop reading. All of the details and events make it that more interesting than other books. All of the plot twists and crazy events make the book so interesting. I think that a lot of my friends would love this book because of how interesting it is.
#15 - I can already predict what would happen in 5 - 10 years. I predict that Mare is not going to let them kill Cal and they are going to be successful in defeating Maven. Lots of people are going to die but it is going to work. I also believe that Mares powers are going to get stronger as she learns more about what she can do. Their is soon going to be a good and trustworthy group of people in charge.

Due BOP Thursday, 6/8. Look at the sample below for quality expectations.

Book Title: Red Queen
Author: Victoria Aveyard
Genre: Fiction
Date Started: 6/1/17
Total Pages: 388
Current Page #: 277
Main Character: A quick summary of Mare is that she is a young lady who has red blood. This means that she is looked down at and she hates the silver bloods who think that they are better than the red bloods. This was at least what she thought. But later after many events she "turned" into a silver blood. She was at the castle because a mystery person who turns out to be Cal got her a job their and then she figured out that she had a secret power. But how is this possible everyone thought. She bleed red so their was no way for her to have powers. The queen took her and made her stay in the castle and had to marry her son Maven. They get along and both have the same idea. They want to stop the silvers from taking over the reds and mistreating them. They set a shooting to hopefully have a chance of equal-ism but that is not what happens. Mare is very hard working and strong physically and mentally. She has been thru many tough situations having to run long distance and controlling her powers can't be easy. She is mentally strong because she deals with Cal's future wife. Nothing is getting to Mare and she is not going to let down now. Even though she wants to go home and forget about everything she is committed and is not going to break what she promised to. She is the person that gives a %110 and no less.
Secondary Character(s):
1. Maven is the person that is suppose to marry Mare. So fare in the novel he is being very nice and caring. He protected Mare when Cal's future wife was about to kill her and Maven sticks up for Mare when his mom was hurting her. Maven is also kind hearted because he does not agree with what his parents are doing and or want him to do.
2. Cal is the brother of Maven and he also plays a big part in the book. With Cal you can not really tell if he is good or bad. The reason I say this is because he is mean because he enjoys fighting and killing people which is never a good thing but then again he was very kind because he gave Mare the coins and taught her how to dance. Cal's goal is hard to predict at this moment of the book.
POV: 1st person
Setting: The setting is taking place in the palace /kingdom right now. This location used to be very bountiful with magical glass and huge bedrooms and the building could change with magic. Now it changed to destroyed and everyone is leaving. The rooms are being emptied and now boring. The palace is about 10 miles from where Mare used to live. They have regular weather, some days is rains and other days it is fine. I do not know when this took place because it is fake but if it really had taken place it would be happening now.
Interesting Noticing: Cal did not enjoy having to torture the people that were found for the shooting. I wonder who's side he is going to pick is he is put in that situation. If Mare and Maven the caught for joining the other side he might turn against his parents. Cal's future wife is not going to switch sides but I think that she is getting a little scared because of her brother almost dying.

Signpost: Aiko is giving advice to Scarlett right now tow in the game. "'Think of the instructions as a map. There's more than one way to get to almost every destination. Clues are hidden everywhere. The guidelines your received just make it easier to spot them. But keep in mind, clues are not the only thing you need to win. This game is like a person. If you truly want to play it right, you need to learn its history.'
'I know all about its history,' Scarlett said. 'My grandmother has been telling me tales since I was a little girl."

Signpost Question: Why might this memory be important?

Signpost Answer: This memory could be very important if she uses the information correct. This information could help her win the game and get her sister back. I say this because Aiko told Scarlett that she needs to know the history about the game. The head start is that Scarlett already knows about some because of her Grandmother. She remembered all of the story's her grandmother had told her and now it is going to help her. Her Grandmother had already experienced the Caraval and shared its history with Scarlett and Tella when they were young. By thinking back to the time she knows the games history. Because of this memory all of Scarlett's worries could go away if she is then success full in finding Tella. And then she would be able to get home to be married in time. This memory could help solve everything. Scarlett would always ask her Grandmother to tell stories so Scarlett probably knows so much more than everyone else does. Scarlett had been told that the Caraval had beautiful angels and actors, and romance which means she knows its history.

Title: Caraval

Author: Stephanie Garber

Current Page #: 192

Summary: Scarlett, her sister Tella, and a “friend” named Julain all went to the Caraval. The Caraval is a big game that is not real. If you win, the prize is a wish. The sister named Tella is part of the game and what I mean by this is that she is captured and nobody knows where she is or how she is being treated. Julian believes that Legend is treating her very nice and Scarlett has nothing to worry about. Scarlett is only focusing on finding Tella. Right now she is on the second night out of the 5 but she does not know if she can stay for all of them.

Reading Response: At first I thought that the game was going to be really fun, joyful and they said nothing is real but I am starting to believe that it is real and it is getting dangerous. At first how their Nana explained it I believed it was a happy magic. For example, “The only reason they had any success was because they were as beautiful as angels (Garber,40).” By explaining this way you think of beautiful, perfect, and a place where nothing could go wrong. But only part of that is correct. When the book started to mention about how someone died and that make sure you don’t go crazy I started to think differently. The book became dangerous and sad. If I was in Scarletts shoes I would be a mess. The reason I say this is because I wouldn’t know where the only person I truely loved was and I kept loosing Julian. I wouldn’t know where Tella was the whole time! They were planning on doing it together and now Scarlett does not know where she is. Also Julian and Scarlett keeps on getting separated and they can't find each other. Without a way in getting in contact it is hard to meet up. I am shocked at how this game is turning out.

Adventure Book Character Claim Post #2 due BOP 4/5

# data[].attributes.body
Current page #: 121 chapter 13
Character Name: Scarlett
Claim: Scarlett cares so much for her sister.
Evidence/Data:
1. "All this time she had been worried about Tella." (Page 111)
2. "Tella was the most important person in the world to Scarlett, but it always broke Scrlett to know her sister did not feel the same way" (Page 111)
3. "Sometimes it took her an entire day to track down Tella on her father's estate. How would she ever find Tella here." - what she thought (Page 91)
Warrant: Even though Tella does not love Scarlett as much as Scarlett loves her she still keeps on trying to find her and make her life the best that it can be. As stated in the text, "Tella was the most important person in the world to Scarlett, but it always broke Scarlett to know her sister did not feel the same way(Page 111)." Even though Scarlett knew that Tella does not love her the same she continues to look out and care for her sister which proves how much she loves her. If Scarlett was faking the love then she would not continue to care for her if she knew that the sister did not care for it. Also on page 111 Scarlett stated that she was worried about Tella all day even when she was experiencing really cool things at the Caraval. She still had Tella in her head while other people would only care about the once in a life time experience and the prize, which proves a lot. I really look up to her for being so loving while she knew that she would most likely never have this opportunity ever again and still rush around trying to find her sister instead of taking her time and looking at everything. Another point is that Scarlett does not only look out for Tella at the Caraval when she was lost. She also looked out for her at their home on the isle. The text explained, " Sometimes it took her an entire day to track down Tella on her father's estate. How would she ever find Tella here." Their is not much more Scarlett could do to prove that she really does love her sister. Scarlett uses up so much of her time making sure that Tella is safe and happy. Anyone would love to have someone in their life like that. Scarlett is a really good role model.

Book Title: Caraval
Author: Stephanie Garber
Date Started: March 20th, 2017
Reading Rate: 64 pages per week
Current Page #: 50
Main Character: Scarlett. Scarlette is Tella's sister. Since her mother left her and her father is very cruel and mean she acts like a protector. She has been trying to get tickets for the Caraval for years to make Tella happy. She in a way acts like the mom and always wants the best. She does what she can to make sure that Tella does not get in trouble or get hurt. Also she wanted to get married so that Tella would have a better life living with them. She said that Tella could stay with them so that she could be safe. All in all Scarlett is very kind and protective of the ones she loves.
Secondary Character(s):
1. Tella is a secondary character. As I said before she is Scarlett's younger sister. She is not a rule follower what so ever. She had a boy in her room when nobody else is allowed their without hr dad knowing. She just ignores the rule. Also another example is that she left the island even though it is a really big rule. She doesn't let anyone hold her back. She just wants to have her own life and do fun things.
2. Julain who is the person that Tella hung out with when she was not suppose to. He is kind. He tried to do his best of not getting his love (Tella) in trouble when the dad found him. He is also caring because he went back to get Scarlett to bring her to the Caraval even though it was dangerous. He also lived on the island with the 2 girls because his baot stopped there.
POV: 2nd person
Setting: The setting of this book is taking place in multiple places right now. Before it was taking place on the island that was very protective. For example you were not allowed to leave but how they explained it I imagine it with lots and lots of beautiful buildings. Right now in the book Scarlett and Julian are on a "boat". They explained the setting as really boring sea. When Scarlett woke up she said that the water was turquoise. Also the language is modern. There are not any words that were used a long time ago and not now. The setting continues to change.
Interesting Noticing: The girls father is very mean to the girls but still provides them with shelter and food. He gives them stuff but he won't let them have a freedom to do a lot of things and he punches and breaks their bones. I think that all of his actions are telling me that he is trying to scare them to stay because he does not want to lose them like the mom left. He wants to protect them but he is doing it in a mean way.

1.  Who is your main character? How would you describe him/her?
My book does not have 1 main character their are 4 main characters. The first main character is names Joana. I would describe her as nice and smart. I said that she is smart because she is a doctor. You have to be smart when you are a doctor. The reason why I say that she is nice is because she tries to help anyone that she sees is hurt. When she is on the boat she became a doctor and helps out all of the soldiers no matter how annoying they are. The second main character in the book is named Florian. Florian is very sneaky. The reason why I say that he is sneaky is because he old boss was stealing art work and then Florian stole it from his boss. He had it in his bag and nobody ever got it back. He also started off being really mean because he would not let Emilia walk with him but then he turned nicer and started to care for others more. Another character in the book was Emilia. She is the polish girl. I would describe her as confused and scared. She is confused because she speaks a different language than everyone else so nobody can easily explain what is happening to her. Also she is scared because when she was boarding the ship she started to freak out. The last main charcter that the book focused on was Alfred. Alfred was the captain of the ship. To describe him I would say he is full of himself and careless. He is full of himself because he never drove a boat before and he thought that he was going to be perfect at it. He is careless because in one part of the book 9,000 people died and all he thought of was if he was still going to get a medal.

2. Who are some secondary characters and why are they important to the story?
Some of the secondary characters in the book were Ingred. She was important to the book because she was the comforting person in the group. She was always the one who volunteered to put her life first. She was also blind and everyone cared for her a lot. Another secondary character in the book was the shoe maker. He always made sure that everyone in the group was awake on time and he made sure that everyones shoes were in good shape because he always said how a persons shoes ether made their journey really hard or easier. Also he cared for a boy that needed help. He was in a way his father or grandfather. Another secorndary character was Emilias baby. She did not play a big role at all but if the baby was not born then a whole lot of events would have changed. The last and final character of the book was made up. Emilia said that she had a husband and always talked about how good he was but he was not real. Sometimes she even believed her own lies.

3. What is the problem or conflict of the book?
The main problem /conflict in my book was getting to safety. The holocaust was going on and the group of people that my group was fallowing was trying to get to saftey. Their was a lot of danger for example, not enough food, no water, getting sick, dying from the cold, and getting killed by someone. They were all headed to the big ship to take them away. Once that problem was over another problem started again but it was not as long of a part of the book. This time the problem was not drowning when the ship was sinking.

4. How is the main character trying to resolve the problem?
The main characters were trying to solve this problem of getting to safety by travelling and doing whatever it takes because they had nothing to loose. They were always making sure that they made the right decisions and making sure that they worked together. They always tried their best to make sure that the all got onto the ship to "safety". When the next problem accord of the boat sinking they were really nice to each other of handing down their items into the boat and letting the other person on the boat first.

5. What do you like so far about the book? AND WHY.
I already finished the book but I thought that this was the favorite book that I have read. The reason why I say this is because I was always able to understand what was going on. Their was never a point in the book the I was just reading but did not understand what I was reading. It was always clear to me. I also really enjoyed how much description their was in the book so I was really able to picture what was happening. For example when they were first explaining what the boat looked like when they first boarded. It was like I was watching a movie. Another reason why I like this book is because for every chapter it is from a different persons point of view. It explains how that person is experiencing the situation. I really enjoyed the book.

6. What don’t you like so far about the book? AND WHY.
I didn't like it when they stopped point of views of people when they were trapped on the boat nowhere to go. For example Emilia was the only main character left on the boat with no place to go. I wanted to see and know more about how she died. I wanted to know more of the specifics and what she was thinking. The book was not as descriptive as I thought that it would be. That is the only part that I did not like about the book because it was really good.

# data[].attributes.body
A conclusion that I drew here was that Alfred (the ship driver) only cares about being a hero. All he wants is to be famous and everyone look up to him. I had a really big feeling of this in the beginning but now this makes it a fact. The reason why I say this is because after the whole ship just sunk and thousand of people died the text states, "Bodies were strewn like human confetti. 'Would I still get my medal?' (Page 345)" This makes me mad that all he cares about is the gold. I know that he is self centered so he cares for nobody but himself. He thought that he could do anything and controlling a huge ship was easy. If I was in his shoes and I was responsible for thousands of deaths and made it into a small boat I would pull someone out of the ocean and give my spot to them. It would not be far for them to suffer.

I felt sad at this part of the book because of what happens and on top of that the author did a really good job making it touch your heart. To quickly recap what happens the polish girl names Emilia is having a baby and she is imagining her mother dying while her mother was having a baby. As stated, "I didn't believe what was happening. I thought it was a dream. I closed my eyes and opened them. 'Wake up, Mama. Wake up. Please don't leave me!' I screamed. (page 232)" This part of the book got me sad because I could really imagine it and I love my mom as well and when I put myself in her shoes I understood how sad she was. Also something to add is, the text as I stated before the author did a really good job making sure that the reader felt some emotion. The girl Emilia thought that she was going to die to and she didn't think that she could do anything about it. She was so scared and sad at the same time it got me down too. If I had the same back story as she did I would react just how Emilia did too because it is scary if you mother died from having a baby and then you do.

I was very surprise during part of my book. I already read my book so I looked back and found a part that I was surprised at. I was very surprised at when Ingrid (the blind women) was able to trick the soldier into thinking that she couldn't see from the explosion that just happened. Her reasoning for not being able to see was, "Glace shards from the explosion." Usually their is top security so I didn't think that anyone would be able to lie and still get threw. Also something else that I was shocked at was when the soldier was nice to her. She commented on his scarf and then he gave it to her because he saw she was cold. I was surprised by this because all of the other soldiers were mean and this one was cold but still gave her his scarf. I was just a little confused at this part of the book at how she was able to tell the color of the scarf that the soldier was wearing if she as blind. Maybe Joana told her what he looked at while they were walking but the author did not state it in the book. If I was in Ingrid's shoes I would have been very nervous while doing this because if they catch you lying bad things could have happened,

I am confused about why Anna is acting so odd in the most resent chapters of the book. Just before Anna was crying and they never went back to the moment in the book to explain why it was happening. Then it stated, "Anna peered at me, her eyes reflecting the crimson of the bonfire, and for a moment I thought I saw a sliver of hatred before she ran after Grace (page 27)." I think that Anna might be mad at Kat because she might have seen Christian kiss Kat. She was at the same spot that they were at the same time they kissed. Anna might not want Kat to get married because of something in the past might have happened with the topic marry between Kat and Anna. Also another idea could be that Anna was mad/angry at Kat that she said no to the opportunity of getting married. Also something else could be that Anna wanted to marry Christian and she is mad at Kat that he asked her to marry him. Their are many different reasons why Anna could be mad at Kat. I wish that they would give the reader some information on why Anna is mad so they could have a little idea. It is confusing me and I have to keep rereading. If I was Kat I would pull Anna to the side and ask her if she was mad at me and if she was I would ask her why. I would do this so that if she is mad I could clear it up faster.

# data[].attributes.body
I have a prediction about why Anna was crying when Kat (the main character) saw her wearing the cloths Kat had been stitching for a week. For instance, "Then the figure turned, and I saw it was Anna, tears running down her cheeks (page 23)." I predict that Anna is crying because she got caught wearing one of the pieces of cloths that they are going to sell. The reason why I say this is because she is not suppose to know where the key is and she is not suppose to put it on and she just got caught. Anna is crying because she is going to be in trouble if Grace finds out. I also think that she is crying because it might have gotten ripped when she had it on. I say this because Anna, Kat and Grace are just barely able to pay for everything thing and if they can't sell the piece of cloth then they are not going to be able to pay for everything for that period of time. If I was Kat and it was not ripped then I would just put it back in the container without telling Grace and give Anna a talk. If it was ripped I would have to tell Grace.

I was really shocked about when the main character saw a wolf but did not warn her family. What I mean by this is that she saw a wolf and a wolf is bad luck because it means, "When a wolf appears at Black church Cottage, we must prepare the winding sheets, for death is near." If a wold means something so bad and I saw one in my backyard I would immediately go and tell my family. The reason why she did not tell anyone was because she did not want to hear her sister because then they would never hear the end of it. Even if my sister would talk about it too much and it might annoy me I would rather them be safe than get into a lot of danger. I do not think that she made the right decision, later in the book I predict that he sister Anna might be endanger because she was not told. For me family is very important and I do anything to make sure that they are safe and happy. Also her other sister that can't speak first saw it but also let the main character lie. She had no problem with it which in my opinion is bad. If you don't tell someone about a wolf and it is a good reason then okay but when it is something silly, I don't agree.

I think that if Florian told Joana about the art that he is stealing earlier in the book then she would easily forgive him and or understand. I say this because when they both finally get on the boat after a long and harsh trip he then told her. She had trusted him that he was just a German just wanting to get away from the war and out of danger but then when she finds out that he is a thief she gets angry. If I was in Florians shoes I would have told her that I was carrying a priceless piece of stolen art when they were still walking and said I would understand if she no longer wanted to go on the journey with me. I would make that sacrifice of loosing a friend so that if I get caught it wouldn't be my fault that my friend also gets in trouble. I think that Florian did the wrong thing of not telling her soon enough because it could hurt their relationship now.

I was shocked when the boat was leaving the dock to start its journey. The reason why I was shocked because the people that were not able to get their children on the boat were so desperate and determined to get them on were doing crazy things. For example, "Mothers tried hurling their infants to passengers up on deck...". This shows how much they wanted their child to be safe but when the mother were not able to throw high enough the baby would hit the side of the boat and fall into the cold sea water. If I was in one of these mothers shoes I would definitely not do what some of them had tried to do because it is very dangerous. I would rather have my child with me and have a small chance of being safe than them get killed because of me. I think that the mothers who did throw their kid probably thought that it was the only chance that they were going to get to get their child to safety. I was shocked because I didn't even think that it was a possibility and I had not seen it coming. I just thought that the people down below were going to be yelling to come back.

# data[].attributes.body
My latest thought about what is happening is concerned. Right now the ship is sinking and all of the people are trying to get to safety as fast as they can and they are doing whatever they can to save there selves. As said in the text, "The weaker ones fell backward and were sucked underfoot, unable to pull themselves up." The reason why I am concerned is because the people that fell are getting stepped on, stomped on and no one is trying to help them up or let them up. The people that got onto the ship went threw so much and to die from one fall is sad. But if I was in this situation and someone was on the ground not able to get up I don't know if I would stop to help them up for the reason of every second counts and I would have went threw so much to get on the ship. I don't think that the people that fell are going to beadle to get back up and get to safety in time. The reason why I say this is because their is way to many people in the ship and once they all finally pass it will probably be to late to get to safety or they will be dead. But I do hope that the ship does not sink because they will be many lost lives.

# data[].attributes.body
In my mind I can really picture what the setting looks like because of how well the author explained it. The author isn't just saying that it is a ship, she is being very specific about what it looks like. For example, "I ran my figures across the smooth wood of the grand piano in the music room. Then I marched down the long teak hallways of the promenade decks. They were enclosed by glass and wrapped around the ship (page 229)." This is the best book that explains the setting I ever read! Because of how well she explains the setting I am able to enjoy the book and it is like tv. If the author did not do this then I don't believe that the book would be as strong and enjoyable. Some authors will just say that their was a piano but the way that she did was awesome.

# data[].attributes.body
I bet that not all of the members of the group are going to beadle to get on one of the ships. I think this because the security is very organized and some members of the group are lying about information they claim is correct about them. To make the book even more interesting I think that the author could have made someone stay behind and not get accepted onto the ship so get out of danger. Also right now one of the characters is having to go into another inspection line so I think that he is going to get caught. If Florian ( one of the characters who has fake information ) gets caught I think that the Germans will ether kill him or hurt him for trying to sneak past them to show others not to try to lie. Another option that they might do is just leave him at the dock.

# data[].attributes.body
I really got into the story when the group of people got really close to the ship. I really got into this because then the trip got even more dangerous and I really wanted to see if they were going to survive. People were dying left and right and I don't know if some of them are going to be separated or even allowed on the ship. The reason why they are trying to get on the ship is because they want to leave the country, they want to leave because they are in great danger because the holocaust is going on. Their is a lot of bombing and shooting happening which makes it unsafe to live. Also it is dangerous because recently in the book their was a bombing and one of the members in the group sadly died.

One similarities is that in the USA it snows too. That is pretty much it because so many things have changed since then.

Some differences are today in the USA you never just see dead bodies on the ground. Also not as many people are dying from frost bite because their are shelters. Something to add is that Hitler has been defeated which in this time period he is still in power.

The setting is taking place outside right now. The group of people are traveling together so they never stay in one place for more than a day. The wilderness is very cold, people are getting frost bite, also people are freezing to dealth. It could be very quiet or you could hear gun shots outside. You always have to stay alert. it looks very snowy. There is snow everywhere. You would think that it then looks nice and peaceful but you also see lots of dead bodies which is sad.
