1. Characterization - "He looked as if he could be one of her rich friends." (9)
The way that he acted and the way that he carried himself was how she judged him.

2. Structure - “The future, both Paelsia’s and Auranos’s, now depended completely on her survival.” (404)
Throughout the book there is a lot of death, if Cleo were to die, everything would end in flames basically.

3. Setting - "Aron slung his arm over Cleo's shoulders as the group of four walked along the dusty, rocky country path." (7)
This is showing kind of terrain around them as they begin their journey.

4. Figurative Language - "Cleo could barely function as she returned to the palace. Sounds were muted, and all she could hear was the rush of blood through her veins and the pounding of her heart." (309)
This was from the chapter Theon was killed, he was the love of her life. She felt as if the whole world stopped from his lack of presence.

5. Narration - “Then his heart, now broken into a thousand pieces, slowly began to turn to ice.” (308)
This showed how deeply the love Magnus felt for Lucia was, and for her to reject him, was heartbreaking and he turned into a very cold person.

6. Language - “I have stories. But stories are not facts. I like stories. Love them, actually. Most of the time they're better than facts.” (209)
It depicts that even though stories might not be facts, they are better than reality.]]> 2020-09-11 17:53:07 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/739829474 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/739849812
1. Characterization - ¨She pushed herself up, taking in her surroundings.¨ (47)
The way that the author worded this, meant to me, that she would not give up even if it means being in a place she is not familiar in.

2. Structure - "For three weeks now the Limeranian princess lay comatose after being injured in the explosion that tore open the entrance to the palace and allowed King Giaus and his army their violent victory." (24)
This is showing what she did, how they succeeded and side affects.

3. Setting - "To be viewed now as a fallen princess in a land that valued purity as a bride's most important virtue could be her ultimate downfall." (30)
The land that they live in is a place where when you get married, you must be pure and ready for your husband/wife, by pure, I mean keeping your chastity as a gift for your spouse.

4. Figurative Language - "The king's words wrapped around her throat like and icy glove, stopping her in her tracks as she moved through the halls." (396)
She felt as if she was frozen, her throat was closing up and she could nothing to stop it.

5. Narration - "No, he decided firmly. She was alive" (392)
Jonas is very passionate about the Rebels, so when his other "commander" went missing he was scared at first.

6. Language - "It was good to know that she could easily handle this fool when necessary." (79)
Cleo blatantly stated how much of a arrogant fool Aron was, he was the epitome of stupid.]]> 2020-09-11 17:57:05 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/739849812 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/829730472
1. Characterization - "An edge of desperation flitted across Lucia's eyes." (43)
It is very apparent that Lucia is scared and she needs help, she looks for reassurance from the people closest to her.

2. Structure - "The young man woke up surrounded by fire and chaos." (Prologue)
This part describes the utter chaos going around him and it is affecting his militia.   

3. Setting - "But in Limeros, one simply needed fire to keep from freezing to death." (367)
This line of the book represents the weather of the palace and it's location.

4. Figurative Language - "The king had released Cleo from the darkness himself and gathered her into his arms, promising her that she was safe, that no demons would ever harm her." (111)
This piece of figurative language is pertinent to the story, it is showing Cleo how her father never told her things that she knew she couldn't handle, it caused her to become vulnerable to the war because of her lack of knowledge.

5. Narration - "Magnus's expression grew dark, but he offered no rebuttal." (349)
This sentence showed how angry Magnus truly was.

6. Language - "Despite his horribly annoying tendency to hold back information he thought would upset her, she'd come to trust Alexius with all of her heart and soul." (286)
At first, the girls were very weary of Alexius. Through time and their journey of finding the crystals, they learned that he isn't dangerous and that he's just trying to help them.]]> 2020-10-14 18:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/829730472 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/979814918
1. Characterization - "Let me see," she said being imperious. (5)
It is stated in the book that she is very good at being imperious.
Imperious - assuming power or authority without justification; arrogant and domineering

2. Structure - "There was a murmur of interest, Herrani blacksmiths were rare." (11)
In the book, there was a war separating multiple different nationalities, Herrani are being sold as slaves or working as merchants.

3. Setting - "She quickly walked through the neighborhoods that separated this dingy part of town from the Garden district." (19)
In my opinion, this book reminds me of a mixture of the books; Hunger Games and Divergent. Everyone is being separated by class and skill.

4. Figurative Language - "Shame ate into his gut." (236)
The phrase itself is not true, shame cannot consume one's abdomen.

5. Narration - "The carriage jerked again as the horses shied, but Arin's hand held Kestrel steady." (209)
This is told in 3rd person Omniscient, the person telling the story hasn't been announced and it is focusing on just the two main characters.

6. Language - "Love was on the tip of Kestrel's tongue. But she couldn't say that." (323)
They fell in love, the owner fell in love with the slave everyone told her was worthless.]]> 2020-12-02 14:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/979814918 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1083641782 1. Characterization - "Kestrel no longer cared for dignity." (240)
She's honestly given up so much at this point, an example is dignity. In my opinion, she should just risk it all, there isn't much she would have to lose.

2. Structure - "I thought the barbarian days of the Valorian empire were over." (62)
The only thing they see each day, is a new problem in their country. It's being ruled by different powers. It eventually crashes though, and is just ruled by a singular empire.

3. Setting - "The wind had been high and fair and seaward."  (401)
This implies that they live near a sea, and they travel from island to island. The sea is one of the main settings, they do a lot of traveling by boat and that seems to be the most efficient way of travel.

4. Figurative Language - "It threw a scarf of dark cloud over the moon." (400)
The skies, along with the natural lighting of the moon, were enveloped in darkness.

5. Narration - "Kestrel stole a glance from behind her."  (384)
This is told in third person, talking about the main character's actions. In all of the books, it seems that nobody specific takes a certain perspective and it doesn't describe inner thoughts, it's very aggravating.

6. Language - "Kestrel would never have his happiness." (394)
Kestrel and Arin are going through quite the rough patch, and she's just trying to protect him. Arin should see what she's going through and take into consideration that not everything is what it seems.]]> 2021-01-13 16:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1083641782 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1107354076 1. Characterization - "When Arin spoke again, it wan't with his own words." (7)
The sentence after this one was, "His god told him what to say." Which means he's basically going with his gut.

2. Structure - "Her father had. And her world came apart at it's seams." (17)
She's been let down so many times in this trilogy, it's getting sad at this point.
 
3. Setting - "It wasn't long until she was surrounded by trees in full leaf." (161)
The islands are very heavily wooded and it doesn't get talked about very often, I guess it wasn't very relevant until now.
 
4. Figurative Language -"Sometimes a truth squeezes you so tightly you can't breath." (167)
Sometimes the truth can be overbearing to your mental and physical health.
 
5. Narration - "She pushed the gate open." (40)
This book is honestly all over the place, but it is all told in one point of view. It talks about the characters from an outer perspective.

6. Language -  "Arin added the captured Valorian vessels to his fleet." (44)
For this book to have kingdoms/empires, the way they speak isn't very lavish. This book isn't held in the future, but the author decided to use more modern language and it didn't really fit with the setting of the book.]]> 2021-01-20 19:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1107354076 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1182947557 1. Characterization - "We all begin with our past." (1)
Tegan Oglietti, the main character, is very philosophical.

2. Structure - "I woke up a hundred years later. And then things really went to hell." (12)
Tegan, has been shot by an  assassin assigned to someone else, she wakes up a hundred years into the future.

3. Setting - "We trekked up the beach to the highway and waited behind a pile of rocks." (285)
Somewhere in the story it states that there are multiple seas.

4. Figurative Language - "A few hundred dead zombies later, we were on our way." (147)
There weren't actually hundreds of zombie, they were actually cryogenically frozen.

5. Narration - "That was enough motivation to get up again." (174)
This book has had so many downfalls that she is used to failing and trying again, she is very ambitious and determined even since before she died and came back to life.

6. Language - "My parents tried that all the time when I was a ween, until Bethi showed me how to disable it." (147)
A ween, in this book, is considered an adolescent. They're the same thing, just known by different names.]]> 2021-02-09 16:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1182947557 miagoforth24 https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1269613141 1. Characterization - "I take out what I do have and place it into her rough palms." (15)
^{Jaewon is a very good person, he didn't have much but he gave it to the Ajumma. (Korean word for Middle Aged Woman.)}

2. Structure - Ch. 4-5, 7.

3. Setting - "To the left, Old Seoul." (12)
This book is set in two different places, one in Neo Seoul, and the other in Old Seoul.

4. Figurative Language - "Midnight shuts the old from the new." (8)
This is telling how the day ends after he is on his way home, he goes into Old Seoul, I think.

5. Narration - "With how much time we spend in simulation, the school puts us through a grueling physical-training regime to keep us in shape." (31)
This book puts everyone through a simulation to see whether they will survive or not? I'm not really sure, it's very confusing.

6. Language - ]]> 2021-03-04 15:38:35 UTC https://padlet.com/miagoforth24/miagoforthpadletbooklog/wish/1269613141
