I  couldn't do anything except curl up like a ball on the floor of the barn and lie there,crying. The kind of tears that burn your eyes,and the sort of sobs that make your chest ache so that you're sure it's going to bust open.

Fudge glared at him, evidently, incensed. 

The author added this really calm and unexpected moment after a fight during Harry's trial.]]> 2019-11-26 19:20:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859353 https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859442 It was like my life was on repeat--playing over and over and over again.

It allows you to feel what he is feeling with the same things happening multiple times and unable to escape the circle of hard things happening to him ]]> 2019-11-26 19:20:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859442 seagolden https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859467 "What if the place caught on fire?

I like how the author interrupted the character thoughts with more powerful thoughts.]]> 2019-11-26 19:20:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859467 michorowitz https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859613 My blade hit the base of Luke's and I twisted, putting my whole weight into a downward thrust.
Clang.
Luke's sword rattled against the stones. The tip of my blade an inch from his undefended chest. 

Good imagery in this paragraph. ]]> 2019-11-26 19:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859613 andolsen https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416859784 Andrew Olsen

"He asked me to kill someone."
"So what?" 
"So what? How can you say that?" 
Tara turned around "They're just people!" 

I like this piece because although someone and them and people doesn't distinguish a person from being different by definition, the author uses these words to do exactly that. ]]> 2019-11-26 19:21:44 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416860116 https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416860343 "A panicked teen boy held the door to the kitchen open, his acne-riddled face resembling the genetic pizza pictures scattered through out the restaurant." I Admired how the author used the setting in his description of the boys face. I can visualize both, the boys face and the picture. ]]> 2019-11-26 19:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416860343 https://padlet.com/sgraybush/9ro825ynr83l/wish/416860515 Two minutes later we were crouched behind the trees of the Eagles back door. my heart thumped like a techno drumbeat.

An unexpected,
undesirable event;

As in: if JB hadn't been acting
so silly and
playing around,
he would have cut
