The only thing I didn't like much was the fact that the main characters didn't decide to visit the Icewings, a tribe of dragons on Pyrrhia. However, the original plot was also very exciting and I would recommend this book to anyone who like fantasy and fiction or a good adventure!  -Heba Touijar]]> 2020-04-14 15:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/506599332 The Honest Truth https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/506861464 My reaction to this book was mixed. Some chapters were meant to make you sad, while others were there to make you laugh. I liked that about it. One thing I did not like was how on many of the chapters it left you on cliffhangers. I would recomend this book to anyone who likes sad books that have a happy ending. -Kira Casucci

Cook https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/507106745 I found this book to be very interesting because it is told by a child, Perry T. Cook. He is taken out of his home, Cell Block C, in a small Nebraska Prison. He didn't commit any crimes, but he was raised there. Moving from his home causes him to have to adjust to a new life, all while facing bullying, lies, and having to figure out the truth on his own. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes surprises and longer novels. I did not like how Halsey Barrows, a fatherly figure to Perry, had to leave in the midst of crisis, leaving Perry to be even more independent. Overall, this book was inspiring, and showed that no one can be taken away from their true home and family.  - Tanya Jabcuga]]> 2020-04-14 18:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/507106745 This side of home https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/507364701 I really enjoyed this book because its about a friend group who lived their whole lives together. It’s their senior year and they’ve always planned on going to the same school, college and do everything together. Essence, one of the people in the friend group, had to move away. In addition to that, it seems that the friend group is drifting apart from each other. -Kirsten]]> 2020-04-14 21:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/507364701 Magnus Chase ship of the dead https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/508398712 This is a book about a homeless kid who learns that he is the son of the Norse god Frey and when he dies ends up going to Vallhalla, where he learns that the Norse gods are real and ragnarock, or doomsday is destined to happen and when it does happen, everyone will fight only to lose.

This is what I like and dislike about it so far. I like it because it shows the story through many peoples eyes and what their thinking. I dislike it because it doesn't switch character's perspective fast enough. Too much story is taking place with one person before it switches back to another. I still enjoy reading it even with some of the challenges. - Ricky Long

There are many conflicts and tension which seems to add to the story. The only thing I don't like so far is how MANY cats support bad things. I don't agree with it, but it still adds well to the story. I haven't finished it yet but I hope to. It's really good so far!

No matter how many times I have read it even now as I read it  I want to jump out of my seat at the slightest sense of danger or turn in events. Whenever Percy Jackson gets into trouble it entregs me what is going to pop up next. My one complaint is that we only learn the story from Percey’s perspective. But overall I think this book is great.

The story is told by a highschool boy named Chase Ambrose who bullies other kids. Everything changes when he falls off his roof and loses his memory. He realised how bad of a person he used to be and tries to make it up to all of the people he hurt.

It's a place known as Cannery Row. It's one place before the whistles and another after. Before the cannery whistle blows, its "iron and rust and splintered wood, chipped pavement and weedy lots and junk heaps." After the cannery whistle blows, its men and women running down to the row to go to work. They go to clean, cut, pack, cook and can the fish. When the whistle blows at the end of the day, it goes back to what it was before. - Ricky Long]]> 2020-04-23 15:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/526087453 The Amulet of Samarkand https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/537290755 This story that takes place is unique to me. I’ve read a lot of books with magic and monsters or magic lamps, but this book is different. It shows that magicians don’t have to be people in cloaks and huge beards or live in a cave with a cauldron. They can live in the middle of a city and they can be in the government. It also shows how monsters/demons don’t have to crash into everything and eat people with their huge body's and gnashing teeth instead they can be cunning, good humored, rude, and are able to change form at will. That is why I really enjoyed this book and I don’t have any complaints. This on my top five most loved books I strongly suggest you read it.

Not having this will get you banished to The Powerless Colony and thus, being deemed "Freakling". Like the others in Deliverance, Taemon is born with Psi. He is also born with a special power called mind-wandering that he is told never to use. When given a horrific choice between sparing the life of his naive brother or giving up his psi, he chooses to lose his psi and gets transferred to The Powerless Colony. There he learns that psi isn't everything. I do not like how The Powerless Colony and Deliverance have to be separated. Overall this is an exciting novel that I would recommend to anyone who enjoys adventure.

Won thing it has grown by is the rules. The first rules of football was written at the Massasoit Convention in Massachusetts, led by Yale university player and coach Walter Camp. Camp is known as the father of American football. Scoring touchdown was made to four to five points. A field goal went from being five points to four points. in 1909 it was changed to three points . In 1906 the forward pass was mad legal but the passer had to be five yards behind the line of scrimmage in . in 1912 a touchdown score was made to 6 points. It became legal to make a forward pass from anywhere behind the line of scrimmage in 1933 . In 1935 the first official NFL book was published. In 1943 helmets became mandatory. in 1962 grabbing facemasks became illegal. In 1974 goal post was moved from the front of they end zone to the back. The NFL season was moved from 14 games to 16 games. Quarterbacks were allowed to were audio headsets in 1994 to hear plays from coaches. A coaches challenge system was added to instant replay rules. A penalty for excessive celebration was released. Horse collar tackles were deemed illegal. Overtime the rules were changed for the regular season. it was no longer sudden death unless the first team with the ball scored a touch. The controversial tuck in which a Quarterback was not charged with a fumble if he lost the ball while attempting to bring it back to there body. That rule was eliminated. Other things that have grown is the football, the shoulder pads, the helmets, the stadiums, and the salaries.]]> 2020-05-06 19:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/555725895 Holes https://padlet.com/kconn4/qa927shck6jl/wish/557464796 Find out you have to go to green lake camp because you we at the wrong place at the wrong time.

I've read the first four chapters and this is what is going on now. As I said in my first review, the chapters are written in a character's perspective. These chapters were all Hazel's perspective.

Hazel must now travel to find her friends Percy and Annabeth. She was given a choice of paths by the goddess of the mist and each path had different obstacles to pass.
