Assignment Week #13

what i am reading and my rating:
i have just got the book game of thrones but i have only read three pages but it has a good starting  i cant rate it yet cause i havent read alot so next weeks post will give full details on what ive read.

reading blog of the week:
bookblog.blogspot.com
it shows what books are out at the moment and what kind of books for certain people and it has a nice summary for each of them good for people that read alot.

other blog of the week:

we just got our new furniture in and we had to shove it through the window but it didnt break so now i am going to spend most of my time in the basment now cause its so cozy the only problem is, is that it is -2 all the time so it will be great for the summer!.

the book I have chosen for my challenge is zombie war

with my book in manga form it would have no army because in manga there is one hero and one villian so the zombie war would instead be just one main zombie and a super hero like superman it would start off with the zombie leader destroying something in the city than that would bring the hero in to the town witch would make the whole warn start instead of the zombies biting someone and it travels through the world it would be like 1 verses 1 than the hero would win and everyone would be safe the end.

Assignment Week #11

What I am reading and my rating:

I am reading the zombie survival guide and its a great book because the parts are so exiting they are very scary too like you imagine what if you were in there scenario and you didn't know any survival skills the only reason I would of found this book is because my moms friends thought it would be a great book for me too read.

My rating:
I rate it a 4 because I think its getting boring again right now  in my head is like when are they going to get to some action and not just interviewing and are they like survivors or something is the zombie survival guide book based on what someone knows after the zombie war or is this during the zombie war.

What I am waiting for:

I am waiting for a book that I could read after finishing zombie war I keep on hearing friends bragging about there awesome books but that makes me think my book is horrible because I don't brag about it at all so there is a lot of other books that i would like. Its so hard trying to decide on what books I want to read. Mrs. Craske is the only one that has ever decided a book for me that I read through the whole series.

Reading blogs of the week:
I have found this reading blog that describes books from the past such as historical fiction genres or historical novels she is all about the past and tells you interesting books that can show what books to read if you like these kind of books.

Other blogs of the week:
 I have found a cooking blog that is amazing it has a cinnamon donut muffin recipe and it looks amazing it makes me so hungry the reason I like cooking blogs is that well I bake a lot and help make dinner with my dad and I started when I was around 7 years old I could never stop making my own inventions.

My challenge: I have found a story with a number in its name!
Two Frogs
author: unknown, website:http://www.indianchild.com/two_frogs.htm

The summary: its about two frogs that fall into a pit and the other frogs saw them but it was two deep to save them so they told the two frogs “your as good as dead” one of the frogs listened and gave up and died but the other frog didn't listen so he tried his hardest and made it out then the frogs said to him “did you not hear us” then the last frog was explaining to them how he was deaf and thought they were just encouraging him to get out The End.

Assignment Week #9

What I am reading and my rating:
I am reading The zombie war and I can’t get hooked into it. I would recommend it to people that like scary stories but I would not recommend it to people that like the adventure through. the whole book is about random stories that confuse you and it ruins that genre.

My rating: I rate is a 2 because this book has gotten very boring. I just can’t even read a page it’s so bad I liked it till they started doing 70% talking and less action.

What am I waiting for :
I am waiting for my basement to be finished. We started finishing the basement in December and the walls and everything is finished. But we have no furniture and hardly any decorations we get everything in march. I can’t wait because then this is where I will be all summer because it’s nice and cold when I will be playing movies and going on the computer.

Blog of the week: I was looking up blogs about this book series or genre I guess called manga. So many people are reading it in our class but there not even books there like comics and you read it so weird. In a normal book you would read it from right to left, but in these series you read them left to right and start at the bottom of the page to the top it’s amazing how some other countries read books…

Blog challenge

My challenge that I will give to another class mate is:  Picture yourself as your main character in your book and what would you change to make the book better. explain how you changed the book is there any main parts you changed and what did you do to make it better.

Assignment Week #7

What I am reading and my rating:
I am reading The Zombie War and it has got a lot more action in it now there is a survival part in every 3 pages and it is improving on a lot of suspense before it was getting you scared then they would say something stupid and ruin it for you. But so far the book is really good I would definitely not recommend it for girls though.
My rating:
I would rate this book a 5 out of 5 because the book has a great story to it and is very genre packed because they don’t follow one story line they take different peoples story of survival and make there little own story out of it.
What am I waiting for:
I have started a little new blog called Littlesuechef.blogspot.com and I said I would start this weekend but I forgot to take pictures of my desert it was espresso crème brulee so next weekend I will post pictures and my goal is to get at least 200 views from around the world.
Fantastic thing of the week:
 I have just came back from my dad’s friends cottage and I had a blast I went on multiple vehicles like the atv , skidoo and the razor which is a miniature car basically but can handle about 2000 pounds on it. That was the best weekend I have ever had since September when I went to Maine.
Challenge of the week:
My book I chose for this challenge is The Hunger Games because there is a specific part that will be good for this challenge:
When Katniss chooses to let her sister Prim go in the hunger games or substitute for her and possibly die.
My new ending:
So Prim gets to go in the games and she fought till the death and was one of the one out of three people left and she was in the middle of them fighting. Prims specialty is to use a fishing rod she made one out of sticks and swords. When she was in the middle of the battle she used her fishing rod to hook Cato in the face and it was only Peeta and Prim left. The big difference is Prim is 12 and Peeta is like 17 so Prim doesn’t care if he’s dead. So Prim attacks and ends up winning but the games weren’t over.

Assignment Week #6

What am I reading and my rating?
I am currently reading The Zombie War and it is such a suspenseful book. It’s jammed packed with action and horror you will never put it down. It will suck you into a black hole of reading nonstop.

My rating: I rate it a 5 because it definitely is an awesome book if you heard from my presentation it actually scared some people. Because of the scary music and I would recommend this book to boys because it’s an action, adventure and horror book.
What I am waiting for: I am waiting for the summer because I just found out our family is going to India and I get to see my grandma for the first time. I am very sad because my grandpa passed away when I was just born: ( .
Blogs of the week: I am not a big reading fan so I have picked an amazing website from the cordon bleu and that is where my mom and my dad want me to for fill my dream of being a pastry chef slash cooking chef.  I am getting very good at baking now this weekend I made a dessert pizza and every loves it, with a layer of nutella, cherry’s and peanuts nothing could go wrong.
Challenge:  Sorry I could not get 10 books we were at busy this weekend I am wrighting this at about 10: 20
I really dislike a lot of books they have to be books that have made something in my mind like the hunger games made me think I was inside it and zombie war did too. But 10 books is hard for me to choose, so I am going to look in my forbidden bookshelf OOOoooo.
1: Dead AND Gone
I have picked this book because it sounds scary and I love when a book gets you scared it’s the last thing you would get scared by.
2: The Burning Crown
I picked this book because my brother has read it and said it was an awesome book so I hope he’s right.
3: The Sea Of Monsters
I would bring this book because it brings mystery to your mind like what’s the sea of monsters.
4: The BUTT series
I would bring this book because even the title makes you laugh like what does it mean by buts going physco?
5: The Fire Within
I picked this book because I am obsessed with dragons they are all over my room I thought this book would give me memories of my room.
6: The Dragon Rider
When I was a kid I had a dream of riding mystical creatures and of course dragons were my favourite and the thought of riding one would be amazing.
7:The Serpents Egg
I would bring this book because it brings mystery to my mind like: Do they steal the egg, cook it, make babies and train them, Who knows.

Assignment Week #5

What I am reading and my rating:
I am reading The Zombie war and it seems like a very scary book considering a lot of people die and the constant worry of zombies coming after you. The saddest parts are when someone from their family dies trying to survive the zombies. One of the mothers got bitten and she didn’t want to turn into one and accidentally kill her family.
My rating:
I rate this book a 4 because it definitely is an awesome book. It has gotten awards and is almost as popular as the hunger games, but I still think it would have movie potential considering there is a moving coming out on it.
What I am waiting for:
I am waiting for something our family is going to make a tradition on. My dad said we would go salmon fishing every year because we don’t get to do a lot during the school year all we do is eat and sleep. So my dad would like to start this tradition so we can get more active I think it will be very fun to do fishing is my favourite think to do.
My blog of the week:
I was so confused about the whole news story about the girls getting kidnapped that is amazing how they put every person in Barrhaven in a worry mode. It made every girl worried about going outside and I bet the school board wasted a lot of paper sending out those notices about the kidnapper that never really existed.
My challenge:
Since I just started reading books a lot this year I have only read 5 books but the others I will base on genre and style
1: hunger game awesome book could read that so many times and it would never get old.
2: catching fir I love this book because the ending is amazing and if I have this book the you know what other book I need.
3: mocking jay even know I did not like this book that much I still would bring it because the ending when she kills president snow and avenges her sister.
4: Zombie war: I think this would be an awesome book to bring on the dessert because it boosts you body and makes you very energetic.
5: Nose from Jupiter this book was boring but I haven’t read a lot of books so I would have to bring it on the trip.
6: zombie survival guide I would bring this book because I love Max Brooks as an author his books have so much scariness.
7: how to train your dragon I have a weird obsession over dragons I think there amazing creatures and I always imagine that I have there powers to fly.
8: enigmas I got this book for Christmas and it is a whole bunch of tricky games that mess with your mind but I think it’s cool when I board.

What I am reading and my rating:
I am reading the “Zombie War” book and it is very scary. I think it has a good storyline to it and it doesn’t have any gory parts. When you’re reading and there is a mini movie theatre going on in your head, you don’t want to picture limbs being torn off or body’s being ripped apart.
My rating: I rate my book a 4 because it has gotten very good and it has hooked me into it. I really enjoy the parts that are like “The zombies are coming in! We have to run!” those are my favourite parts and that’s why I rate it a 4.

What I am waiting for: I am waiting for a pottery class I am going to take with my mom. We practically do it every year since 2009 and I love it. I am going to do the hand building course, that’s when you mould the clay yourself. But I have done spinning wheel before but I like hand building because you can be so much more creative.

Reading blog of the week: I am waiting for a movie called Red Riding Hood. I thought it would be more of a kid’s movie but the genre is a horror film. The release date is 11 March, 2011. The director is Catherine Hardwicke, she was the director of twilight and if she makes it as good as twilight, then Red riding Hood will be amazing

Other blog of the week: As you know from my previous blog entry’s I am addicted to cooking and baking. So I searched for a baking blog this time and I have found one. It is called sweettreatsbakingblog.blogspot.com and it shows a new recipe every week and detailed pictures of what it looks like. The number one thing I hate about cooking books is that the picture in the book will never look as good as what you make.











My challenge:
Hunger games: The lucky charm for this book The Hunger Games was the pin she got from the mayor’s daughter. The Mocking Jay pin helped her through the the games by reminding her what was important. It also helped her  re-entering the games and during the rebellion.  Also Finnick took his spear as his lucky charm and a fishing net to the hunger games.
(This is the only book that I read that has a lucky charm).
