Title of Book: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
The chapter I've just read was a bit boring but towards the end it was only alright. First of all Harry was visiting Ron in the hospital wing before going down to the quidditch pitch. Just as he was heading down he saw Malfoy walking down the deserted hallways.I found it very peculiar that he wasnt town at the pitch like the rest of the school. Also this is the second quidditch match he has missed and Harry really thinks there is something up. He was indecisive whether he should play the quidditch match or follow him. I agree with Ron when he said that Harry is obsessing too much over Malfoy. He nearly missed an important match and he's the captain! But Harry might as well have followed Malfoy as they were thrashed in the quidditch all thanks to mcLaggen. Not only did he let numerous goals in, he also hit Harry with a bat!! So now Harry is in the hospital wing alongside Ron. I found it funny that Harry ended up in the hospital wing 3 consecutive times! But a little good came from the day as Harry has now two new spy-buddies to spy on Malfoy........ Kreacher and Dobby! Im really eager to read on as the next chapter is called
"Lord Voldemort's Request"

This bit was strange. Harry was just coming from the explaining of the last task when Vicktor Krum asked Harry if he could talk to him. He was asking him about Hermione when they saw Mr Crouch talking to a tree thinking it was Percy Weasly then he fell to the ground and started saying "the dark lord has return. Get Dumbledore" i really want to find out what Crouch is up to because he is acting really suspicious. He hasn't been judging the Tri-Wizard tournament even though it's his job. Also Rita Skeeter has been writing really mean things in the Daily Prophet and Witch Weekly i really want to find out how she has been getting all this information from because it's not an invisibility cloak. I love the way the book has loads of things in it that the movie does not because even though i saw the movie there is still allot of surprises.

The bit I've just read it was Ron's birthday. Ron had a great birthday.....NOT! Ron was poisoned, given a love potion and he got this weird necklace from Lavender what a birthday. Also Harry was forced to replace Ron with Mclaggan for their next quidditch match and now every time he sees Harry he starts blabbing about how he could make the team better, of course Harry has little or no time for this with Ron and Draco Malfoy. Every chance Harry gets he checks the Maraudors map to see what Malfoy up to. I think this is wise but I also think he should be focusing more on the task Dumbledore set him. The task about Harry finding the memory Slughorn tampered with. Everybody is wondering who poisoned Ron. I've seen the movie but there isn't a clear view on who has done it. The author I think purposely does that to make the reader wonder. I cant wait for Harry to find out what Malfoy has been up to all this time because then there will be a big fight and I really love reading about fight scenes. Since I've seen the movie I have no prediction

The bit i just read was about the yule ball. harry went with pavati and ron went pavati's sister padma. ron was jealous because hermione went with victor krum. i don't understand why because he wouldn't have been able to go with krum anyway!!!!!! i n the movie hemione wears a pink frilly dress to the ball but in the book she wears a blue silky dress. ron's dress robes were frilly and lacey where as harrys was basically a tuxedo. i wonder where harry got his robes?? if he lent them from the school or something i don't understand why ron didn't do the same?? hermione keeps telling harry he should do what cedric said and have a bath and bring the egg with him but harry doesn't listen which i think is a bit stupid, he should at least give it a go.. i have already seen the movie so i have no prediction. :d
the hunger games
I'm reading this book because the film is coming out soon and I want to see the differences between them. All I can say is this book is AMAZING! You have everything in it like war, romance, adventure, the list is really endless!! Anyway, I've just read about Katniss proposing to Gale that they run away. Gale first agrees but after he heard there's been an uprising in District 8 he decided he'd stay and fight. After he firstly agreed he told Katniss he loved her, and she said I know! So as you would, Gale stormed off with his turkey on his belt! That brings me to Gale's whipping. He was punished because the NEW?????? Head peacekeeper caught him with his trustworthy turkey! He was lucky because poaching in the woods is punishable by death and if he died the affect would be that the rebels would have lost an amazing warrior! Katniss also got a lash by protecting Gale but it was only an eighth of the pain Gale was feeling.I thought Haymitch was very brave and (as always) funny in that scene because when Katniss had a big swollen lump from the lash, he was complaining that she wouldn't be ready for her photo-shoot! He was also brave because when Darius (another peacekeeper) told Thread that was enough, Thread hit him and he is now unconscious.
I have read this book before so I know what's going to happen.

the hunger games
I'm reading this book again because its so amazing!!
My last prediction was right when I said the Capital would throw Katniss and Peeta a huge engagement party. Katniss felt relieved that she didn't have to impress President Snow anymore but she is still worried that he is going to do something horrible to her family and to Gale's. At the party, Katniss danced with Plutarch Heavensbee the new Head Gamemaker, well Katniss thinks that. Everyone thinks that until the end of the book where it is revealed that he is actually part of the uprising! I noticed that he seems lovely to katniss in the second book but then gets more and more, well its hard to describe but he gets, he sort of feels the power so gets kind of cocky. The one thing that intrigues me is that Plutarch has this time-piece with a shadow of a mokingjay, of course its confusing until the end of the book but even when he explained what it was for I was still confused!! Maybe it will be different the second time round?? I also noticed that Effie is soooooooooo punctual. When they left for the train she had an account of how long it would take and weather there would be traffic!! I predict that there will be an uprising in many Districts and Katniss will soon meet Bonnie and Twill! I know this as I've read the book before.

Title: The Hunger Games Catching Fire
The book is very impressive and vivid book but I prefer the first book but I'm only on page 59 and I for tell it will definitely get much better! One thing I don't understand is why the mockingjay at the front cover is in a different position to the first book. I wonder if it has anything to do with what the book is about. All I know is its on fire and I predict means the book has something to do with mockingjays on fire to knock out tributes and to annoy Katniss because they remind her of Rue. I feel very sorry for Katniss because in my opinion being thrown into the Hunger Games is tough(even more than tough) but then the Capitol wanting to kill her and Gale, not able to make her own future and maybe having to marry Peeta the person she doesn't want to look at because of what happened on the train. If my last prediction was right I wonder how Peeta is going to survive in the Hunger Games this time round because of his leg and I have a feeling Katniss won't do a lot to help him and probably (like the last Hunger Games) wants someone else to kill him because she doesn't want to. I predict ,at District 11 a man will do the three finger sign meaning the symbol of rebellion that District 12 do because of Katniss and Rue's time together in the arena and the Capitol will shoot a bullet through his head.

I'm reading this book because (as Beth described) it is just so
exhilarating and vivid the first time I just had to read it again and I've just seen the trailer for the film. I've just read about the victory tour and Peeta proposing, not for real of course but to satisfy President Snow. Alas President Snow is never satisfied. I really agree with Haymitch (my favourite character) when he said that she could do a lot worse. Katniss proposed the idea of Peeta proposing. Haymitch thought it was a good idea but Peeta got very emotional :(. I understood why because he has an un-dying love for Katniss and Katniss doesn't know who she loves or who she'll marry! It's quite ironic because he loves her in all the books apart from Mokingjay when he thinks she is a mutation because the Capital tortured him into thinking that. I always get the shivers when I read about the Peacekeepers shooting the poor old District 11 man for using the symbol of rebellion. Life in Panem was very tough. I predict that the Capital will throw the couple a MASSIVE engagement party and Peeta will tell all of Panem about he baby!! Yes Beth a baby!

I'm reading the Hunger Games because I enjoyed the first book and I anticipate this one is going to be just as gripping and vivid! I thought Mr. Snow was nice but it turns out he's on the Capitol's side. I wonder why Mr. Snow didn't kill Katniss on the spot first when the cameras got a glimpse of her in the wood or Gale and when they were in the office because I would have thought he wouldn't care if district 12 started a rebellion because the Capitol (in my thought) have the strangest and mightiest army compared to the whole of the districts put together! I had a lot of predictions but Aoife told me that they're half right and half wrong. I predict that the Capitol surprise for the quarter quell will be to put the winners from the 74th Hunger Games (which is Katniss and Peeta) to get back at Katniss and their enjoyment!

I got it from the library and when I looked at the cover the first thing I saw was the shiny silver sticker BRAND NEW BEST-SELLRER. Then I thought it was deffinitly worth a read. So far it's Ella's mum going to hospital with her husband Jack because she was getting a baby. Ella was very disappointed she couldn't go. Her mum had a healthy little boy , but her mum fell into coma. I feel very bad for Ella but I think she is being very selfish because she blames jack and Liz. I predict that Ella is going to start liking Jack because he seems very nice.

Title: The Hunger Games
I'm reading this exhilarating book because Aoife, Roisin and Elina all recommended it to me. I've reached page 369 and Haymitch just gave Katniss and Peeta platters of food delivered by parachute. I thought it was unusual that Thresh let Katniss go and didn't crush her scull unlike Clove. I was happy she died though because I really loathed her from the beginning. I also thought it was strange why Clove didn't kill Katniss straight away knowing Thresh could have jumped out of a bush and kill her. My understanding of that is because she wanted to make Katniss suffer but it wasn't a smart idea in such an open place. I wonder why Thresh was dangling Kato off the ground and how he killed Clove at the same time? I also don't know how Thresh is going to die because no one(I think) can defeat him? I predict Kato will kill Thresh and Katniss will finish Kato off and Foxface. Or Foxface will use her sly and cunning talented to kill Thresh, Peeta will defeat Kato as a comeback and Katniss will kill Foxface. Either way Katniss and Peeta will be victorious!!!

I'm reading this book because I'm going to read all the Harry Potter
Books in the series and I'm nearly there!!
I've only read to chapter 6 and so far it's only okay but I think it will get better as I go on!
One of the chapters was about Horace Slughorn. (A previous teacher and Head of House at
Hogwarts School) Dumbledore is trying to recruit him back to Hogwarts for some reason.
I think that he want's him back because Dumbledore needs a memory from him about Voldemort!! Yes I know very strange!
In the chapter that I'm currently reading it was about Fred and George's joke shop! Really Funny stuff!! On a sign outside their shop was written:
Scared of You-Know- who?
You really should be scared of....
U- no- pooh?
the constipation sensation that's gripping the nation!!!
I was on the plane when I read that and when I started laughing everyone was looking at me!
After Mrs Weasley read that she was so worried that Fred and George would be killed
personally by Voldemort. I certainly agreed with her and was worried about Fred and George's
safety but found it absolutely hilarious!!!!!!!!!!

I picked that category because that is probably the most interesting one. I have read loads of different achievements, but if I was to pick out one, I would pick the largest hot dog .It measured 40.64cm. I don't really like hot dogs(they are ok) but if someone asked me to take a bite of the largest hot dog I would say YES. I wonder how much food they used just to make that one hot dog. As I said before I would love to be in the Guinness World Records for my collection of kinder toys(I have 164)!!!

Also again I noticed that Mrs Dursley has blond hair as well and in the movie she has brown. Also I don't see how anybody could like Dudley over Harry. Mr Dursley has been seeing weird things like a cat with a map and owls all over the place. I think it would have been funny if Mr Dursley had called the police or something and nobody believed him!!! I don't see why the Dursleys are embarresed by having wizard relatives because if that was me I would think it's so cool and want to visit them all the time!! I don't have a prediction because I have read the book!!

I have just read about the puddle of blood that they found in their sitting room. Mr Otis has whipped the blood even though the housekeeper advised him not to. The next morning they found the puddle again on the same spot but it was black.I don't know why the twins weren't terrified of that, because if I was their age I would be screaming. They heard a ghost and still didn't do anything. I think the ghost will keep putting the blood there so they would do something .I predict that the ghost will play horrible tricks on the family and make them move so he won't be disturbed.

I would be very freaked out if i have just moved to a new house and everyone is telling me that it is haunted and then I find blood on the floor in the sitting room. I like these kind of mystery books because I really want to know what is going to happen next. I predict the family wouldn't mind the story about the blood but something else will happen to them.

Hello I am reading The bridge to Terabithia. I'm on page 68 chapter 6 as everyone else in the literature (might be the wrong spelling)group. In these last three chapters Jesse Arrons and Leslie have been taking about Terabithia. Jess and Leslie also tricked Janice Avery(a mean seventh grade girl who took Jess's sister's sweets I think they are and Jess and Leslie swore to her that they'd get revenge on Janice) into a date with a second grader. She was furious the next day. Janice is mean and nice is in her name weird. That's really it bye. B-p

Title of book: Adrian Moles
I am reading the book Adrian Moles because I saw it in the class library and thought it was worth reading. So far it is pretty boring. The book is based on a diary and he writes everything about his day. The book over uses a lot of words and its quiet frustrating hearing them over and over again. I feel sorry for Adrian as his parents are the most weirdest parents ever and not in the good way. I noticed that even saying a swear word in Scotland (that's where the book is based at least with the current info I have) could lead you up in to jail if that was true in the whole world internet would be so much safer!. But I have not read the book enough to start judging it. I would give it a firm 8 & 9/10 for it is a pretty humour based story .

Title of book: Adrian Moles
I am reading the book Adrian Moles because I saw it in the class library and thought it was worth reading. So far it is pretty boring. The book is based on a diary and he writes everything about his day. The book over uses a lot of words and its quiet frustrating hearing them over and over again. I feel sorry for Adrian as his parents are the most weirdest parents ever and not in the good way.

Title: Hunger Games
I'm reading the Hunger Games because both Roisin and Aoife recommended it. The first thing I noticed is that there is nothing about the author at the start or the end of the book but there are questions that Suzanne Collins answers at the back. And at the back of the book instead of renowned newspapers commending her story there are people praising the book instead. I usually find that at the start of a book it starts off a little boring but gradually gets better but the Hunger Games it starts off really good and that makes you want to read on. The book is so good when my granny came to visit she read it and gave it top marks!!! The book is also written in present tense. Usually all the books I read so far have been written in past tense which makes this book different. I predict Katniss will take her sister Prim's place in the Hunger Games and make her district proud.

Title Of Book: The Jungle Book
I am reading this book because it is part of the reading workshop. It looked really good when I looked at the cover because it seems very interesting. I have seen the movie and I have read the original book. I have reached page 11 and so far it is about Shere Khan getting into the village chasing all the villagers because he was hungry but all the people ran into their huts and locked the doors, but Mowgli was left behind. Mowgli ran into the forest while Shere Khan was chasing him, but Mowgli toddled into the wolf cave. Shere Khan tried to get him out of there but he failed. The wolves kept Mowgli and he became one of the wolves. If I was to be Mowglis mum I would be very shocked and scared if I left my child out with a tiger. I wonder if Mowglis mum is going to try and save him because like she is a mum in some way. I also wonder why the wolves wont eat Mowgli because I'm sure they don't get the amount of food they are supposed to get. I predict Mowgli is going to become a wild person and live in the jungle.

TITLE OF BOOK: SOCCER SHOWDOWN
I am reading the book Soccer Showdown because it is part of my reading workshop. I have just started the book. So far Michael missed a shoot but it was ok because it was only training. Then he tried again with a defender blocking him but this was way! harder for the defender was non other than the captain Josh. Michael and Josh were good mates but often liked to play against each other. I connected this to when I am playing with my friends i often want to play against them because its more of a challenge. The reason they were training was that they were part of the school team and they had the cup finals the very next day. I predict that next Michael will score a goal and it would be the equalizer and the match will end in extra time and make it more nerve wrecking than ever.
