Book report
May 26, 2010
Now that i haved finished reading the book i can say that it was a great book. The tone of the book in my opinion is DRAMA. The main branches of drama in this book are suspence and excitement.
a – Suspence – I think that the book has a LOT of suspence. Part of this suspence is shown when Theo and Kee are trying to escape, the whole ESCAPING process is full of suspence. I love when Theo gets into the building looking for Kee and there are shoots all over the place. I really thought that they were going to kill Theo. From the part that Theo knows that Kee is pregnant the book gets very interesting. I would describe this suspence as PACIFIC suspence mixed with ACTION. There is not much blood, there is enough to get me excited.
b – Excitement – There is a lot of this too in the book. I think that this word can be different for different people. I mean that what i think is exciting might not be for other person. But i will talk about what made me think that this book was exciting. First of all i think is really exciting that a woman is the only hope of humanity and and the same time she almost gets killed several times. I also find very exciting the fact that they have to pass through all this things to escape, they can trust no one. I find exciting the way that things turn out, and the action they go through is very very exciting.
Over all i really enojyed the book. As i said on my blogs the vocab is easy and the meaning of the book itself is very understandable. The level of Drama is perfect, it is not forced Drama, things in the book happen and they by themself have drama.
2 – My favorite character of the book is Theo, his son died and his wife was killed. The book gives you the impression that he has lost all type of hope, but his actions prove another thing. This also relates with the fact that the book touches HOPE a lot. Not in a direct way, but the whole book is about that.
I think that the author is commenting on it. I think he is trying to express in a way that there will always be hope. The book is like a dark room, Kee is like this little light that it gets bigger and bigger. Hope is a common issue in human life. People tend to loose hope quickly, but the book clearly shows the reader that it should be different, that hope should be the last thing you loose.
There are many things that i could talk about but i want to focus on HOPE and the other thing i want to talk about is humanity! I have no doubt that one day we are going to pay for what we are doing, we might not live it but we are accumulating a huge consequence for our future generations. We do not realize it but we are causing things that cant be fixed. We need to be careful with what we do.
It was a great year. i hpe that next year will be better.

This is my last book post of the year! I still need to finish my book, so this post i will write about all the book i ahve read during the year.
It is really hard to pick a favorite book for this year because there were a lot. One of them was DEPT OF HONOR by Tom clancy, also one of my favorite is the last one THE CHILDREN OF MEN.
Compared to last year i would day that this year was less exiting than the last. Last year i was more involved with reading new books. Maybe because last year i really understood was reading was. Beore i used to think about reading that it was boring, but since i started reading Tom Clancys books i understood that there is more on reading than jusv do in it for a grade.
Over all i have enjoyed reading books this year and i hope that next year our new teacher does not change this method. Cause it does not only help us with our grades but also it expands our vocab.
One book i am looking forward to read is Mafia…i heard it is really a good book. It has suspence and blood. I have always liked mafia stories. I am really exited about next year, i hope that i will read a book that will be the best of my life.
It was a good year and i will miss mr c for the first semester of the year.

I have got to a part where Dr Theo thinks he has found a pregnant woman. If this is real then that woman and her baby are the only hope for humans to survive. The book also mentions a migration of people to wealthy cities around the world. This migration occurs becuase some Europians societies have collapsed.
Talking about the woman again, this suces makes an interesting point in the book. How did she got pregnant? well we know how but we do not know why. If all man are sterile then who got her pregnant? Where is this guy? Is there anything special about her?
All this questions came to my mind. And a light of hope came to me. Actually i think the the author did a great job presenting it this way. Because it is not Dr theo solution. She just got pregntant mistiriously. Maybe as i keep reading i will find out why?
The book until know has become bery very interesting. I really did not expect much from this book but it turn out that it is a really good book. As i keep reading the book and finish it in this next week i hope that it just gets better and better.
It does not matter how the book finish. At the end i will say that it was a good book and that i enjoyed reading it. It was an exellent choice to end up the year. I really like this book.

I have started reading the book and it is interesting. It is about how Dr Theodore lives in England and how society is decaying becuase human males are sterile.
I find this plot very interesting becuase it makes me wonder why they are sterile and how are they going to fix that problem. The thing is that if male humans continue to be sterile human beings are coming to an end. Without reproduction there is no way to survive.
I find Dr theo a very smart person, he realizes that things are not going well and he is looking for solutions.
I have not read much but until now the book has become quiet interesting. The book has turn a way since the begining. I say this because it is known that the book plot is going to be Dr theo trying to find a solution to save the human spiece or at least that is what i think.
I think the book has an easy vocab. Your eyes slide the page and it is very hard to find a word i do not understand. This makes the reading faster and maybe more interesting.
I also do not get sleepe when i am reading, that is good. I thought i was going to get bored but the plot makes me want to read more and more.
Until now i could say it is a good and interesting book. I hope that at the end i would be saying the same thing.

The book i am reading is called THE CHILDREN OF MAN. I do not know much about the book. Actually i am reading it because mr C told me it was a good book. I do not know if contains action, romance, blood, or suspence. I read the back part and it looks like it is a futuristic book.
About this types of book, i really do not expect much. This futuristic book have always been atractive but have not been the best. I hope that this book will have a good drama. By good i mean a drama that keeps me reading and does not make me sleep.
I think there is a movie about this book, i am not sure. I will read the book and try to see the movie to comapre. I really like comparing book with movies. The thing about movies is that they do not make you use your imagination like in books, but good movies for me are better than some books. A good example of this is the lord of the rings. I think that the movie is much better than the book.
I hope that this book is good and that i will be happy after reading it. As i said before i do not expect too much from it but i hope that it will surprise me. This is the last book of the year so i really want to finish it fast!!! i have enojyed reading book this year.
