The most exciting part of the book so far is when Victor finally is brave enough to get back at Bull and punches him in the face. It is kind of wrong because it's never good fighting back fire with fire and also the fact that Bull has a broken wrist and messed up leg and can only lay in his bed, that's why Victor took the opportunity to punch him after years of bullying and Bull always beating him up but I'm pretty sure Victor still felt good after punching Bull.

I was breathing harder than ever. Every part of my body was on fir. i couldn't go inside, or everyone would know something is wrong."

Jordanp56 | 9 comments Sunrise Over Fallujah by Walter Dean Myers Sunrise Over Fallujah by Walter Dean Myers the best part right now is when they just started going into their first mission (training mission that they don't know about until they do the mission) and they are surprised on what they find. "we kicked the doors, I couldn't tell if the house we were in was an apartment house or one family. it was neat." they were going in their first training mission that was to prove if they should attack innocent people for no reason or let them go to see if their loyal and then it turns out to be a real mission that they were not ready for.

"I got a new brown bag again from frank" Bull said this because he got another paper brown bag from frank and it always has a note in it this time it said "I miss you bull" bull don't know why he is sending them.

Luis F | 10 comments Homeboyz by Alan Sitomer
The most exciting part in my independent reading book right now is when Teddy probes the CLETS files and finds something interesting about Maggot and it said that he had killed his sister. A quote to support this is "Teddy read the rap sheet on the teenager who sat in custody for killing his sister...had been arrested eighteen times since the age of ten, with more and more serious charges on his rap sheet the older he got." This quote supports the most exciting part of the book im reading so far, because it's showing how many bad stuff Maggot did.

Adrian Almanza | 10 comments Sunrise Over Fallujah
The best part right now is when they are going into war and they are searching for houses and the kind of people that live there , they are not sure if there friendly or not.My quote is ''We're doing a house to house search in this area.''pg 53. This quote is supporting about what im saying by telling what has happened most interesting in the story.

Cristina Avellaneda | 6 comments Silence the most exciting part of my book is that im getting to know the characters one by one. i see how much cole cares for Oakley and he protects her from julian, julian is a guy that bothers her because she doesn't want to speak up. you can see the love they have for each other just being friends. " its okay" he told me. knowing exactly what that gesture meant" page 60 this is one many gestures that oakley does that Cole understand i feel like thats a huge part in the book but cole really understand oakley but i still don't know why it is that she stopped talking.

Jennifer (JenniferEsparza) | 2 comments After We Collided (After, #2) by Anna Todd
The most exciting part from the book After We Collided by Anna Todd, is when Harry and Tessa get in a huge fight the day before a special dinner with family and friends, so to make Tessa jealous, Harry took his gay friend Lillian as his date to the dinner. Tessa did not know Lilian or that she was gay, so she was angry at Harry, and jealous of Lillian.
"The girl looks slightly lost and a little uncomfortable. Good. Harry leans into her and says something to her and she smiles at him before shaking her head. What the hell is happening?
"I'm Lillian, it's nice to meet you." She introduces herself with a friendly smile.
"You too," I manage to say in return. My heart is hammering in my chest and I can barely see straight. If we weren't at the table with Harry's family and friends I would throw a drink in his face, and he wouldn't have a chance to stop me from slapping him"ch 219
I chose this quote because you can tell exactly how Tessa is feeling. She's confused, angry, and jealous.

Andrea Navarro | 10 comments Everybody Sees the Ants
Book: Everybody sees the ants.
Author: A. S. King.
I'm just starting the book, and the most exiting part is when Lucky help the girl in the pool even when Nolan is trying to intimidate him. It's exiting beause he is always shy with Nader and never defend himself.
Quotation: "Thanks", she says. "I hope it doesn't get you in trouble with those assholes." I look up and see Nader standing there, glaring at me. (Page 15)

Natalia A | 10 comments True Believer by Virginia Euwer Wolff
The most interesting part so far is that LaVaughn's moms boyfriend has been lying to her mom about paying the bills. LaVaughn's mom kicks him out. In the book LaVaughn's mom says to Lester, "You told me an untruth, Lester... You have three minutes to collect your hat and coat and the flowers you brought and walk out the door..."(184).

Ana Corona | 10 comments Clockwork Princess (The Infernal Devices, #3) by Cassandra Clare
The most exciting part I have read so far is that Mortmain is taking the automatons to destroy a village and Tessa wants to stop him but she has to be destroyed to. Tessa decides to destroy her clockwork angel that hangs around her neck and she descovers that a real Angel have been imprisioned there. " Her hand tightened savagely around the angel, and she tore it from her throat, casting it to the uneven rock floor just as a log fell in the fir, sending up a spitting colum of red sparks" (394). "The angel's wings were broad, spreading out from it's shoulders, each feather tipped with gleaming metal.Its hands were folded over the hilt of a greatceful sword. Why do you try to destroy me? Its voice was sweet, echoing in her mind like music.Its not you I seek to destroy but myself. Buy why would you do that? Life is a gift. I seek to do right, she said. In keeping me alive you are allowing great evil to exist. I have been so long in my clockwork prison that I have forgotten good and evil. Clockwork prison? Tessa whispered. But how can an angel be imprisioned?" (395. This shows how did Tessa discovered that in her clockwork angel was a real angel traped inside.
