Who is your favorite character in the book so far? Or the one you find most interesting? Describe how the author uses characterization. How does s/he look, talk, act, react?

Respond in 4-5 sentences. Use your best spelling, punctuation and grammar. Remember, this is mastery!

Try to use ONE quote from the book that describes your character in your response!

Nyahele | 5 comments So Far my favorite character in the book is the main character Jomo. The author describes him as a tall darkskin boy with a haircut. He is Brolic. He gets mad over little things. When he gets really mad he throws in a couple of curse words. He kind of reminds me of myself, thats why he's my favorite character !

Jovanni | 5 comments My favorite character in the book so far is faskia.She is my favorite character because she kind of like the person thats the peace maker. That wants everybody to be happy and work out situations without a fight/problem. The author makes it seem like she is a serious person. She acts like she is a caring person and she cares for anybody/everybody.

Javon Beverly | 5 comments My favorite character in my book is Trina. Trina is the bipolar daughter. I find the things that she does interesting. Trina can act like a little innocent girl one time and then change to this woman who is fighting and cursing at her mom. The author describes Trina some one who can't really live on her own.She has to be watched to make sure she is taking her medication. I think reading about the way she acts the most interesting.

Marie Esther | 2 comments my faverite character is edward because the way bella talks about him,it seems like he is cute and smart. he doesn't do much, when one of bella's friend was talking she said'' that is edward he does not go after girls in this school, don't waste your time'' that seems really cute. because most of guy they go after girls they don't know but from what the girl said you can tell that he is special.And also because he doesn't have a lot of friends, because when people have friends, some of them will tell them what to do, mess up their head.

Chanisa | 6 comments My favorite character so far is Hassan. He's just so sweet and loyal. He's stronq also even though he gets teased alot. I say he's loyal because one day he asks Amir if he thought that he would ever lie to him. So Amir says "I dont know, would you?" Then Amir says he would sooner eat dirt. so Amir says "Really, you'd do that?" Hassans like do what? Amir says "Eat dirt if i told you to,". Hassan says "If You asked, i Would," looking him right in the eye. - Kite Runner ; Khaled Hosseini

Jonathan Scott | 5 comments My favorite character in the book so far is Agent V.153. She learned how to kill with any blade, how to change identities when it was required, and how to improvise complex strategies with little notice.Improvisation was her greatest strength. She also possessed a great natural beauty and a way with people. She is young which puts her above suspicion.

Darius | 5 comments My favorite character in the book so far is the main character Eugene Jerome. Even though his family had finacial problems during the great depression in the 1930's he always had a little joke that would put a smile on everyone's faces.

Kasandra | 2 comments My favorite character in the book so far is samantha. Even though she is just a 13 year old girl she is trying her best to stay in control of her life. Things start to get to intense for her that she starts going out with a senior in high school just for attention.


message 11: by Shakeela (new)

Shakeela | 2 comments So far in my book, I think that Micah is the most interesting character because i think that its crazy how a person could lie so much and think its ok, or admit it like there is nothing wrong with lieing. Micah also said "Why is she asking me about the truth?She knows im a liar."

Lee | 5 comments My favorite character in the book so far is Ama - A young girl. Ama brings Lyra food in the cave where Mrs. Coulter has hidden Lyra. Ama also leads Will to the cave. Her daemon is Kulang, who hasn’t taken a shape yet. The author characterizes Ama as the protogonist or the good guy.

message 17: by Johonna (new)

Johonna | 5 comments I dont have a favorite character in the boook. I dont find any of the characters interesting. The main character uses characterization because of the way acts. She acts as if she wants certain things to happen but then again she doesnt. But I dont really understand that well.


message 18: by Jasmine (new)

Jasmine Joseph | 6 comments So far in the book, my favorite character is Jacob who is Sadie's husband. He has endured a lot such as witnessing his fathers murder and his mothers mental demise. He is strong and has basically seen it all. I like his mysteriousness, though it must have been extremely distressful for Sadie. All the book say's about his physical features is when Sadie's mother refers to him as "black as tar."

Fatima Toure | 5 comments MY FAVORITE CHARACTER HAS TO BE MAIA, LEIGH'S GIRLFRIEND. I FIND HER INTERESTING BECAUSE SHE STANDS UP FOR HERSELF AND THATS VERY INSPIRING. SHE'S KIND OF LKE A ROLE MODEL. I LOVED IT WHEN SHE SAID " LEIGH,I JUST CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE. YOU TREAT ME AS IF IM NO ONE YOU KNOW. I THINK ITS BETTER IF WE BREAK UP BECAUSE MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME BETTER ... AND THIS ISN'T THE DEFENITION OF BETTER SO GOODBYE!"


message 21: by Helena (new)

Helena Koudou | 5 comments My favorite character would have to be Donnie.Donnie is like the glue of the family. So he makes it his responsibility to look out for his older sister and fix his parents issues. Even though he's the younger brother or the first born, he still manage to keep the flow going. That's why I find him to be the most interesting character in this book.
