As I am getting closer to the end of the book, I think it is safe to say what the whole book is about. Mazerunner is about a 16 year old boy who lost all of his memory and was sent to the inside of a maze. His name was Thomas. While he has there he figured out how to make friends and that he needed to do a lot of work to survive. To get out of the maze Thomas had to become a runner and destroy the monsters.

James Dashner was born on November 26, 1972 in Austell, Georgia. His parents were Linda and James dasher. In Utah he received a master's degree in writing . Dashner and his wife Lynette have four children and are now living in the Rocky Mountain.

This book r lates to me becaus when the main characters are people that take risks. Sometimes when I look at myself and think of what I am, I would think that I am person who would take risks. Some example of where I might takes risks are at soccer for attempting to get the ball and at school when I am taking tests don't know an answer.

In the book Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets the setting it still the same a the first book. The setting is hog warts. There has been one part that I read where it shows him going to when he grew up. Most of the setting in the first few chapters is at his house Grifindor.

I think the book Harry Potter and the sorcery stone is character driven because it explains how Harry make friends and how he develops in to a better wizard. The book is also setting driven because when I first read when he comes to hogwarts it explains what it look likes.

I think that Grifindor is the right house for Harry because of his bravery. His bravery shows when he talks back to his aunt and uncle about getting his letters and going to Hogwarts.

The setting in the book Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone is hogwarts. Hog warts is the magic school that wizards go to. In the beginning is starts in Harry's uncles house but only for a little bit. The n it shows how he got to hog warts by train. These are all the setting that I imagined in the book.

I haven't read much of this book, but I am assuming that the book is character driven because it is about him knowning about his parents and the legend about hog warts. I think that the book is also setting driven because the few chapters I read, it describes a lot about where they are at.

I enjoyed reading the book divergent because I enjoy reading any book that has adventure. There is adventure in divergent because when she leaves her family and joins dauntless, it is one big adventure and competition to get in the top twenty people to become dauntless instead of frictionless.

The book Divergent is character driven and setting drivin. Divergent is character driven because the main character,Tris, has to become a dauntless in order to stay from being fraction-less. Also,she's a divergent and the council wants all divergent to be destroyed bet he council look at them as a threat. The book is setting driven because they created their own city and they are working together to protect it.

I chose this book because I like to read adventure and action books. This book has adventure because tris leaves her parents and joins one of the hardest division.

The reason I like the book divergent so much is the action in the book. The action in the book is exiting because some people die by killing them self or by getting killed by another. I have always liked action book, and this book is one of my favorite book of all the action books I have read.

The setting in the book divergent a piece of land that is surrounded by a fence with dauntless people every where. Some scenes they go underground to see where they stay and train.

Tim Howard, a fantastic goalie, breaks a record of saves in one game of the World Cup. He saves 15 shots against the Belgium team. In the end they lose 2-1. Although Tim Howard losses, he is still happy the be broke a World Cup record.

This book is both setting driven and character driven. It is setting driven because Tim Howard is traveling telling us his life from place to place. The book is also character driven because it tells us how Tim developed as a player and as a person. He has developed a lot as a person because he couldn't just stand around when he was a kid and now he plays goal keeper.

The most surprising part of The Great Hamster Massacre is the part when they show the hole that jake and his friend made to see each other. This is suprising because they made a big hole through the wall and they are just kids. Wouldn't their parents find out what they did because the noise is so loud. Where would they get the tool to make the hole and where would they put the broken wall.
