So far, I see a change in Montag's view of the society. at first, he is passive in his view of society where books are burned and passed as 'Dangerous'. he begins to realize what he is missing and the huge flaws in the society. this is proven when he hesitates to burn the books.

The page number cannot be stated due to the fact that I am reading it as a part of a volume of Charles Dickens novels. That being said, the main idea so far is that the times are depressing and the weather is just as depressing, which foreshadows grim events.

So far in this book, the events that happen are full of action and suspense, like the time they were trying to outrun the army.

So far, I think that the main Idea of this book is the revolution and change in the way society views kings and other monarchs. This is showcased by this quote: "no more will a small handfull of men control thousonds."

So far, I believe the author's purpose of writing this book was to inform people about America before it split from England and also to entertain because it is of the genre of historical fiction.

So far, this book is good. it is a biography of Steve Jobs, (well Duh) and my favorite thing so far is the way that the author writes and describes the affect he had on people. "People would beleive him when he was around only to come to their senses after he had left."

So far, the author's craft is to describe the scene and then to explain what the characters are doing and to tell what they are thinking.

Troy has become less depressed because he is starting to feel good about himself because he is good friends with curt, the popular kid at school. I know this because some of his dialogue. he sounds more sure of himself and much more proud.

Troy is going to his first concert with his friend Curt and he has become more courageous over the past few chapters. I know this because he said "I ... No. I mean I won't." He said this after he was asked to be in a band but he later realized he had made a mistake.

(article called "A pill that tells when it's taken" in Popular Science Magazine)
The Main idea of this article is that if a new system of monitering medicine was successfully implemented, it would avoid the complications of not taking your medication correctly. "...will help families better monitor their loved ones..."

(article called "The Genius Within") in popular science.

The main idea of this article is that sometimes, suffering a severe head injury can cause you to develop special abilities. "...ordinary people who suffer brain trauma suddenly develop almost suprhuman abilities..."

I am now in the early 1900's. my favorite theory so far is the theory of special relativity. "the speed of light... the speed of the observer"

The main idea of this book is basically a summary of great scientific achevements in the past 600 years. so far i am in the late 1800s. many of the things in this book are very interesting. like this: "An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain... until an external force acts on the object."

so far, this book is communicating the difference between two friends and one has started to mature and the other is still caught up in his childish ways. this is starting to interfere with their friendship.

So far it turned out that after all, the "bomber" was the one who was injured by the bombs set up. the bomber was Grace Wexler's daughter Angela whom was thoght of as perfect until this moment by her mother. this is an important turning point in the story because we find out one of angela's flaws, and we also find out that Angela's sister "Turtle" (that's her nickname) was in on the plot.

so far, Troy is feeling better about himself now that he has a friend who is popular in school. this turns around his life beacause now that he has a higher self esteem, he is not as sad as before.
