book reading



     I am reading Catching Fire right now. It is a good book so far. I like how they ended it off from the Hunger Games. I also like how creative they where with how they are doing the 75th Games.

home run derby

                                       home run derby 

         Last week I played in the allstate games for baseball. I got on this team for being one of the best on my team and winning the state championship. The day before the games they have a skills competition. There are three competitions that you can enter, running, throwing accuracy, and home run derby. I chose to do the home run derby.
  
           I chose to do it because I have never done it because I am not a home run hitter. I had Matthew Garret pitch to me. While pitching to me he hit me. It was fun but I did not hit a home run.

Catching Fire- pg 3 - pg 90

Music

     I think music is very important.For one it lets you express your fellings. Also it lifts you up on a bad day. When I am felling bad I go listen to music. Also there are many different genres of it. So anyone can like it. Also for some people it helps them do work. For example I am doing it now, it helps me write.  

Divergent

                                                                                   Divergent

   I personally thought that Divergent was a great book. There where many things I liked about it. I liked the characters there was almost one for everyone. I also liked how we didn't know what faction she was going to choose till it happened. Also I liked how she changed though out the book.

    However I disliked a few things. I did not like how she was unable to leave the dauntless compound. I felt like it left out Celeb from the book. I also did not like the love part of the book. I would have rathered them stick with the problems inside the compound.
