That is the question.
Ah, blogging. The true way to tell people what you think. If you’re using a pen and paper you can only show the people in your family and the people in your town but blogging makes it so you can tell the world what you’re thinking. I’ve been blogging for about 6 or 7 months and it’s added something to how I write.
Time to compare
I think that if I had the choice between paper and pencil VS. Blogging I would choose blogging. Blogging is a lot easier for me because typing does not take that long and its like playing the piano. Your fingers have to move in the same way. The sound of your fingers against the keyboard and the smooth flow of your hands moving across the keys…you can’t get that from a pencil and paper. Sitting in a class room listening to the teacher talk and talk about language arts and telling us what writing should be from some book compared to just getting to write and let people know what you think all over the world is so much better. Getting to learn in a different way and learn from other students and hear there views on things is (I find) more interesting because its more than just what a book has to teach you. It’s someone else talking.
The Reasoning
I write. I write a lot and to be able to write freely about something that I might be shy about is great. If people like it that’s great, but if they don’t like it its better then standing up in front of a class and have people laugh or point or snicker. You get to connect to people that you would have never met otherwise and you can find out what other classmates are really like. You can make friends with someone in your class that you might not have ever talked to. If you go and read their blog you get to know what their like and who they are.
I could talk forever about how great blogging is but instead if you want to know what it’s like to blog then you should find out for yourself.

Your probably thinking “Why would someone name a post uglies?” well Uglies is the first book in the Uglies Trilogy . The books takes place thousands of years in the future were everything is electronic. If you do something your not supposed to what ever was there will tattle.
A girl named Tally can’t wait to turn 16 so she can get the operation to become pretty. Her best friend Paris is only three months older but has already become a pretty. One night she decides she has to see him and ventures deep into New Pretty Town. Luckily she finds him and gets to talk to him. He wants her to stay out of trouble and not come back into new pretty town until she becomes pretty. She has to make an emergency exit and bungee bounce off the roof. When she is almost to the bridge (the only one that wont tattle) she sees someone. She holds very still and hopes they wont see her and go away. She thinks it a guard but they don’t move. Finally she gives up and just lets herself be caught, but to her surprise its another girl who was trying to find someone. Her name is Shay.
They end up being good friends and one day Shay wants to go to the Rustie Ruins and old abandoned cities with only the steal frames of buildings left. Tally had been there with school before but Shay and her would be going on their hover boards. She decides she will go and When they leave shay says that Tally will love the rapids in the river and she’ll show her the roller coaster. When they get there Shay shows her the roller coaster and then insists on finding one of her friends David who is not from where they are. Shay sets off a flair but no one answer back so they go home. In the next couple of weeks they go back to the ruins every night but never see David. One day Tally and Shay pull a prank on the new kids moving into there dorms and when they’re out they go swimming and end up getting in a fight. They haven’t been talking for a week when one night Shay comes to talk to Tally. She finds out that Shay has been trying to find David for the last week and that she isn’t sure if being pretty is what she wants. Tally thinks she crazy but then Shay tells her how some of her older friends didn’t get the operation and ran away. They invited her to go but she chickened out and she wants to go now. Its only a couple days before the operation. Then the story really starts.
This is a really good book and I really liked it. Its pretty long because this is only like the first 50 pages. There are lots of words on each page and around 700 pages ( I think).
Scott Westerfield is the author
In class we were making book covers! My book is called Crescent! As you know I love the Twilight series and so my book idea is kind of obvious (Vampires). Here is what the back of my book cover says and I am going to write this book.
“I walked into the room to find it empty. I felt a sudden rush of cold air and then there he stood at the front of the room waiting, watching, wanting, thirsting for my blood with coal black eyes. a Shiver ran down my spine. Crescents last breath or just a dream?”
There are some fake reviews but I dont remember them of the top of my head.I will be writing this book and I will post it on my blog.
I have finished reading the Twilight series and I have writing about three of the books but… now its time for my review of the forth book Breaking Dawn!
Its the middle of the summer and everyone is gathered at the Cullens house. Why? because there is a wedding. Bella and Edward are getting married. You can hear the foot steps going down the stairs. Everyone looks back as Bella walks down the isle with her dad on her arm. After the wedding Bella and Edward are gone to catch a plane but Bella doesn’t know where to. Finally Edward spills. Their going to Rio De Jaunaro. after 2 weeks Bella gets sick one morning but it goes away as suddenly as it came. She thinks it the chicken she had. She goes over to her suit case and looks at her stomach. Edward walks into the room to find her sitting on the floor. She stands up and goes to the mirror and stands sideways in front of it. A bulge on her stomach is already there. The decision is made and there going home. Bella seems to disappear for a long time Charlie (her dad) only gets phone calls and she hasn’t talked to Jacob since the wedding.
This is such a good book and I’m sorry that this is the last book in the series. It has 756 Pages and lots of words on each page. I hope that you read the series and enjoy it as much as I had ( the movie is really good but try to read the book first)!
Stephenie Meyer is the Auther of this saga.
As you know I have been reading the Twilight series. I have now finished the third book Eclipse!
When Edward left last year Bella was a wreck. She lost almost all her friends. In the time her friends broke into two groups. The good and the evil. “Us and themworks to.”. Now that Edward is back the dividing line is stronger. In the mean time a mysterious killing spree is going on in Seattle Edward gets worried about Victoria ( James old mate from book one who is looking for revenge on Edward because he killed James.) having something to do with it. One day Edward (being a vampire and all) goes on a hunting trip. Bella’s old best friend was a werewolf and Edward’s family and the werewolf pack do not get along. Edward gets Alice (his sister and Bella’s best friend) to basically kidnap her for the weekend until Edward got back so Bella didn’t try to go to the werewolves. Bella doesn’t really mind but she does not like the idea of being kidnapped. When Bella is aloud to go home she find that most of her stuff is missing. When she tells Edward to get Alice to give her stuff back he has no Idea what she’s talking about. A myterious visitor? A vampire seeking revenge? Read the book to find out.
This is a really good book. It has about 640 pages I think. I love this book so much it is my favorite other then the last i the series.
This is another great book from Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga.
This is the book.
I wrote a post about My favorite book series Twilight. This time its the I’m writing about the second book in the series New Moon.
In New Moon, Edward has to leave and Bella falls into a depression that seems to rip a whole in her chest when ever she thinks about him. Edward makes her promise not to do anything stupid or reckless and in return he promises it will be like he never existed. He takes the pictures she has of him and the CD he made her. She doesn’t eat or sleep for days and when her dad is ready to send her away because he’s so worried, she throws a fit like never before. Her friends would call but she wouldn’t phone back and because of her not phoning back she loses her school friends. Her days become more and more sad and she refuse’s to let go of the fact that Edward was her true love and she will never forget him. One day she meets up with an old family friend and she starts to seem happy again but her promise to Edward gets broken. She starts to do stupid and reckless things because when she does something stupid she hears his voice.
She finds out a new vampire is trying to kill her because Edward killed her mate last spring when he tried to kill Bella. She seems to be running from everything since the Cullen family left but, will they come back in time to save her from what seems to be the end?
This book Is really good and has a lot of suspense. You never know whats going to happen next with Bella. New Moon has about 560 pages and just like the first book lots of words on each page. I recommend this book for anyone that wants to read an exciting book. This book WILL make you cry. You should read book one before you read book two.
Stephenie Meyer is the author of the series.
If your looking for the book this is what it looks like.
Just recently I have began to read the Twilight saga! I read the first book in three days!
The Twilight books are about a girl named Bella who moves from Phoenix to live in Forks, Washington with her dad. Forks is a rainy cold wet place and she doesn’t like any of those aspects. One her first day of school she walks into the lunch room with a new friend she made and sees a group of people that look fairly alike and VERY beautiful. She asked her friend who they are and she answers back with a giggle and then says “Those are the Cullens.” and at that moment the story begins.
The Books are fairly big and have lots of words on each page and there are about 515 pages. The genre is Teen Novel, Romance, and Fantasy. The twists and turns in the storey are amazing as you hear through her mind what is going on. I would suggest the books for people who love to read and can handle scary moments and cry worthy moments. Oh and watch out for the VAMPIRES.

Warriors is my favorite book series.
In total there are 6 series right now. The Warriors series is about forest cat clans. There are four clans in the forest: WindClan, ThunderClan, ShadowClan, and RiverClan. These clans have lived in the forest forever, their warrior ancestors (starclan) lead there way. In each clan there is one leader one medicine cat and one medicine cat apprentice. The rest of the cats in the clan are ether warriors, apprentices, queens, or kits. The queens are mothers.
The first book in the series is Into the Wild where the main character in the first series Rusty becomes a forest cat after leaving his owners which the forest cats call Twolegs.
It’s a fun adventure fantasy that I love. I hope you read the book and enjoy it as much as I did.
