Week 14: FINAL POST

1. This project has changed my views on reading. Now I know that it isn't unhealthy to read. I used to be fearful of it and cowardly hide from it. I actually don't get surprised looks when I walk into the library anymore!

2. I will be an avid library visitor and reader....hopefully.

3. Throughout this project I read....
Seriously... I'm Kidding- Ellen DeGeneres
The Funny Thing Is... - Ellen DeGernes
My Point...and I do Have One - Ellen DeGeneres
Doormat - Kelly McWilliams
Kissing Doorknobs - Terry Spencer Hesser
Jerk - Jonathan Friesen

Week 13: changed thoughts?

Throughout this project, I have actually become a more advanced reader. I always used to pick shorter books with shorter chapters and easier plots. Now, I choose longer books with longer chapters and plots that actually make me think. It was a good experience for me to learn that there's more out there than I Spy books and Where's Waldo. I know I will continue reading more detailed books as I step into Mrs. Jahn's AP English class, but I know that because of this project, it IS possible to read many books in a short period of time.

Week 12: inferences

I started reading the book 3 Days. I am not too far into it, but already alot has happened. The girl's dad has suffered a heart attack on their way home from a restaurant in Italy (where they are vacationing). A car keeps driving slowly by, and that's where I stopped. Now, I'm just spit-balling, but I'm going to assume that they kidnap her. And, going by the title, in 3 Days, I think that the little girl will escape. I don't know how or when, but I feel it coming.
