So far in class we have read all of Act 1 in Romeo and Juliet. So far I have enjoyed it very much. I like the many literary devices that they have used such as metaphors and personification. Also I have liked how many characters are foils like Tybalt and Benvolio. But, some things that I have disliked about the play is that sometimes the words that they use I don't know so it makes it hard to comprehend what they are trying to convey. Also I interpret some of their phrases differently than I was suppose to. I am excited to see where the play goes next and learn to understand it better.

Currently I am on the last book of the series Divergent it is called Allegiant. A few of the people who escaped the city found out that the whole time there had been living in there they had been watched every second of everyday. They found out it was experiment and that's all they were. They are furious and are questioning everything that they have known all this time. But, most of all their afraid of the unknown of this new world. They now have to adapt to this new lifestyle. I'm excited to see how this will effect them.

Divergent

Over the break I finished my book The Host and started reading the book Divergent. My new book is what you could say a mixture of the book Matched and The Hunger Games. Like Matched the people have the way they live their life mapped out for them and like Hunger Games they live in separate communities and each one has a totally different life style. The book starts with a girl named Beatrice who lives in the community that always put each other first and does not want anything in return. Beatrice does not fit in quite right in this life style and that would all change when she goes in for her test to find out what community she fits into. When she gets her results she finds out that she is something called divergent. This is that she show traits of multiple communities, she is also told it is very dangerous being one of these rare people. She then has to chose if she wants to stay in her community, Abnegation or make probably the most drastic change to a community that protects and fights for the country called Dauntless. Beatrice ends up choosing Dauntless. I'm excited to see how her unique test results play into her way of life in her new home.
