October 24, 2014 Son of Neptune

As I get towards the end of my book, I sort of find the book getting a lot more exciting, but at the same time not as fun as it was before. One reason why I find the book more interesting because on their hunt for a rod percy is looking for, they get into a small war with the other enemies they run into. The biggest enemy they go against are ogres and another group of enemies called Laistrygonians. There is more enemies but mostly these two are the most dangerous. The reason why it is getting a little more boring is because so far Percy has only been searching and really has not had any action until this last chapter.

One big conflict in the book so far is that Percy is still on the hunt for his girlfriend Annabelle and is running into to too many obstacles with the enemies and new leaders. Another conflict is that at the end of the chapter Percy and his group are forced to step on a sort of road in which nobody comes back after they cross it. Percy then steps on the road and sinks into the stony ground. I think this is the biggest conflict so far because without Percy, there is no real leader or strong leader in the group. I think this leads to a theme of being your own leader because even if Percy does not return to take over the group, they all are going to have to be their own leader and do what they think is best to protect the group.

Sports fans going to far?

The article I read because I thought it was interesting was " Do sports fans go too far?" Since I like watching a ton of different sports, I decided to read this article to see if this had anything to relate to how I act. This article mainly talked about how the sports fans act like they are actually a part of that team you are cheering for. One interesting sentence I read from the story was that the Argentinians had a riot since their team had loss the world cup. Luckily for me, I do not go in the streets and take an angry mob with me when my team loses. A connection I had from the article was when it stated that being a big fan can actually make you a happier, healthier person because you can meet and communicate with people you don't know but who enjoy the same team as you. I had a connection to this because that is how I met one of my friends here at this school in sixth grade. In all, for me personally I believe that even though fans may go overboard with their emotions, but they feel this way and do these crazy things because they feel passionate and want to respect their favorite team in their own way.

Son Of Neptune

I am reading the book "Son Of Neptune." I think this book is very interesting and also fun to read because it is adventure. So far I have learned that Percy Jackson has returned back to being the hero he always was but now he is with new people he has never even met before. I also learned that Percy Jackson is a possible threat to his new camp that he just joined. After being chased by Grogons, enemies, Percy was brought into this camp by a girl named Hazel. Hazel swears she has seen Percy before and she is still trying to get answers from Percy, but he still really does not remember anything. I am hoping for some more action as I am getting towards the middle of the book, and I am also hoping for Percy to get his memory back to see what exactly is going on with him at the camp.

AftAfter reading a few chapters of my book I could tell this story is read in third person point of view. I know this because the third person point of view is which the book uses words such as he, she, it or they and those are most of the words I see in the book. I also can tell this is the point of view because I rarely see any 'I's." One example that proves I am correct would be when the story states "Percy shed his pocket. The pen had appeared as it always did." Another example would be "Percy looked down at his tatted shirt." I really like reading in first person slightly more because the author makes me feel like I am part of the story and I think it is better to see yourself in the situations from the book because it can help you understand what your reading more.

Son Of Neptune: Character Analysis

In my new book, "Son Of Neptune" the character that has really been mentioned the most in the first four chapters is Percy Jackson. Son of Neptune is the second book of the Lost Heroes series and I just started book two and find it very interesting. Percy Jackson just met a new character in the book named Hazel and she is showing Percy around his new camp. Hazel is also telling and showing Percy what to expect and what has been going on lately in camp. Percy is also on a search for his girlfriend as we all remember if you read the Percy Jackson series, Annabeth. Percy will do everything and anything he can to succeed in his new camp, find Annabeth, and get his memory back.

The main character in this book is Percy Jackson. Percy Jackson is the son of Neptune and is really the god of water or as the book states, the sea. Percy Jackson is a sort of tall kid with long brown hair and has blue eyes. Percy also has a mother back in his real world, and is father happens to be Zeus. Some would also consider Percy Jackson a brave and powerful hero for all of the heroic things he did in other books. Let's not forget how thoughtful Percy is for his friends and others around him. And finally, Percy Jackson in my eyes and my thoughts as I am reading this book is very protective. Protective to his friends and family, and protective to his teammates at camp. These are all of the character traits I would use for Percy Jackson
