Text to World ~ Keeper of the Lost Cities

     In the story Keeper of the Lost Cities Exile, Sophie is facing a lot of emotional problems and is really struggling with her friends. While she was in the core of the Earth going to help Alden with a memory break, his mind was drifting away and Sophie had to do everything in her power. It took a lot of strength, but she did it. While they were leaving Alden collapsed and Sophie had to bring him back again. Days passed and everyone thought Alden was okay, but then he passed out and nothing the doctors were doing was helping. They realized his mind was broken, and there is no way to fix a broken mind. Sophie immediately blames herself, and so do some of her friends. Sophie is really crushing herself and letting the grief overcome her.
     This can be very similar to lots of people all around the world. Not only can some people connect to Sophie, they can connect with everyone in the situation because it happens all the time; sadly. When people in families get sick, or are suddenly injured, people have to deal with guilt and the blame game. But at the end of the day it is nobodies fault. In the book, everyone is having a very hard time adjusting and accepting the fact that Alden is gone and isn't going to be himself again. In real life, when someone dies, or is too sick, people have to deal with the fact that they are gone, and might not come back. Families and friends deal with fear, blame, guilt, and sadness. People in the story and real life struggle with opening up and shut out their friends. It is sad that the book can so easily connect with the real world.
     I start to think what it would be like if Alden ends up coming back. What will have changed if or when he wakes up. Will Sophie have anything to do with him suddenly awakening. Or, will he never wake up? Will people recover, or will the grief kill them. I don't like how the author has done this to Alden and those close to him, because it puts more pressure on Sophie, and is putting more on her. Everyone is pointing fingers at her, when it really wasn't her fault. This section of the story is very realistic and emotionally painful to connect to because all of the characters in the book are fighting to press through and move on, but they don't want to leave him behind. I don't know what is going through Sophie's mind right now. She is carrying herself and everyone else. Sophie has to bounce back.

Text to Self: The 100 Cupboards: Dandelion Fire

          I am currently reading  The 100 Cupboards: Dandelion Fire  . It is the second book in the series and it is about a magical boy battling an evil power in which he had released himself in the first book of the series. In the first book, he moves in with his Aunt and Uncle after his parents are kidnapped. He soon discovers that behind the plaster in his wall are 99 hidden magical cupboards that lead to different worlds. The second book continues where the first left off.           I can connect to the main character Henry in many ways because of how he acts and feels towards his cousin Henrietta. To me, Henrietta acts like my little brother. Henrietta was one of the people who caused the huge mess that Henry now has to clean up. She also decided to go exploring the cupboards without telling anyone. In the end she ended up being captured. I believe my brother would act the same way as her if he was in the same situation....

"if your reading this its too late"

"If you're reading this it's too late" is by pseudonymous bosch , is about a fight between max-ernst and ms.mauvais the two main characters . The book starts off with the narrator talking about a secret being let out and could cause danger to the reader and the person in the story , making the plot thicken and making the reader wonder "what's the secret" . in the book so far whats happens is , one of the main characters named max is in a very lucid dream that she wakes up from , feeling like she's being haunted by the thought of the evil ms.mauvais . The problem in this story is similar to an event that happened in history. Like the watergate scandal , in the watergate scandal richard nixon had a big secret going on. He was try to make sure it didn't get out just like in the beginning of my book big there's an ancient dangerous secret going on and if it was let out it would cause chaos . In both of the incidents there's a lot of chaos but...
