Give the title, author, publisher, copyright date, genre (how do you know the genre -from the back of the book, title page, text?), a description of the cover of the book, and the main character(s) that you have met so far and on what page you first met them. Use complete sentences and ensure that you have proficient mechanics.
Right now, I am reading I am Number Four by Pitticus Lore, which was published in August 2010 by HarperCollins Publishers. The genre of this book is Science Fiction, although they (being the author and the publishers) are trying to pass it off as a real book to serve as a warning to the human race about aliens bent on destroying Earth. I know this because of the author's biography which reads as follows:
Pittacus Lore is Lorien's ruling Elder. He has been on Earth for the last twelve years, preparing for the war that will decide Earth's fate. His whereabouts are unknown.
The cover of the book is a gradient moving from dark orange to bright orange with a sort of bright yellow symbol in the middle. Words on the cover read "Three are dead. I am number four." I found this to be a little interesting, but to be honest, I might not have chosen to read the book based off of the cover because it really isn't that interesting of a cover (see the picture).
I'm about half way through the book at this point (I'm trying to finish it and another book, Angelology, at the same time so that I can continue to make my way through the stacks of books that are next to my bed) so I've met a good many of the characters at this point. For now, I'll make a list of the main characters and where I met them:
- John is the main character, the Lorian Garde who is starting to gain his Legacies to help save his race. He is the narrator of the story and begins the book.
- Henri is the Guardian assigned to watch over John while they are on Earth. I met Henri on page 7.

Hey Ms Luthey,
ReplyDeleteI like how u were honest about the opinion about the cover of the book. What would You add or do to the cover, to make other readers (like you), look at it in a different view and for them to find it more eye catching for them to read.?

Hey Ms.Luthey,

Hey ms.Luthey I can see that you did not underline But I can also see that you are kinda half way in the book and almost done with the book maybe and I know how you said you said it looked boring because of the cover but then you said the book is good because of reading it.
ReplyDeletecould you tell me any more about the characters they seem interesting?
ReplyDeleteHi Ms.Luthey,
ReplyDeleteIts Sounds like a very intresing book. And yes you did not underline your title. No offence it sounds like a very boring book.
Well you didn't underline the book title, also you said you met herni on pg 7 but where did you meet the other character (like what page).
ReplyDeleteYou also forgot to underline!
ReplyDeleteyour book title is NOT underlined

ReplyDeleteHello Ms.Luthey,
ReplyDeletewhat does Lorian Garde do on Earth?
I like how you list your character.
Ms.Luthey,
ReplyDeleteWhat makes those characters, Main characters?
You gave more detail than asked for.
ReplyDeleteWas up miss ummm... Your book is confusing to me maybe its because its science-fiction but yeah what does the boy in the book mean by am the fourth one and da other 3 are dead.
ReplyDeleteHey Ms.Luthey
ReplyDeleteAs I read your blog, I know tis something, my book and this book have the same publisher. And plus on the tile page it said " number three are dead, I'm number four" that make me think the people will die in order of numbers. Like 3 is dead so whoever number four is will die next. I think he will fight for his life.
Jello (: this book seems very interesting but at the same time i dont think i would read it do you like this book? If so is it one of the best books you've read?

Hey Ms. Luthey,
ReplyDeleteOkay for starters, I liked the format you put your blog. I liked how you gave quotes of the books but you didn't put any quotations around them >:I. I also would have liked it even more if you would put what you think of your characters.

ReplyDeleteI am number four is a great book and I know this because I have read it. Lets say you'll enjoy it. Anyway, you explain everyting very well and your blog is very organized(even though everything you do seems organized). I also remember you saying your also trying to read this so you can see the movie and well even that is AWSOME and I'm positive you'll love it too.
