A Quote from Speak

"They say they have noticed me drawing."

          This quote isn't stuck in my head that much but I think it does mean something. Melinda is always saying how parents never notice their child, what they may be feeling, they always say that their child is fine, they don't care. But when Melinda got her Christmas present from her parents. A sketch packet thing, her parents said they noticed her drawing. They noticed. Melinda thought she could spill everything out because it seems as if her parents are finally looking after her and noticing what's going on. But Melinda was too speechless to say anything. After that day, everything became back to normal, it seemed as if that day meant nothing. She never looked back to that, she never mentioned it again. For only that day, she felt as if her parents were finally realizing her.

Highlights and Lowlights so far this Year

          The book I read was Poison. There were many highlights about this book and very few lowlights that I knew of.
Highlights: The book was very interesting and it seems to build up a lot of imagination. In my opinion, the better imagination or creativity that you have, the better you'd like the book because there's a lot of fantasy things in the book and since I think I have creative imagination, the book seems very cool and creepy at the same time. The book does teach you things and to strain from fear. The book is really interesting. It has a lot of action, not bloody or war action, but action as in adventure action..?
Lowlights: I really don't find much lowlights/ negative things about this book. Most of the time, the book is always interesting and it's always a suspense, which makes you wanna keep on reading it until it's done. Yea... so I don't really have lowlights for this book.
          Most people think fantasy books are lame, but in my opinion, they think that because they don't have much imagination to keep the book interesting.
