Monica, May 7, Dear John

1. Dear John; Nickolas Sparks
2. John and Savannah are hanging out a lot more and they have been going on dates and stuff. Every time they would see each other Savannah always told him that she wanted to meet his dad. So there last date before they went anywhere they went to see his dad.
3. They have a movie called Dear John, but another movie that I think of is A Walk to Remember. Because they fall in love and stuff. John and Savannah are going to be apart and and A Walk to Remember the girl dies and they would be together everyday anymore.
4. I really can't connect other than I believe in true love and blah blah blah. John and Savannah are people that like to be outside and stuff and be active and so do I.

:)
1. One of Those Hideous Books Where the Mother Dies by Sonya Sones.
2. In my book there is a girl named Ruby and she is forced to go and live with her dad all the way in L.A. because her mom dies. Ruby is very scared about going and living with her dad because this will be the first time she ever meets her dad. Ruby's dad is a very famous actor, and she tries to hid from people that he is her dad because she doesn't want people to treat her differently because of him. She is also very depressed because she doesn't get to see her boyfriend or any of her friends because she lives so far away from them!
3. The Last Song, because in The Last Song the kids were kinda forced to go live with their dad during the summer kinda like Ruby is forced to live with their dad, and they really didn't no their dad before they moved in with him..
4. Cameron Diaz, because that is her neighbor.
5. I can kinda relate to her because I have never really been close to my dad so I kinda no how weird it would be to be forced to move it with my dad.

Knights of the Hill Country

Knights of the Hill Country by: Tim Tharp

Hampton is a star football player in high school that is playing in his senior year and if they win this game the win be undefeated for 5 years. They win the game and him and some friends go out to eat after the game.

This book reminds me of Friday Night Lights, the panthers on Friday Night Lights aren't undefeated but they are a good football team that tries winning state football.

I would use the Rock as the main character in my book if I could, even though he is an older guy he is built big like a football linebacker like Hampton is.

I can relate to Hampton because we both like football and play the same position.

A WALK TO REMEMBER

A Walk To Remember By Nicholas Sparks

jamie and her so called lover go to a dance and jamie's dad is questioning her date about everything because he doesn't really like his side of the family. so i dont think they have much to say to each other because they are completely different.

Well this weird crazy book already has a movie to it and its a lot better than the boring old dumb book. The movie is mostly the same as the book but the book goes into to much detail

Shane west And mandy Moore i think would be good characters in this movie because they are good with each other

Landon has brown hair and i have brown hair

5-7 response

1. Title and author
2. Briefly summarize what's going on in your book.
3. Name another book, movie or tv show that reminds you of the book you are reading. Don't give up! There's something out there that you can compare your book to. What is similar to the book you reading and the other book, movie, etc.?
4. If you had to choose an actor/actress to play the main character in your book, who would you choose? WHY??
5. Make a personal connection to your book. How, in some way, can you relate to a character, an event, or something that is going on in your book. Be creative! Don't just say, "The main character is a boy and so am I." That will not work!

Use complete sentences and capital letters!!
