the alchemist

i connect with santiago because he is also a teenager just like me.i think we are also the same because i like to dream alot too.also santiago is very determined in lokking for his treasure and trying to reach his goal.i am different from santiago because i am not a shepard and because im not as wise as him.im also different because i dont like to walk that much.i do agree with his choices because if i could go and find my treasure i would.i think it was a very good choice because this could be once in a lifetime.i woul make the same choice because i would also like to find my treasure as well.caring for someone might change my mind because i wouldnt want to leave them and i would miss them alot.too much that i wouldnt want to leave.

words from the alchemist

the word OASIS is an isolated area of vegetation in a desert typically surronding a spring or similar water source. oasis also provide habitat for animals and even humans if the area is big enough. URIM AND THUMMIM were used to answer the question innocent or guilty,the old king probably sed urim and thummim to answer if the criminal was innocent or guilty and he gave it to santiago so that he can answer his important questions.OMENS may be considered either good or bad depending on their interpretation.the same sign mat be interpreted differently by differnt people pr different cultures.

the alchemist

this is in the second part of the alchemist.i thought this was intresting when santiago and the englishman took a ride on the caravan through the desert to find santiagos

treasure and to go tomecca.i think its really cool that santiago went on a ride throught the desert and for it not to take as long as it would walking.

the burning journals

the book im reading is called the burn journals by brent runyon. it is a true story about his life and how he tried to commit suicide by trying to burn himself. the reason he did it was because he was going to get expelled. when he told his friend, his freind said "hey,thanks". he had tried to kill himself many other ways but they never worked. he is telling his life and i think that he souldnt have done that but i do recomend this book to other people to read.

author letter

dear gail carson levine,
i really like your book "fairiest".i think its suck a good book because the people talk like if they are in the older times.to me the book is like if you are trying to re-write the fairytale of snow white except that aza doesnt think that shes pretty and thiks tat everyone thinks shea the ugliest thing in the world.Aza is the same as snow white because they bout have a beautiful voice.I think that Aza is going to find herself in alot of danger and is going tbe in an adventure.

the alchemist

when i first started reading the alchemist i liked it because it was so intresting to me.What i like so much about the book is that the little boy is so determined to find the treasure that he keeps dreaming about.When he talks to the king he does not belive that that was the really the king until the king shows him the golden sheild he was wearing.
My favorite character is Santiago because he would do anything to find the thing that he is looking for until he finds it.it makes me think that if i set a goal on something like Santiago then i can also try and go after that certain goal.

the book i am looking foward to reading is midnight sun which is the last book of the series but this time stephenie meyer is rewriting twilight and instead of bella telling the story edward is going to be telling it.iam so excited because in bellas story they dont really say what edward thinks or what he is really saying so this time the fans get to know whats really on edwards mind.this book has not come out yet but i have read some of the first chapter and what people are going to be shocked to read is that edward didnt fall in love with bella right away he was only fustrated that she had the only mind that he couldnt read.so that means that it wasnt love at first sight he was just very frustrated.i have not read more but im predicting that as soon as edward started getting to know bella and she was able to figure out what edward really was she was able to except him.that may have been why edward thought she was so amazing.a book that i am actually reading is called the alchemist i think that is a good book because it talks about who a boy had everything and his future was to be a priest and instead he chose to become a sheperd so that he could travel the world
