Well Struszy, it has been a long run, and to be honest im not quite sure that I managed to beat you. You were a worthy opponent and i commend you on your outstanding valor. But alas, this competition between two titans of the books must end. I may have lost once but the eternal reading competition is not over. During this assignment I read two books, i read the the third book of the Eragon series called Brisingr, this book was a whomping 752 pages. And now im finishing up Witch and Wizard which is a little over 300 pages. i finshed the book and it wasnt really that great of an ending since nothing exciting happened. but all in all i think i had some fun reading!

In the book that I am currently reading, i think the theme is hard work pays off. The kids are showing this in the way they go after their parents.

Now were back with Wisty. she is currently sprinting around trying to find a way away from the guards. she runs out on to the roof and gets chased to the edge. she tries to run along a tight rope but she fails to notice the knot. she starts to fall but her fall is shortened by the lifeless corpse of the person who used to visit them in jail.

So this week my friend Mr. Strusz told me that I needed to relate my book to a passage from the Bible. Well I know that this might not be original at all.....but I picked Proverbs 16:3a which says "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." I pick this because during the book the main characters never give up in trying to get back their parents. Although the book doesn't mention anything biblical it still shows a great amount of perseverance.
Now the book. We left of with Wisty plummeting towards a pack of hungry rats in a garbage pile. Since she is a rat you can see why she would be a little scared. The rats surround her, but just in the nick of time she transforms back into a human which makes all the little rats run in fear. Lets check back in with Whit. Oh man, hes getting chased down the railroad tracks in his van, by a train. Who would have thunk? Well anyways, he can't seem to get the van to start and the train is barreling towards him and the passengers in the van. He frantically shouts at the van and at the last second life is breathed into the van and it takes off down the tracks. I sure cant wait to see what happens next.
