Camie is not what you think of when spy comes across your mind. She is a teen attending Gallagher Academy. It is the best school for spies . So far, Camie has gone to go visit her roommate , Macey in Boston at the end of her summer break. Camie is with Macey to watch Macey's father accept his nomination for Vice president of the United States. When entering junior year, Camie has this feeling that Gallagher Academy isn't safe anymore. Is there trouble heading Camie and Macey's way or is it an adventure just waiting to happen?"After all, I'm here to watch Macey's father accept the nomination for vice president of the United States(Carter33)." If I could ask Camie a question, I would ask her if she always wanted to be a spy because I'm interested in her opinion.

Cap is moving in with a guidance councelor and her daughter while his grandmother is in the hospital. Mrs. Donelly is nervous for him the second she sees him because he is dressed like he is from the 70's. She knows it isn't going to go well for him at the beginning. "...The moment i saw him standing there with all that hair and all those beads, I just knew..." (Korman 10). If I could ask Cap a question it would be, If you were going to a new school with new people around you then why wouldn't you try to get help from someone to learn about everything that was normal to the school you are going to?

Jeffery has just got over cancer and has gone back to school to live a normal life. One day he goes to school and there is a new girl. He automatically falls in love with her and asks if he can bring her too class. The next day he sees her in the hallway and she has dropped her books. Obviously he has to help and is late to class. “She was crouched on the floor picking up papers, along with the contents of her backpack”(Sonnenblick 10).Finally, she walks in the same class as her and ends up sitting next to him to. If I had to ask Jeffery a question, the question would be, do you think that you will get in a relationship with her? Or will you guys just stay like best friends? I would ask him this because the book will be totally different if he like goes out with her because the book will have a lot more drama.

So far in my book the girls are having a sleepover. They are doing each other’s make up and making fun of this girl Imogen. “The others groaned. Ali was imitating Imogen Smith, a girl in their class who was a little too in love with her Nars Lipstick.” (Shepard 27). This was a flash back to when Ali was still alive. The girls had just caught Spencer’s neighbor, Toby, watching them.
If I was to ask a person a question it would be Ali. I would ask her if she ever really thought of Aria, Emily, Spencer, and Hannah as true friends. I would ask her this because throughout the whole first book and even in the beginning of the second book she treats them horribly. But still you can tell that she has their backs.

Suddently Carlos is accused of having drugs in his locker after the police find different pills and a bag marijuana in his locker. Carlos didn't do it but who did? That answer is still a mystery and now Carlos ha no choice but to go back to Mexico “...or go to the REACH program after school,”(Elkeles 81).Carlos can't go back to Mexico where his mother lives because his mother feels it is not safe there and Carlos can't go to the REACH program. Carlos does have one other choice that he doesn't like and is forced to do by his brother Alex. His other choice is to live at his brother's prefesor's house. Who also lives there is a girl named Kiara who goes to school with Carlos and is the same age as him too. Carlos does not like this one bit at all. If I could ask Carlos one question it would be why is he always complaining about where he lives? I get it isn't his original home but atleast he has somewhere to live right?

This book is a sequel to the book Matched. It is about a seventeen year old boy named Ky sent away to fight in a war. There is also a seventeen year old girl named Cassia. This book is told in both of their point of views. Ky is doing as best as he can to survive in the Outer Providences while Cassia is desperately fighting to reunite with Ky. " All of this-faraway province, work camp, dirty hands, tired body, aching mind-is because Ky is gone and because I want to find him"(Condie, 6). Cassia is working solo with a few strangers at the farmlands hoping to get clues on Ky's location. It seems as though every time she becomes closer to him, he moves farther away. Ky is an Aberration, meaning he has one purpose in life. He must work for he Society until he dies meaninglessly. "The Society wants us to be afraid of dying. But I'm not. I'm only afraid of dying wrong. This is how Aberrations end, The officer tells us impatiently"(Condie, 5). If I were to ask one of the main characters a question, I would ask Cassia why she chose Ky over Xander? She could have had a loving, close husband and a nice family with a longer, healthier life. Yet she decides to fight and go through months of hard labor and puzzle the pieces together just for Ky, who may not even recognize her.

A school at an island off of Maine is in danger of closing because there is not enough kids enrolled at the school. The kids who go to that school currently, would have to go to school on mainland. So the Brooks family has taken in a foster child. The kid’s name is Aaron and he is a little shy. He doesn’t like to talk a lot and so far he doesn’t like living on the island. “Can’t you shut up for a minute?” (Lord 34) this is Aaron telling the narrator , Tess to be quiet. In the story Tess does ask way too many questions on the first day that they met.
My question is to Aaron and it is:
How did the Brooks family make you feel when you first came home?
I would ask him this because Tess made the whole situation sound awkward and I want to know the feeling of what it is to be welcomed into a new environment.

For Eon being the Mirror Dragon Dragoneye has its benefits, but it also includes plenty of other duties such a training and responsibility. Eon is now learning how to control the flow of Hua to find the power that hides within his dragon. Eon spoke with Dillon about how he needs to find the Mirror Dragon folio in Lord Ido’s library. Eon is speaking with Lady Dela and her guard Ryko about how Ryko was a thief before coming to the palace. “Up until a few years ago, my life was thieving, fighting, and drinking.” (Goodman 247). Eon needs Ryko to help him break into Lord Ido’s library to re steal the Mirror Dragon folio that Lord Ido stole.
If I could ask Eon a question I would ask, what would you do if the Dragoneye council allowed women to participate in the magical study? Would you immediately reveal your true identity as Eona or would you keep that a secret for a few more years? I would ask Eon this because he might be shocked to learn that the Dragoneye council now allows women. Also, I want to see if he would reveal his identity as Eona because she really hasn’t acted like a girl since she was chosen by her master as a Dragoneye candidate.

Mulligan, Andy. Trash. New York: David Flicking Books, 2010. Print.
So far this week, the book I am reading, called “Trash”, is about two boys named Raphael and Gardo hiding a lot of money and a key that could leed to solve a murder mystery. Raphael and Gardo are trying to find a new spot to hide the money and the key because the police have heard that they found something and are keeping a very close eye on the both of them. Raphael and Gardo had their friend Rat take a look at the key, and he said that the key is a key to a very valuable safe in New York City. Now, Raphael and Gardo have gotten on a train and are headed to New York City, seeking to find out what the key actual goes too. Raphael even said “ We swung up and in through the windows- there is no glass and no bars”(Mulligan 41). He is describing what it was like to get on the train.
My question to both Raphael and Gardo: Are you guys going to give the money and the key back soon? I ask this question to them because the police have offered a reward for whoever finds the items. The reward could be worth more then what they have, and they have already made some money to pretend to look for it. If they add the money they found and what they worked for, they could profit more and not get into any trouble.

So far in the book, The Hunger Games, Katniss and Peeta get sent to the Hunger Games. At first Katniss's sister Prim gets sent, but Katniss volunteers so she doesn't have to go. Basically the Hunger Games is a game where 24 children from the twelve districts of Panem, one boy and one girl, get sent to a landscape. The game is to see which child can survive. The children both fight the conditions of the climate and kill each other to fight to the end. Also, Katniss's family cannot eat very well without Katniss hunting for them, so without Katniss there to feed them it is going to be difficult to stay fed. "'I volunteer!' I gasp. 'I volunteer as tribute,'" (Collins 22).
Charlotte R.
If I had to ask Katniss a question it would be do you think that you can win the Hunger Games with the skills that you have from hunting? I would ask this because she is very good at hunting and so maybe she could hunt people as well as animals.

The book "The Clique" is a series about five girls; Massie, Dylan Alicia, Claire, and Kristen, and their summers. Massie is a very rich, conceded, and selfish girl. The book starts off with her at her horse camp; Galwaugh Farms. Her and her teammates are about to start a competion, there is one girl named Selma who is EXTREMELY clumsy. She is consistently falling off her horse, the other girls are nervous that her clumsiness may cost them their competion. Massie decided to make a quick decision by putting leather glue one Selma's saddle so she wouldn’t fall off. The head of the competion found out about what she did and kicked her out of camp for good. This is how Massie's summer really started... The camp Massie went to was very expensive and her parents were very disappointed, so to punish her they told her to get a job and made Massie payback every penny, they also took away her visa (her pride and joy other than her dog bean). Massie has never lifted a finger not even to do her hair or paint her nails! Massie wanted a "jobby." A jobby is a job hobby or a job she would want to do. She decided to be part of "Be Pretty Cosmetics," The line of cosmetics is focused directly on inner beauty, something Massie never had to worry about since she is considered to be the most beautiful girl in her school. Anastasia Brees, creator of the cosmetics, has a legendary purple streak of hair, one thing that makes her stand out other than her natural beauty. Only people on the "in" have the streak, Massie REALLY wanted one. Instead of telling girls how pretty they are she told them how ugly and imperfect they are. Since this information came from the gorgeous Massie Block, every girl bought the full set of cosmetics which cost around three-hundred dollars each! Within one week she had more than enough money to back her parents and get a noticed by the founder of be pretty cosmetics Anastasia Brees. In fact Anastasia was so impressed she had Massie take an interview with her for being the youngest person to sell so much in so little time. Anastasia even had some of the girls Massie "helped" make a video. Anastasia thought Massie had succeeded so much by being kind when in fact she was doing the exact opposite. During the video Anastasia pulled Massie aside and told her how mad and disappointed she was. Massie promised to apologize to the girls which made Anastasia happy. The two girls went onstage and all Massie did was say thank you for everything and left, but before she left the building she quickly took the purple hair dye pen out of Anastasia's purse, which was out of site back stage and put the streak in her hair. I guess sometimes good thing do happen to truly hideous people (hideous on the inside that is). "Wow, you’re ugly! ... On the inside." (Harrison 113 and 114)

After escaping an underground department store, the trio of Leo, son of Hephaestus, Jason, son of Zeus, and Piper, daughter of Aphrodite, begin traveling once again on their dragon made of bronze, Festus. As Leo falls asleep, he has an illegal dream of himself and his godly parent, Hephaestus having their first face to face encounter. When he gets awakened, they end up crashing into a mansion’s front lawn in Omaha, Nebraska. They surprisingly make it alive past turrets and death traps, although it took their dragon’s life in the process. “ ‘Festus,’ Leo said miserably. ‘He took the fire. The lasers sliced him to bits as he came in so they didn’t focus on you. I led him into a death trap.’ ” (Riordan 339). As they proceeded into the dark mansion, they didn’t know what to expect…
If I could ask a main character from my book a question, I would ask Leo what it is like to see your father for the first time in 15 years since he was born. I would ask Leo this question because I have known my dad for my entire life, and I would like to know what it is like to not know him until I was in my mid-teenage years.

Katniss, realizing Coin only wanted power for herself, shot Coin with her arrow instead of former president Snow. Guards took her away to her old room in the Training Center. Haymitch, her old mentor, came to bring her back to the surviving area of District 12. He tells Katniss that Paylor was elected president after Coin’s assassination. Gale was sent away to District 2, and Katniss and Peeta got back together. “What I need to survive is not Gale’s fire, kindled with rage and hatred.” (Collins 388).
If I could ask Katniss one question, I would ask for her opinion on Gale’s important position.

Stacey, Amber and Drea are looking for this girl Clara to tell her some bad news. Stacey has nightmares that actually come true, she can predict the future. They just met this new girl and now she's having some bad nightmares about her that she's gonna die. Stacey doesn't know how she's gonna die but she has a freaky feeling. The three girls meet Clara at a resturant, they tell her the news but she just giggles like it's all a joke. "Wow" she says with a giggle as though I'm certifiably whacko" (stolarz 54) When Stacey has these nightsmares she gets weird side affects. Like with these nightmares about Clara she wakes up with a terrible nose bleeds. But with other nightmares the affects would probably be different.
If I could ask Stacey one question it would be "How do you deal with your ablility to have nightmares about the future and to know people are going to die?"
