Reading Responses

My response is to Rick Riordan last book of the Percy Jackson series, the Last Olympian


In the book the main character, Percy Jackson fights in the hardest battle he ever fought, he discovers new things about his father and about the Olympians and Titans. He meets new friends and enemies like other demigods and Titans.

Living in a camp, it gets kind of boring since your stuck there for 100 years, But that will soon change in what will come of Titans vs Olympians
 
Later in the book, he finds out that Luke, an used to be friend is controlled by Kronos, the Titan Lord. Percy and his friends, Annabeth, Thalia, and Grover must go on a quest to beat Kronos and all of his army.

He takes on the hardest creatures Kronos gives him. Though he doesn't fight by himself. His friends and family are with him all the way and don't forget the Olympians.

The book shows friendship, family, and love. He has a relationship with his friend Annabeth and gets closer to his dad Poseidon. It shows Percy going through tough times but all worth it.

In the end of the book, relationships get closer, Percy is growing mature and not losing cool when somebody gets on his nerves. he learns a lot at the end of the battle. Though it might be hard not to remember what happened to him, he will still love camp half-blood and everybody there.




   

Papa's Waltz

In Papa's Walt, the poem gets confusing at first. In the beginning I thought tha the father was drunk and he abused the boy. But when I kept reading it, I thought proabaly  the poem was about the dad and the boy was just dancing and got dizzy and thats why in the poem it mention that the pans were falling.

 It did get confusing when it mentioned a belt buckle, I thought the kid was getting hit or hurt and it also mentioned something like the smell of whiskey could make a boy go dizzy, which made me think the dad was drunk.

Maybe Im wrong or something But I think the message was not about abuse or anything like that but probably describing what happen when the kid and dad were dancing and enjoying themselves.

People's Blog

I really like Jose's blog because he puts his heart and passion into it like you could really tell what he's focusing on. Sometimes you coud actually see him in his writing by the way he dscribes and tells it which I taught was good.

I really like other blogs to like Noa's and Gabby G. Because you could sometimes relate to what they say, you could clearly undertsand what they say in their blogs.
