Most Interesting Huck Finn Project

I was in a group with Lauren, Kenzie, and Chris. I think that the most interesting project was Kenzie's collage. Her collage was filled with different things about the book and it was very creative. She had a least  5 popups including Emily's easel which was very interesting and i would have never thought to put that  on my test.

Perfect - Pretty Little Liars



Flawless

The book Flawless by Sarah Shepard is a sequal to the book Pretty Little Liars. The book Is about four girls that lost their friend, Allison 3 years ago, and recently they have been getting text messages from someone named A, about secrets they only shared with their dead friend Allison. Throughout the book they try and figure our who A really is and they think it might be a boy named toby, and he may alson be the one who murdered Allison. 

In the book flawless their were many strengths in the book. One of the main strengths in the book was that it kept you in suspense, keeping you reading wondering what was going to happen next. The book had many cliffhangers at the end of each chapter, which had you reading chapter after chapter. The book also went well off the 1st book of the series, so you weren't confused in the beginning of the story  and even if you didn't read the first book you could still read flawless without being confused. Lastly the book was written very well, and you were easily able to connect with the character and feel what each girl was feeling.

The book had very little weaknesses to it, one of the weaknesses was that the the book jumped from one character to the next at each chapter making. This made the book confusing at certain points. The book also didn't have as much suspense as the first book pretty little liars which was disappointing. Lastly at points the book was inappropriate, and i think if they took out some of the bad parts a wider range of people would be able to read the books. 

I think that a teenager from the age of 14 - 17 that enjoy realistic fictions. Think that this age group would like flawless because the girls in the book are around the same age and they could  relate to the girls in the book. I also thing that this book may be a little too inappropriate for anyone younger than 14. I also think the flawless may be too immature for someone over 17, and the book may be to easy to read for a 20 year old. They would also need to enjoy realistic fictions because that is what type of book it is.
