week #5

              I finished the last of "Fahrenheit 451." I do not recomend this book it was rather boring. Montag rebelled against the no book policy and he got caught after burning down his house and burning Beatty. Life was rough for Montag but he knew it was coming for him. His wife Mildred left him without a care proving the love that never happened because of the society. Although it seems like the right thing to do, revolt, many people did not think so. After burning everything Montag ran and did not stop until reaching Fabers house. Montag knew it would put faber in great danger but he had to tell Faber the news. That was the start of Montags chase. Faber and Montag fled the area with plans of seeing eachother in the near future. Montag went flowing down a river and ran into people who were on his side. Not only did they not find Montag, they made it seem like they did so people of the community did not have to worry. But soon everything will fall apart because they were planning a revolution.

week #4

                    Ive gotten back to reading "Hot Zone," it has gotten very suspenseful because they are trying to find out where the virus has come from. This part is entertaining because they're coming up with all these ideas of where the first case might have happened. They have been noticing symptoms of the virus which do not include many obvious reactions to things besides irritation of surroundings. What happens internally is a different story. The virus has produced other sister viruses that act in the same way but end up having different symptoms. For one of the viruses it attacks your brain and doesn't seem like much but you die in an instance because of a hemoglobin in the middle of your brain.
                   In the book it says monkeys are not a stable homestead for the virus but monkeys are the first huge species that got contracted with the disease. There was this man who exported monkeys for money and such but before they export them he does a check to make sure they are all healthy and okay. When the monkeys end up being injured or sick they are immediately sent to be killed. The mans boss was a monkey lover and felt that the monkeys could get better over time so knowing that they sent the monkeys to a deserted island. So far they have predicted that it was a live feeding ground for the virus to feed off of. I love this book because its not only true its very unexpected.

week #3

So I've gotten deeper into the book of "Fahrenheit 451," so far it is pretty good but it gets a little boring in some parts. This week was about how Montag views his life from a new prospective given by Clarisse. While Montag gets life lessons from a seventeen year old, he is also dealing with a wife at home who does not love him and barely notices his existence. Right now it seems hard for Montag because he is starting to fade away from his job let alone his relationship he has with everyone he knows. Clarisse put a major impact on Montag without him even realizing it, but when Montag heard the rumor that shes dead he felt lost without her. Hopefully I can see if the rumors are true. This book isn't getting better. It remains at a same pace which is b-o-r-i-n-g. I still do not recommend it.

week #2

Yesterday I read a little of the comic version of "Farenheit 451." This book represents the Sci-Fi genre. Although I do not appreciate this genre, I thought the book was very interesting... most likely because it was a comic. The book contains imagery in it but because its a comic the illustrater actually got to represent what he or she saw. I would not reccomend reading this book if you have a high or intermediate level of reading.
            "Farenheit 451" is about firemen who do not actually spend time putting out fires but creating them, with books. It takes place in the future which is why it seems odd to some people about firemen actually putting out fires. What I think is going to happen to the main character is he is going to end up forming an alliance withthe 17 year old girl he met. I also believe they will soon bring back books for everyones enjoyment. Hopefully my guess ends up being right!

Week #1

               "Hot Zone" is a book about ebola. This book is based on true events that happen to people with the deadly, quiet disease. I have not gotten that far into this book but so far it has been a real intense reading. What I have read is about this doctor who ends up finding the first case of Ebola. What Ebola does to you is crucial. Ebola literally eats your body from the inside out; Ebola is one of those viruses that portrays itself as nothing in the first few stages when in reality you have no idea you are on your death bed. Ebola, is one of the most painful killers out there, you start by puking up blood and it pretty much turns your insides into liquid. In the story I am reading the man who had Ebola died in a hospital when he lost too much blood. Yet he died, the disease carries on. Specifically to his doctor after he coughed blood into his mouth, the doctor thought nothing was wrong and carried on working and spreading the disease. Soon i will see what the rest of the book has instore for me.
