The book I'm reading “The Categorical Universe of Candice Phee”. I think that Candice has a mind of teenagers when it comes to thinking of the real life problems but also chokes around. Like she might have questions but always finds away to ask why. “I thought about the word mature. Could a trust fund behave childishly. Could it blow raspberries, chant silly rhymes,and throw tantrums? Did it then find a job.get married, and take out mortgages? I shook my head. I get these kinds of thoughts a lot.”  The thing that impressed me in this chapter was that Candice know the meaning for some big words that parents adults would use and you would expect a little girl to know the meanings.

The book I'm reading “The Categorical Universe of Candice Phee”. I think that the task that Candice has to do with Jen will get Candice more bullied. Why? Well because Either way Candice thinks that they are both friends that is not true. “Candice Phee, you will be paired with Jennifer Marshall.” I smiled. I like Jen I turned in my chair to share my smile. Jen looked like she’d swallow a wasp. She open her mouth (to protest, I imagine) but, probably because she also chose that moment to take a sharp intake of  breath, her chewing gum lodged in the back of her throat, causing her complexion to change to an interesting shade of blue.” By the way she was even partnered put with people makes me think that other people don't like her and she they try to get close to Candice they will break her or embarrass her in front of people.

The book Im reading is called “The Categorical Universe of Candice Phee”. Some thing I didn't like was how the book started off with her in school and how she was a nerd. May be if they had describe the school a bit more. And with what was going on than probably it would make a reader feel more like in the book. And like they were a character in it. I think also that the characters needs to have a big part in the book. Like the Candice should write about how she feels a school nerd. But other wise then that i think the setting and character were sort of bad.

I keep wondering about how Candice is going to write all those paragraphs with out being distracted on something else of her life. And how she is going to organize on not going in to something extra that doesn't belong in her paragraphs. I think if she write a list of all things she is going to write about and just have some extra as back up if she cant complete her first choice. And after that she can organize them from a-z it would be much easier to do. Cause I think it would be easy to do it like that

Would we be Killed?

The Native Americans where being lied to and having there children taken away because the U.S. didn't like the Native people were like there culture. " Ota Kte's father had told him that this white soldier was taking children to school in the East. But Ota Kte was sure the white man had tricked his father." "The solider was U.S. Army captain Henry Pratt. And he believed that he was saving Ota Kte." The results are that the white people thought that by taking children away from there family they would change there life style so people later on started knowing that there culture would be changed so the kids started rebelling against there commander I would say.

I think the purpose for writing Shanice essay is that she gets to tell people is the real truth of her culture. She explained how they some what recycle by using the animals manure for fertilizing the soil. Also that she as a native American is only apart of 0.7 percent of people in her reservation go to college with her. Some things you know is that people you known from kindergarten follow you up till high school and maybe even up to college I thought that was cool but somewhat boring because you get to know those people for basically your whole life. Lots of things from this essay really got me interested to want to learn more about native people and there cultures and life styles and what type of food they eat.

The book I read “A House Night Novel Marked” . I feel like Zoey needs a little push on her conference level. Because she is has a lot of people she can lean on for help if she needed some. But the only person she is going to  to talk is her grandma cause she feels like thats the only person she can trust with out being judged. I think Zoey became more aware of who she can and can’t trust cause of her old family. She really never felt loved so I thinks its really hard for her to trust others.

The book I read is “A House of Night Novel Marked”. Yes i did like this book cause it had a lot of emotions in it like when they said he ran away it was something that Zoey felt was right but knew she was going to have much more consequences in the future. I also liked how they describe the school how it belong to the people like the Cherokee. And people who had lots of powers in the blood line. Or also people who have been marked just like Zoey.
