Ungifted

I have finished the book "Ungifted and what happened was that it wasn't just Donavan talking the whole time. It sometimes changed into other kids personal thoughts about Donavan. What happened was that Donavan wasn't doing so good in the ASD because he just really believe in himself. Then people just kept thinking that he wasn't going to pass anything in his life. Until he finally thought that he could do it. He tried and worked hard for only one test. People were saying "I'm not saying he will pass the semester, I'm just saying he is passing the big test." He also started to realize that he is gifted but none of the others don't have the gift. Thought of it to be silly and anyone can do it. Then once it started getting towards the end of the book it just talked about other people that were at ASD. I will let you find out what thats all about.

I found something about the book that keeps on showing up. Every chapter starts with "un". I think that is because it wants to show something negative about someone. I think that it is also showing that all the people in the ASD that are "gifted" aren't perfect. That is probably why Donavan start thinking more positive about himself because he notices that about everyone. That is what I noticed comes up again and again in the book.

Tolerance

Tolerance to me means acceptance because everyone is different and they might be real different from you,but you still go on and talk to them as you would to anyone else. Also when people say things like Gay, Dyke, and Faggot, I think they should think about the people around them because they might never know how someone else might feel

Ungifted

I have started reading a new book called "Ungifted" by Gordon Korman. It is about a  kid in Middle School named Donavon and he thinks that he is Ungifted. He is alwasys talking abaout how no one in his family is like him. He thinks that he is different, "Ungifted" he says. He alwasys likes to fool around in school and pull pranks on people. What he did was a prank and instead of getting in serious trouble, something goes wrong and he is sent to Academy of Scholastic Distinction (ASD). This is where "Gifted" people are sent. He doesn't think he belongs their. Donavan says that only the best of the best go here. That is pretty much all the interesting parts of the book so far. 

I think that the book isn't going to be great because so far what I read it's boring. I think that I am going to abandon this book because I do not want to sit and read something I don't like for 2 weeks. Nothing is  happening really, he just goes on and on about his life and he just won't change topics. So I guess I'm going to abandon the book. 

The Maze Runner

The book that I am reading right now is called "The Maze Runner" by James Dashner. I haven't read much because I only just started on saturday. So What happens is that there is a kid names Thomas and what happens to him is strange because he wakes up in an elevator, but he cannot remember anything in his life except for his name. I would Have been scared for my life. Wouldn't you? So then he stays in darkness for a while until a door above him opens up and a couple of other teenagers pull him out with a rope. That is all that I have read so far but can't wait for more.
I want to make some predictions on the book and about what I think will happen. I think that since the book is called "Maze Runner" The teenagers will have to go through a maze with obstacles. I think this because when Thomas was pulled out with a rope I could imagine them wearing a suit that allows them to move more. If that does not happen then I think that it will be something that no one in this world would expect. That is what I think will happen in the book "Maze Runner"
