The book talk I did on the book "Breaking Dawn".I think I did pretty good on it but I say the last book talk was much better.Cause I couldn't finish what I was saying on the book talk since I probably ran out of time while the last book talk I manage to get my point in the story.Also that I have to talk about my book with my group members which made me nervous so I probably didn't do so well on it.While the previous book talk I had to talk to one person and was easier for me cause I mostly talk to one person at a time without getting nervous or shy.

Respond to Reading
I think what will happen next that after Bella and Edward has convinced the Volturi that Renemees is not an immortal child, they will continue their lives has vampires.They go back to their normal routine in their immortal lives.Plus maybe a few bumps in the way to ruin nice things since Bella is like a magnet for danger. So the Cullens plus Jacob will protect Renemees and probably Bella too.

Current Indepentent Book
The book I'm reading right now is the twilight saga "Breaking Dawn".So far I read is that Bella and Edward are getting married and then have their honeymoon.But it ended shortly because Bella got pregnant and they return to Edward's house to see Carlisle to be perfectly sure if she is pregnant.Later her pregnancy progresses rapidly,and making her weak.She almost dies giving birth to her daughter Renesmee(half-human-half-vampire), but Edward injects his venom to Bella to save her life plus making her into a vampire.Bella starts getting use to her new life as a vampire after two days of being paralyzed or "burned" from the venom of the tranformation and also having Jacob around alot because he "imprinted"(an involuntary response in which a shape-shifter finds his soul mate) on her daughter.Later,while Bella,Jacob,and Renesmee(nicknamed Nessie) where in the forest,a vampire from another coven sees Renesmee and mistakes her as an immortal child.She goes and tell the Volturi, as the existence of such beings violates vampire law.The Cullens gather their friends from other covens to come and be witnesses who can verify that Renesmee is not an immortal child.After an intense confrontation, the Cullens and their witnesses convince the Volturi that the child poses no danger to vampires or their secret, and they are left in peace by the Volturi.

Connections
The book I'm reading is "Eclipse",the theme is connected to the other book I read called "Catching Fire" because they both talk about how the main character is a female and they both don't know who to choose to love.Bella has to choose between Edward and her best friend Jacob.At the same time Katniss has to choose between Peeta and her best friend Gale.The other thing that they connect is that there's a big scenario between the story before the main character decides who they choose.
In "Eclipse", Victoria has an army of newborn vampires and kill Bella for revenge for her mate James,that died in the first book by Edward before James killed Bella. While in "Catching Fire", Katniss and Peeta has to do the Hunger Games again because they got caught cheating,in the first book they were going to kill themselves with the poison berries that Katniss found during her survival scene but instead they both were announce winners,so they have to do it again with the old winners from years ago.

Prediction of the Main Character
Well I think that Bella and Edward will continue their relation and live happily ever after.But I have read the second book "New Moon" and my prediction seems silly.Instead on this Edward break up with Bella and moves away for her to be safe and live a normal life.Bella's heart is proken and fells depressed for months. Soon starts hanging out with Jacob, trying to heal her pain from Edward.She later starts having feelings for him but then Alice comes to check if Bella is really dead from jumping of a cliff for suicide.Alice explains to Bella that Edward was about to kill himself in Italy.So they go to Italy to stop him.He soons realize that Bella is still alive and begs her forgiveness to take him back.She did forgave him and continue dating.
Mini Theme Analysis
The book I choose to do this is Twilight by Stephenie Meyer.Its about a girl named Isabella "Bella" Swan and she moves to Forks to live with her father.On her first day of school, during Biology, she meets Edward.He seemed angry with her and left really quickly as soon as the bell rang.After a month or so of adsentes,Edward came back and starts talking to Bella.She then figures out Edward's family's secret that their vampires.Later they fall in love.With Edward's protection and her friend Jacob's reassurance she learns to deal with her situation.That love is stronger than temptation, and can be found in the most unexpected places. For Example, Edward is drawn to Bella but has to resist the temptation. and That love can overcome anything.
Song or Poem
The song I choose that connects the book "Twilight" is Decode by Paramore because in the book, Bella is trying to figure out what Edward is.She got the information she need from a n old legend told by her family friend Jacob.Later, she did research on the internet and finds out that Edward is a vampire.While the song tells that someone is trying to "decode" a riddle or a puzzle to figure out on what their trying to know.The song is on the link below.Its on youtube so you can't see at school.Sorry.Watch it home.

Heroes
Odysseus's heroic qualities matches with other heroes that I know of because he faced many enemies like heroes mostly do.Like for example Batman faced multiple of villains like the Joker,Catwoman, and the penguin.There's more but I don't want to list them all because you'll miss my point.Also Batman doesn't have powers and so does Odysseus.They use their intelligence to get out of situations that seems impossible to survive.He also some help from his men.So he's heroic but doesn't have any super powers.
