The Girl Who Could Fly Chapters 13/14 #11

If I could give advice to a character in the book it would have to be to Piper. The advice that I would give her would be, Conrad is really smart, listen to him!! Conrad just recently revealed his true feelings about her, the good ones. He also shared his knowledge about the institute, the not so good ones. It turns out that all this time Conrad was actually protecting Piper, instead of sounding rude and mean. This is an example of the advice I would give to Piper, Conrad is really smart, listen to him!! Conrad is very logical and definitely can be depended on to come up with a plan that will save all of them from the fatal institute.

BOOM octogon. This is what pops into my head when I think of this book. Why do I think of an octogon ? First start very top (of the octogon ) and go down. At first it's just a plain line then....BOOM it stops. Then we go right and........BOOM it stops again and so on and so forth. This shape reminds me of this book because the story goes on and on. Then all-of-a-sudden.....BOOM, the story changes direction. In other words It's very unpredictable. Sometimes I try to predict whats going to happen, but only on rare occations it ends up correctly. I know that at the end, the endless turning will stop once and for all, good or not so good.

One of the "BOOM" parts of the story is when Dr. Hellion comes to pick Piper up and Piper actually leaves.  Another is when Bella all-of-a-sudden graduates and seems brain washed.  And finally when Piper finds the true feelings of Dr. Hellion, not the good ones. She finds out that Dr. Hellion is a beautiful, but heartless woman. I knew she was to good to be true.

In today's reading Piper stands up to Conrad, the "Big Shot". In some ways I think this was very stupid because Conrad is a genius and he can do really horrible things to Piper, which the book really indicates. In addition Piper flew and got into serious trouble with Dr. Hellion and almost got expelled from the institute. If I knew that I would get into that much trouble, I wouldn't have done it.

But besides from the bad situations, there are also some good benefits. Since Piper is the new girl she doesn't understand what Conrad can do to her. Therefore she stood up to him and proved that he isn't all that important. I think it was about time for Conrad to have a taste of his own medicine.

The Girl Who Could Fly Chapters 7/8 #5

My favorite character in this book is Piper McCloud. Not only do I like her because she is the main character, but because she is kind and caring. If I were her age I would definentaly be her friend, even if she is able to fly.

Dr. Hellion is my least favorite character. I don't like her because she sounds sly and fake. I don't get why Piper likes her so much. If she aked me to go to her institute, and leave my family, I wouldn't agree. Dr. Hellion may seem nice at first, but I have a feeling that she is a mean person on the inside.

The Girl Who Could Fly Chapters 5/6 #15

The setting of this book, at this point, is an institute, underground, in the middle of nowhere. The book describes the institute as high tech, amazing, protective, luxurious and unreal. I know that if I were there I wouldn't believe that it was actually happening. I would be soooo speachless. All I could probably say would be "WOW, WOW, WOW!".

I think that the author chose this setting because she wanted it to seem sly, mysterious, and definitely unreal. I have a feeling that Piper is going to be so absorbed in the institute's amazing activities that she will forget about her caring and beloved parents, and never go back to her boring life on the farm.

The Girl Who Could Fly Chapters 3/4 #6

My favorite line in today's reading was:

Dr. Hellion's breath dropped,"Dear G-d, she realy can fly."

This was my favorite line because before Dr. Hellion sounded so profetional and knowing and then, after, she sounded cluless. I also liked it because it was well written and I could easilly picture it in my head. I would also like to add that I think that Dr. Hellon is going to trick Piper into doing something terribly wrong.

The Girl Who Could Fly Chapters 1/2 #1

Piper, the main character in my story, reminds me of the caracter Matilda. She reminds me of Matilda, because Matilda's parents don't take her out of the house until she is older, like Piper's parents. I have a feeling that her parents don't care about her much as mine do. But unlike Matilda, Piper lives on a farm in the middle of nowhere. I am sooooooo glad that I'm not Piper McCloud.
