To Kill a Mockingbird by: Harper Lee Chp 7-8
After a new school year has begun Jem and scout found a pair of pants that were hanging over a fence and after awhile no one took them so they took them for there self, but in the meantime they found another present hidden in a knothole and they leave it to see if anyone claims it and they don’t so they take it for there own. Scout does not like second grade like she did first grade and Jem tells her that it will get better as the time goes on. Later in the fall a present shows up again and its in a knothole again and it’s a carved soap that resembles scout and jem. The figures are followed in turn by chewing gum, spelling bee medal and an old pocket watch. The next day they go back to the knothole and its filled with cement.
To Kill a Mockingbird by: Harper Lee Chp 4-6
The chapters are about Jem and scouts childhood memories. Dill and Boo Radley are also show up in this chapter and they play a game called “boo Radley game” and they try to show boo a message. Boo’s character is transformed from a monster to a human being. They start with putting presents in Radleys tree and scout does not realize who was putting them there. Miss Maudie shows up in this chapter and she knows that boo is no demon but boo has suffered from being in a very religious family.
To Kill a Mockingbird by: Harper Lee Chp 1-3
A successful lawyer makes living in Maycomb. A cook named Calpurina helps and keep the house in good condition. I started reading this book and I'm already bored of it, nothing really exciting has happened hopefully if I keep reading something will happen. Walter's Family is the poor, and Atticus is the wealthy family. Also in chapter 2 it was Scout's first day of school, it shows that he can't read well and he is also not that educated

My Bloody Life Chapt. 8-10
Reymundo's mom and Pedro chose to move back to Puerto Rico because Pedro had a better paying job over their. However Reymundo did not want to leave because of Jenny the girl he is seeing now, he told her he would do anything to come back home to Chicago. So just a few weeks living in Puerto Rico, he received child abuse so Reymundo's mom thought it'd be best if he moves back to Chicago because she didn't want to deal with it in Puerto Rico. So he arrived to Chicago to stay with his older step brother Hector, but right away Reymundo couldn't wait to surprise Jenny and let her know he is back. I predict that Reymundo is going to get into a lot more trouble in the cold streets of Chicago because he doesn't have his mom there.

My Bloody Life Chpt. 6-7
So far in the book Reymundo the main character, really like this girl named Jenny. He then started talking to her in the school he went to, and soon led to walking her home from school. He then met Jenny's brother who is part of the Latin Kings. Jenny's brother already thinks he is part of a different gang but Reymundo denies it because all he does is hang out with them. So then Jenny's brother makes Reymundo do a mission to prove he is no "punk" when he is going out with his sister. I predict in the future that Reymundo is soon going to join the Latin Kings.
