My favorite quote would have to be when Codi was reading the letter that Hallie sent and hallie said, "What keep you going isn't some fine destination but just the road you're on. and that fact that you know how to drive." I love how she blatantly says this to Codi; it's almost like she needed someone to do this so that she could finally get it through her head. Also this quote really shows that you really don't need to know where you are going, just as long as you know what to do with your life.
I think that my favorite character would have to be Loyd; he is so down-to-earth and always knows how to treat things just right. He may have been a jock in high school, but he has changed a lot and it shows. He always knows when to say something and it always seems to be the exact thing to say, as well as he has the ability to try and feel what other people, like Codi, are thinking.
My favorite scene in this book so far is during christmas when Loyd and Codi are at the festival thing. First off, it sort of shows some of the ignorance that Codi has; she might have been sad or lonely or depressed, but it still shows quite well. The other reason that I like this scene is that Loyd has so much insight to what is going on. He is able to understand what life is like and show someone what life can truly be.

Last Thing I Read
The last thing that I read recently was Popular Science. I think that this magazine is very interesting and they always have something that is worth reading. One of the articles that I read was about using tide energy for an alternative energy. I thought that this was really cool and it showed me a new way that people in the world are creating different ways of harnessing natural energy
Favorite Book
Favorite Book
1. One of my all time favortie books would have to be Scarecrow by Matthew Reilly. This is sort of like a Tom Clancy book with thoe whole kind of army scene and weapons and other things. The main plot of this book is about a man named Shane Schofield who is a United States Marine; he is one of the top men in the marines and one of only nine men in the world who are able to disable a nuclear bomb. The book starts out as a bounty hunt; international bounty hunters go all over the world to eliminate the people. Each head, literally head, is valued at 18.6 million dollars. The bounty hunt is run by an organization called the majestic 12, who are all business tycoons.
They put these men on the list because they are all able to try and stop the plot that majestic 12 wants to start; start a nuclear war and gain money. Shane Schofield is really the only man who can stop it and is being hunted for 3 days while traveling around the world.
