Readers Journal- Science fiction


#19                                    Readers Journal                                    1/10/12                                                                                                                                                                                                Dear Mrs. Zrihen                                                                                                                                     I just finished a book called Agartha's Castaway. This book was written by Chrissy Peebles.
                        I used many strategies before, during and after I read this book. Two strategies that I used before I read this book was to skim and scan though the book to see if there was any text features and I read the synopsis of the book. Two strategies that I used while I was reading this book was to ask questions and to make prediction about what was going to happen next in the book. Two strategies that I used after I read this book was to answer my question and have a discussion about this book with my sister.
                        The genre of this book was fiction and the subgenre is science fiction. The main characters in this book were Casey, Mike and Jack. Casey is a fun adventures person. Her motive is to save her mom and she is a round character. Mike is a high school star surfer, not so smart and all he ever thinks about is girls. His motive is to get off the island safely. He is also a round character. Jack is a person who is completely opposite of Mike. Jack is very good when it comes to science but when it comes to girls he is absolutely horrible. His motive is to get off the island. He is a round character. Some foil characters are Casey’s mom, Britannica and her other friends.           
                        I rate this a 7- 10 because it was very interesting. I recommend this book to everybody meaning teens because some of it is about love and a lot about adventure. All in all I loved this book and cant wait for the next series.
                                                                                                SINCERELY,
                                                                                                            Roxanne Fine
