English Blog Post Number 5

     Hey, classmates! So throughout the year, my least favorite character has been Haymitch Abernathy from the book, The Hunger Games. Haymitch qualifies as my least favorite character because he was drunk throughout almost the entire book. He was to help Katniss and Peeta win the Hunger Games, but wasn't ever sober long enough to give them good advice when it was needed. Occasionally, Haymitch would deliver a kind word or two, but not very often. I don't think he is a very good role model, therefore, he has earned the spot of my least favorite character.
     Throughout the course of the year, my favorite character has been Chloe Saunders from the book, The Summoning. Chloe is a necromancer, which means she can see and be seen by dead people. She can also hold conversations with them. I can somewhat relate to Chloe...not that I can talk to ghosts, but sometimes it seems like I have some kind of special "ability". I'll be singing a song in my head and then I'll turn on the radio and the exact same song will be playing at the exact part I was singing. I know I sound like a freak, but I think this is how Chloe may have felt when she was seeing ghosts. Then again, Chloe's not real...
     Anyway, I need just one more poetry book until I finish the 40 book assignment. Any short poetry reccomendations would really be helpful. If I can reccomend any books, let me know. :)
