First Review:

Eclipse

Eclipse is the third book in a series of four and Stephenie Meyer makes it just as enticing as the first two. Edward and the rest of the beautiful vampires are battling to save Bella from Victoria, an evil vampire plotting to kill Bella in revenge, all the while dealing with the werewolfs who want the vampires out of Forks. The plot has many ups and downs but centers on the final battle with Victoria, which is both alarming and bloody. The story is still a delight with the same banter of the old Bella and Edward but it changes when Edward wants something more serious from her. Bella's need to be immortal for Edward is ever changing when the date to change her into a vampire occurs. The readers will become even more engrossed in the story when this takes place. Love, passion, and death are the motifs of this novel. Meyer does a wonderful job of staying true to the series look on Bella and Edward's love but invents new motifs of passion and death. Which are both tear jerking and make the reader want more. Meyer's style is flowing and smooth with her word choice and the fact she doesn't overwhelm the reader with too much detail. Meyer's story Eclipse may be demonstrated in this quote, " The kiss frightened me. There was too much tension, too strong an edge to the way his lips crushed mine- like he was afraid we had only so much time left to us."

Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone

Harry Potter is an enticing story that provides the reader to escape into fantasy land. JK Rowling does a fantastic job of creating a movie in a reader's mind and letting them make up some of the details. Harry Potter lives with his aunt and uncle, who treats him terrible, when he is practically shoved into a new life. He found out that he is a wizard and started school at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. While at his first-year, Ron, Hermione, and Hagrid, helped him to discover his famous past with Lord Voldemort. Many ups and downs in the plot reveal Harry once again saving the magical world from Lord Voldemort. This book is a page turner in that Rowling never stops the action. The one downfall to the story is the beginning drags on more then the reader wants. I don't want to keep hearing how awful Harry's aunt and uncle are, I mean we all get it from the first chapter. The theme of this story is finding oneself and Harry has a hard time finding exactly who he is and what he wants. Rowling's style and word choice reflects greatly on young readers who flock to the series. The quote that uncovers some of the plot is, "Your mother died to save you. If there is one thing Voldemort cannot understand, it is love."

Meeting with the President

I guess one of the first things I would say is congratulations. I'd tell him about my concerns for higher taxes and how that would help the economy. I would also ask him if he's weary about the senate, congress and now the presidency being all democratic and how that will help unite America. Why is it that Democratic have jumped on change in this campaign when the senate and congress have both been dominated by Democrats for the past two years. Why hasn't anything changed their? The main idea I would like to speak with him about is the fact that his whole campaign was to reunite America and make us be proud of our country, so how is he actually going to do that? What are his exact policies? I think their is a difference between preaching for change and actually having change and I want to know his action plan. And then I would say thank you for your time.

In four years, I don't think much will change. I think the economy, energy, housing market, and the war will still be the same issues facing us today. I don't think a president can turn around all of these issues in four years. I think its more up to the people of America then the president. That's like saying one man can change everything, and I don't believe that. I think that in four years there will be a turn around in maybe the senate and congress because the new administration may to be radical for the American people to reunite. I hope that the economy will turn around and people will have more pride in their country. I think issues that face me in 4 years will be college and money. I will be focusing on my future, my job, how to pay for college, etc.


I honestly have no idea what will happen in 2035. I honestly cant predict what new issues we will face as a nation and i cant even guess! I hope I'm happily married and have kids and a good job and am comfortable and live somewhere nice!
