My book, Crown of Midnight is a very interesting book. It is the sequel to Throne of Glass. Celaena has become the King's Champion. I predict that she is going to have to do some pretty horrible things considering she is the King's Champion. Being the King's champion means she has to kill whoever the king wants to be killed. One of my first questions that came to mind was the way Caleana was acting. In the first book she acted like a so called "Tough person," but on the inside she was just like everyone else; But in the second book, she is acting really strange, she seems to just kill, and sort of like it. I'm thinking that she is just acting like that in front of the King so that there wont be any questions on if she did the job. I will have to read more to find out. A text to world connection that I made, within the story, the King uses the King's Champion, and armies to kill people and get land. Although I dont think that kings and presidents now and day have assassins, they do have armies to kill and get land. My text to text connection is that in The Hunger Games Katniss gets picked and has to fight for her freedom. In Crown of Midnight, Ceaena has to do the King's dirty work to get her freedom.

I like how you made the observation about how weird she is acting, just to show she did the job. I also like the connection to how kings would have people killed with their armies.

ReplyDeleteThis book sound intresting because she is acting all tough but is that she was like everybody else and used that to cover her self up.
ReplyDeleteI like how you compared the book to hunger games and you did a great job on the summary you described it without giving to much away.
