     In my independent reading book Cyberia the main character Zane, in facing serious problems. Even thought me and the main character share the same name the similarity stops there. Zane lives in the future, and is wired up to a high tech room. It can monitor his blood pressure, blood sugar, heart rate and his emotions all at once. For his 15th birthday his dad got him a blue tooth that can connect him to his room. What he doesn't know is that it allows him to talk to animals. when his dog talks to him he completely freaks out, for he doesn't know what to do.

     This is where the peer pressure come in, he had just saved a bunch of animals from an evil doctor that wants to control all animals and make them our slaves. His dog Hugo doesn't like this though so he and a bunch of animals all want to free a group of racing dogs A.K.A gray hounds. He goes to only see suffering dogs that are deprived of food and water except the winners. They get generously rewarded. For the rest of the animals he hears all their crys for help. it over whelms him so he leaves and decides to never come back forever....

                            In my book "Bad Boy" by Walter Dean Myers hes facing a troubling problem with growing up because with his mom and dad fighting he feels all alone in the city of Harlem, new york. Since he has nobody to talk to he been taking all his anger out on people who upset him. So now he has got himself into so many fights  that he had to be relocated to a new disciplinary school that focus only education and wont tolerate bullying ,so with racism becoming a growing issue in new york he has to find a way to keep out of trouble and off the streets. 

 

   Along with the growing issue of racism he has a speaking disorder so when he speaks in front of a group of people or at school he is unaware of what hes saying and how hes pronouncing it. So now all of his teachers encourage him to write out everything now speak it. Since hes been reading so much Shakespeare instead of writing these essays and short stories he writes poetry and becomes a amazing poet. Since hes still a kid though every makes fun of him and thinks he not a real man.Now without his father  around hes the man of the house and need to take on all of the responsibilities that his dad had. Like feeding him and his mother and supplying money. Now with all this new found responsibility he had to step up to the plate.   

 

With all this stress he doesn't have time to think and sit down and write so he picks up the game of basketball hes good at it too. After a while he figured out he wanted to be a lawyer but everyone kept saying that he couldn't because he was black  and he had a speech imperfection.

 In my book '' dust and decay'' the main character Benny Imura's best friend Chong has run away from their camp. The reason is because he indangered all his friends by luring a rhino into their camp and almost killed every one. The worst part was that when the rhino attacked it caught some of Benny's  girlfriends face. So he felt so horrible for endangering everyone he left so he couldnt cause any more trouble.

  Since his older brother Tom brought them out there now he has taken it upon himself to go int o the forest and retrieve Chong. while Benny and nix his girlfriend are waiting for them to return lilah start arguing about how Chong would of never come along if she hadn't ignored him. Chong is deeply in love with lilah but since she doesn't care about him he wanted to prove hes strong. When there yelling it had attracted many many zoms {they are attracted by movement and sound} . they hear that one is banging on the door so the leave it till it is unamused. But the banging just attracts more and more.

     In my book Rot and Ruin the main character Benny is stuck in a horrible situation with his older brother turned into a zombie by some bounty hunters. Now that he has no place to go and he's stuck in a field with millions of zoms ( zombies ) and 4 pro bounty hunters trying to kill him. The reason the 4 bounty  hunters are after him is because the kidnaped a girl named Nix and killed her mother. now Benny got her out of their grasp and he has her. But without Tom Imura Benny's older brother it seem practically impossible to get back to town. Benny came out to save her because she was the only one who understood him. he was starting to develop feelings for her. so he had the urge to save Benny. 

    Benny wanted to save Nix to show his feeling for her and to avenge his brother's death. So he and Nix are gonna ambush their hideout and burn down game land ( a place where they take kids to fight zombies) so his rain of terror can come to an end. But the bounty hunters are some of the best in the world. They have the record of most confirmed infected kills

   I'm reading the book Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins, the main character Katniss is experiencing some tough times. After surviving the 74th Annual  Hunger Games she doesn't need to ever go back... But with the 75th Hunger Games coming up they always do something special for every 25th year. The Capital, controls all districts, says that it's required that the past winners are required to return to the Hunger Games to compete. Katniss panics and realizes that she would have to go back with Peeta, who protected her life during their time at the Hunger Games and is her friend. Katniss's mission now, is to protect Peeta at all cost. After the Hunger Games, Katniss wants Peeta to begin a uprising against the Capital.

    The reason Katniss wants to have a uprising is because the Capital won't take care of any of the Twelve districts, many people are suffering. When Katniss was in the Hunger Games arena she realizes how horrible it is to be true victims of the Capital. Katniss doesn't want anyone else to  experience brute force they impose upon the innocent public or the harsh treatment from the Capital.  They get the blunt end of it they know how it feels to be on the bottom of the blow.

   The reason Katniss wants Peeta to lead the charge against the Capital is because she believes that Peeta is a natural born leader. When they were in the Hunger Games he was able to convince the other tributes to leave Katniss alone and go after a more worthwhile opponent. Peeta convinced Katniss to break out of her nervous shell and to fight like true competitor. Peeta convinced the Peace Keeper to stop whipping Katniss's best friend Gale by reasoning with him. Making Katniss very grateful.
