                                          Book cover for Midsummer Nights Dream
The book cover that I believe best represents a Midsummer Nights Dream the best would be the last book cover or number 4. I think that this book cover is the best one because so far in the book the setting has taken place mostly in the woods and I think that it really fits with the cover. Another example of why I think that this book cover is the best representation of a midsummers night dream book is that when you read the book, in almost every act there is someone sleeping or taking a nap and it would be something cool to actually think about once you have read the book. This book cover also has little fairies everywhere if you look closely and the fairies are another big part in the book and they should be included on the cover! I think what would make this book cover better would be having characters like a donkey for bottom or some representation of the play on the cover, since the play that they are putting on is a big part in the book and it would have been a good thing to put on the cover. This is one of those book covers that you won't really get until you've read it and I think that that's cool! I also really like all of the detail that is in the forest and it's defiantly the most detailed. We found out that the book is set in ancient Egypt because they were talking about gods and for me the person on the very front looks like how they showed their characters when showing stories in that time.

blog # 1- Part 2

     My book is called The Vampire Diaries, and its about a girl whos name is Elena. Elena is one of those girls in school who is so popular, but she is a very sweet girl. Her parents died when she was younger and now she lives with her aunt and little sister. She just broke up with her old boyfriend Matt to get to know the new guy Stefan, who is kinda of the more mysterious guy, who is secretly trying to resist his desire for Elena. Stefan is a vampire, and Elena just found out about this. Ever since she found out about Stefan, there has been so many murders and bad things happening and everyone has a sneaking suspition that its Stefan, even Elena's best friends Bonnie and Meredith.everyone in the town is so confused why this is all happening and wants to make it stop. Elena knows who it is, its Stefans cruel, dangerous brother Damon who is also a vampire. Stefan and his brother have never gotten along, especially now because Damon likes Elena and he will do everything to destroy Stefan.

     The main character in my book The Vampire Diaries is Elena. Elena is a very sweet person, as in shes one of those girls that you could run to for anything. She is also a very stubborn girl, so if you tell her to do somthing like stay there, she'll probably not, shes usually always helping people, even if they are in dangerous situations. She is also a very strong character, she is not scraed of Stefan because he is a vampire, but she helps him when he is in dangerous situations even if it means putting herself in a danger. In the book Elena has blonde hair whch is weird because in the tv show she has brown hair and also on the cover of the book she has brown hair. This is what i think Elena would  look like, if i didn't watch the tv show.


    At the moment my book is around October/November because they just had a halloween party. A major event that has happened so far is at the halloween party, one of the schools teachers was killed, the people of the town still have to figure out who did it and almost everyone is pointing fingers at Stefan. It was actually cool because when they first stared talking about halloween, it was halloween here and i thought that it was going to be Christmas when it was Christmas here, but they talked a lot more about halloween, so the book goes by fairly slowly.

The book that i am reading now is called TheVampire Diaries. It a new series on the CW. I really like the show and watch it every thursday, so i decided it would be cool to read the book. Of course the book is pretty different, but there are still a lot of the same characters, which is good so can picture them while reading. I've always liked english and Im really excited to see what this semesters english class has to bring!

Blog #5- Mid Summers Night’s Dream connections

                The book that I am currently reading is called The Vampire Diaries. It is quite different from the Mid Summers Night’s Dream book because my book is about vampires. I can find two connections between my book and Mid Summers Night’s Dream. The first one is that Hermia loves Lysander who loves her back just like in my book the main character Elena loves Stefan who loves her back. Demetrius loves Hermia but Hermia does not like Demetrius back, just like in my book Damon likes Elena but Elena does not like Damon back. Just like Lysander, Stefan is more of the nice guy who writes in a diary and really cares about Elena. Just like Demetrius, Damon is defiantly the bad boy. Damon is much worse than Demetrius is, so far, but it is kind of the same thing. The second connection I am making between my book and Mid Summers Night’s Dream is the theme of forbidden love. The main character Elena is in love with Stefan who is a vampire. Now not everybody knows quite yet about this but I am sure that when they do nobody will be very happy. Especially because some people know that Stefan is a vampire and almost everyone is blaming him for a murder that just recently happened. Stefan did not commit this crime, Elena and Stefan strongly believe that it was Damon who did it, but nobody, apart from Stefan and Elena, knows about Damon quite yet.  I’m sure everyone will want Elena, who is the sweet and popular girl of the town, far away from both of the vampire boys and they will forbid her from seeing them. Elena is the type of girl like Hermia who would go behind people of authority’s back to go to see Stefan. A smaller connection is, that I find that Elena and Helena sound alike and Damon and Demetrius sound alike.
