Animal Dreams

My favorite quote from the book so far would have to be when Codi is talking about her dream of losing her eye sight and she realizes something. This is what she said : "And then while we all still waited i understood that the terror of my recurring dream was not about losing just vision, but the whole of myself, whatever that was. What you lose in blindness is the space around you, the place where you are, and without that you might not exist. You could be nowhere at all." I like this quote because it is so true and losing your eye sight is like losing everything around you and it is just a nice comparison to vision.
My favorite character so far is Loyd. I like him so much because he is nice to Codi when she is mean to him and he is patient. He also is charming by the way he talks to Codi and is nice with his family. He might get annoying to some people because he is too perfect, but i like that about him, that he seems like a "bad boy" but is really compassionate on the inside.
My favorite scene so far from the book is when Hallie writes the letter to Codi telling her that she complains too much and she is dreaming what she wants to do instead of living it. And she tells her that there are other problems that are actually real like the eight year old boy dying. That was a real problem and Codi is going on and on about how her life sucks when actually if she really wanted to she could turn things around. Also this part was a turning point for Codi because it made her realize that she can belong anywhere as long as she wants to and that she can live her dreams.

Something I Read Recently

I just read my chemistry book because i had homework on density, molecules and atoms. My thoughts on the reading was interesting and boring at the same time. When you are forced to read something it makes it even worse than it already was. I have no idea if you know what i mean but that's how it is for me.

My Favorite Book


I like a lot of books because i enjoy reading. If i had to choose one i would choose Eclipse from the series Twilight. Stephenie Meyer is a great author because when she writes she describes the scene so well that it is almost like you are actually there. These books are about vampires and when a girl falls in love with one. Even if you do not like stories about mysical creatures or vampires or anything like that you should still check it out because it is an amazing book and paints the picture in your head. For more information on the book go to this link .
