Book Ladder
Easiest: The Warrior Heir by Cinda Williams Chima
|
This book is the easiest book I read. This book has 448 pages but the words are somewhat big. I finished this book fairly fast because it was a subject I like and there was nothing too challenging. I also knew that this would be a good book because I had already read books from that author.
|
The Wizard Heir by Cinda Williams Chima
|
This was the book after the Warrior Heir. This book was very similar to it but it was slightly more advanced. This book had 480 pages but the words were somewhat small. I finished this book fairly fast because it was a subject I like and I knew it would be good because it was the sequel to a book I liked.
|
The Dragon Heir by Cinda Williams Chima
|
This book was the book after The Wizard Heir. This book had 499 pages and it was slightly harder to read than the previous book in the series. I finished this book fairly fast because it was a subject I like and in my opinion it was better than the previous book.
|
If These Walls Could Talk by Wayne Larrivee and Rob Rieschel
|
This book was harder than the previous book. This book is only 240 pages but the letters are somewhat small. I finished this somewhat slow because it was a subject that I do not read very often and does not get my too hooked to the book. Also, this was an author I didn't know.

Hardest: The Martian by Andy Weir
|
This book was very good but it was the hardest book I read. This book has 370 pages and the letters were somewhat small. This was a subject that I like but I finished this book somewhat slow because the content was somewhat difficult. Also, this was an author that I did not know.

Reflection
I have read six books this trimester. My reading this year so far is less than last year. I feel like of have not had nearly as much time to read this year compared to last year. I have had more homework and and sports which limits my time to read. Also, I have had less time to read in school. I have sports after school so I don't usually get home until 6. Then I have to do my homework and eat dinner. This leaves little extra time to read. I also used to read at least an hour in school but now I can't read in school.
This year I have challenged myself by reading harder books like The Martian or If These Walls Could Talk.These are difficult because one is not a subject I read often and one has difficult content.
Some of my strengths as a reader is comprehending the books and reading fast. Some of my weaknesses are finding books I want to read and reading non-fiction.
This trimester I met both of my goals which were read a book with a different POV than me and read a book checked out by a local library. I met my first goal by reading The Dragon Heir. The POV of this book was a female. Fridays were I read for an hour.
