1/31/11 Deep Down Popular By: Pheobe Stone Pages – 1- 9 I am reading the book called Deep Down Popular. This book is by Phoebe Stone. So far from what I have read it is about a girl named Jessie Lou who has a major crush on one of the most popular guys in school. Over the summer he had injured his leg and now has to be helped. The teacher has chosen Jessie Lou because she lives right by him. Conrad was very popular because he was a soccer star in his town. So now it is up to Jessie Lou to take him home and carry his books so she is very much nervous because she doesn’t even exist in her grade and he is the most important thing in his grade. Jessie Lou is in the fifth grade from what I have read she really doesn’t want to take Conrad Parker. She is way too embarrassed because when she was in the second grade she would jump out of the bushes and give Conrad a kiss on the cheek. She also still has a major crush on him. In school Jessie Lou is learning bout Lewis and Clark and their expedition. The main C haracter  is Jessie Lou is not very popular and sits alone at the lunch table and is pretty much a tomboy. She’s not into any girly things. She likes outdoors and to play in the bushes. Jessie Lou is not very popular and sits alone at the lunch table. She is not into magazines and makeup. She not invited to any parties and surprisingly is happy she doesn’t get invited to parties. She rather is herself than pretend to be girly girl who’s into dressing up, having tea parties or even wearing fairy wings that are absolutely dumb to her. So far I like this book. It’s interesting and fun to read. It shows how different people are. It also shows that even though you are different you are not weird. I think it interesting to read because it has a lot of detail to the main characters feelings. It also shows certain expressions the other characters make. In all it is a very interesting and descriptive book. Since Zoey has now settled in she is very comfortable and found a group. She is starting to feel normal again and not so uncomfortable but people still question her mark. Even though people are questioning her mark she has good and very supportive friends. They are also not misguiding her mostly keeping her on track. During one of her school classes she runs into Aphrodities ex. She realizes that he is the guy that she saw in the hall when she really wasnt suppose to be there and see what she saw. She saw Aphrodite through herself all over Erik when he wanted nothing to do with her anymore. Even though she saw what she saw and knew he was Aphrodite ex.she still thought he was very attractive but she would really have alot of problems with Aphrodite. Her new friends that she has made also warned her. I told her to really not start things with Aphrodite. They also let's her know that Aphrodite hates competion. The guy that Zoey has crush on is named Erik. Erik is very into theater and poetry. She mainly like because he was handsome but as soon as he walked into the room they locked eyes. They also locked eyes while he was reading a monologue.

Zoey has becam an amazing person. She seems down earth and is normL teenager. She has grown and has excepted her gift and is living with it. I believe she is happy with her new life. She has also proven to be a good friend. She also cares about people that care about her. //Keyanni, nice entry! I'd like to see more thought put into your opinion paragraph. -Miss Bond //

Jessie Lou is not too happy because she still has a humungous crush on him. Her mother has been working many extra hours because her boss broke his right hand and can’t work the cash register. Jessie doesn’t have any friends so, she is kind of all alone when comes to talking about her problems. She pretty much feels alone and depends on her grandfather to talk to. In school Jessie is still learning about Lewis and Clark. Jessie Lou also believes that people in Virginia where she lives have very strange names. For example: Moon n’Stars or Sunflower. Jessie Lou defiantly thinks that they’re just plain weird, but Conrad thinks that they are beautiful because he talks to them nonstop. Also Jessie feels uncomfortable around him because he was so popular and before you know it he is in a leg cast. He can’t do any of his activities that made him popular. The main activity he did was that he was star soccer player. She also feels that she is embarrassing him because he has to walk home with a tomboy who doesn’t enjoy anything a girl would like and pretty much is always alone. <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0.1in 0pt 1in;">The <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; text-indent: 0.5in;">main Character is Conrad Parker in this chapter. He is very popular and everyone knows who he is. He is a star athlete and last year he had an injury to his leg. It has brought down his popularity level has gone down because of his injury.

 * I have started a new book. It is a book called MARKED. It is a vampire series by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast. So far in this book the main character Zoey has been in some trouble. A vampire tracker has gotten to her and it is making her very weak. The way it makes her weak is that she has a very bad headache. Her best friend K was there when it all happened she is very sad and worried about Zoey. She is very emotional and cares very much about Zoey. K and Zoey have been best friends since they were in the third grade. They are very close and they are almost like sisters. K doesn’t want Zoey to turn into a vampire tracker or to be one of them. K was very emotional during this situation a lot more emotional than Zoey. **


 * The main character is Zoey. She seems nice, but I think she needs to be more ware of her surroundings. I think that because if she d payed attention to her surroundings she would have known that someone was coming to towards her. Then she may have not been marked. I think she is caring. I think that she is caring because to have a friend since elementary school. Also to have a friend that cares about her so much shows that she cares. **


 * So far, I like this book. It is different from other books I have read. The book is very interesting. At first I didn’t like it, but when I keep reading it became very fun and a nice book to read. It is also is easy to understand because when my I got hurt my best friend was crying her heart and caring so much about me like K. I am looking forward to reading more of this book. **

** Keyanni McGill ** ** Marked By: P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast ** ** 2/18/2011 ** ** 11-25 **  ** As Zoeys day is coming to an end she finally sees her boyfriend before she goes home. He is a little drunk because he has won a big football game. When he sees that she has been marked he freaks out and really loses his mind. Also while she is frightening him her mark burns. When your mark burns it means that Zoeys has received powers. Heath is her boyfriend he is a football player. While they were talking because he feel his other teammates pulled him into a car and told Zoeys she was a freak and to stay away from Heath. Zoeys has arrived home she tells her mother but she kind of thinks it’s all her fault. Her and her moms also get into a fight because Zoey thinks that her mom doesn’t pay enough attention to her kids and is too worried about pleasing her husband John. When john comes home he will see what he can do for Zoey. Zoey does not like him and thinks he is not the best as her mom thinks. He blames her attitude for what happened to Zoey and tells her he knew this was going to happen to her someday. When she tried to explain to him that it wasn’t her fault but he didn’t listen and told her he didn’t need to be told anything from a teenager. **

** My main character is Zoey. I have seen two sides of her. One side her is being nice and understanding than the other side is when she is stressed and angry. When she is angry nothing will make her feel any better. She has been being more aware of her surroundings. She is also very sensitive. For example: she just wanted to cry when it took her mother awhile to look at her when she wanted to talk to her. Also she was sensitive because her mother was way too caught up in her personal life and didn’t even know anything that was going on with her children (she felt abandoned). **

** I think this book it very interesting. I am really enjoy the book and a really enjoy reading this book. I always want to read more of the book. It is very descriptive and very fun to read. I understand the book ** and ** what it is about so far. **

 * As I keep reading the book a lot has happened. Zoey is still mad about how her mother always takes Zoeys stepdads side. Also how she calls him for every little think when Zoey just wants to talk to her mom and her step loser. Zoey mark s still there so her parents made a call to the people of Faith Prayer Tree. Zoey didn’t want to deal with those people. They would think of her as a problem. They would also think that her mark was Cyclops zit. So since she didn’t want to deal with them she escaped out of her quietly so that no one could hear her and the noisy neighbors won’t tell other people or her parents. The place she went to was her grandmother’s house. Her grandmother was the only one who understood and made her feel comfortable. She always told her what she wanted to hear. Her step loser John didn’t like Zoey grandmother. He called her a witch and said she should go to hell. That was one of the main reasons why Zoey disliked John so much. **


 * ` Zoey is a nice girl but has a lot going on. She doesn’t have aloft support in this situation and the only person that can help her is her grandmother. Zoey feels that that her grandmother is the only one there for her. Her grandmother listens and also tells her what she wants to hear. Also a lot nicer towards Zoey than her own mom. **

**I think this book it very interesting. I am really enjoy the book and a really enjoy reading this book. I always want to read more of the book. It is very descriptive and very fun to read. I understand the book and what it is about so far.** **Keyanni** ** 33-115 ** ** 3/3/11 **  ** I have read a lot more in the book and it is becoming more and more interesting. Zoey has settled in at The House of Night since her grandmother took her there. She has a mentor there that is taken very good care of her, her name is Neferet. She has been helping Zoey while she has been at the House of Night. Zoey got her roommate who is really down to earth and seems to be very sweet. Her name is Stevie Rae. Stevie Rae let Zoey into her group of friends which are also very nice to her. Zoey is also getting use to having to go to school at night not early in the morning. Zoey has also met Aphrodite who not everyone seems to like. She is the leader of a ritual group called the Dark Daughters. Zoey doesn’t like Aphrodite so much because she is very bossy and thinks that she is so amazing and thinks that the world wouldn’t go on without her, but she has to deal with her because her mentor Neferet said she should go to the Dark daughter’s ritual. Zoey is enjoying her new school but everyone keeps talking about her. The reason they are talking about her is because she has a completely colored in mark which only happens when you are an adult vampire. Aphrodite has also shown a little jealousy towards Zoey because Zoey could possibly be more powerful than her. **

** Zoey has become more herself and less sad about her mark. She has learned to accept it and live with it even though it can be uncomfortable at times when everyone is staring at you because you are very different from everyone else. She is also more sociable and seems like a really nice girl. She’s not mean to anyone even if she doesn’t like. Most of all she doesn’t judge a book by its cover. What I mean by that is that when her and Stevie Rae have different styles she still looked to see her personality and she realized she was a really nice girl who is down to earth and really caring. **

** The book keeps getting more and more interesting every time read. It is never confusing and always stays on one topic. It is very descriptive and a very good book.I am really enjoyng the book **
