The Book I Had to Read For Summer When I Didn't Want To Read

Beast keeper

Blog #1

  I am currently reading Beastkeeper which is written by Cat Hellisen. This would mostly be about the main character Sarah. Sarah tried not to talk to any kid in school. Or try to stand out. She never thought of making friends because she knew her family would move to a warmer area, when her parents start to take it out and labeling them. But all that changed after Sarah's parents left her and her father.  She felt as if it was her fault her mother left. She always listen to your parents before mother left, but now she's walking through the area her parents told her not to walk through and talk to strangers.

Here is some evidence about what I told you about Sarah. On page 9 it says "Sarah never went out of her way to make friends anymore, or stand out in her classes." This proves that Sarah didn't even try to make friends or be the center of attention.  On page 9 the author says "It's was one of the things she told herself every time the plastic storage containers came out of the garage." This tells us that she already knows when her and her family are leaving. In the text it says " My mother left, and the night she left, she was talking about how she couldn't deal with it. With me." This proves that Sarah feels it's her fault her mother left. The author wrote "Her parents had told her she must never walk that way as people could be hiding in the bushes just looking for a girl like her to steal, and the warning had made her all the more determined to take that path. Especially now. " This  shows that Sarah didn't go to that not – a – forest until her mother left. I'm page 16 it says "Or maybe it's just some stupid high school kid,' She said, Sarah wasn't far from high school herself, but she didn't quite trust the ones who had moved on. The battle lines were firmly drawn, as far as she was concerned. The boy frowned. 'I don't go to school,' He said. 'I'm Alan. Who are you then?" This shows that everything changed when her mother left.

 This blog will be about the conflict that Sarah is facing. So the first problem that Sarah is facing is that both her parents left her. The next problem is that she doesn't know what the curse on her family is about. These problems show that Sarah is facing are with other people she knows. She then finds out that her grandparents have the curse and it goes from generation to generation. The problem of her parents leaving her she thought it was her fault. Another problem she faces is that Alan is the enemy due to the curse.


 Here is some evidence of all the problems that Sarah is having. I'm page 33 it says "My mother left and now her father was saying the same thing with different words." This shows that Sarah thinks it's her fault her parents left. In page 97 it says "What happened to my grandfather – now that my mother is gone is it happening to my dad?' 'Undoubtful.' Said the raven 'He will begin to change, faster and faster, until all his human side leaves him." This proves that the car is continue. In the text said "Oh. I suppose that makes us more than a maze." This tells us to Alan and Sarah are enemies due to the curse.

Blog #3

 This last blog will be all about the theme of the book. But I believe the theme of the book is 'if you want to stop and pick something don't stop trying' I believe this is the theme because of what happens in the book. Inpage 101 it says "I'll find them. I'll fix it."This proves th at the theme is to keep on trying. I can connect to this because I always keep on trying life.
