Nine of us came here. We look like you. We talk like you. We live among you. But we are not you. We can do things you dream of doing. We have powers you dream of having. We are stronger and faster than anything you have ever seen. We are the superheroes you worship in movies and comic books—but we are real.
Our plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight them. But they found us and started hunting us first. Now all of us are running. Spending our lives in shadows, in places where no one would look, blending in. we have lived among you without you knowing.
But they know.
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They killed them all.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They killed them all.
I am Number Four.
I am next.

ReplyDeleteIn this book the main characters are pretty much running form another alien race that are trying to kill them.
ReplyDeleteAnd what do you think about what you are reading, Bryant? I would like to know your opinion because I have not read this book yet, nor have I seen the movie.
DeleteI like it because I kind of like sci-fi books that have aliens and the main characters are aliens.
ReplyDeleteI like how there language is like french on are plant. And also why did the mogadoriansians go and conquer there home planet.
ReplyDeleteAlex, I'm not sure what you mean
DeleteLike I don't know where you got the french from.
DeleteI like to read about like, really high-tech stuff and supernatural beings like aliens.
ReplyDeleteI like how the main character can levitate and shot lights out of his hands.
ReplyDeleteAlex,
DeleteI would like you to put more thought into your blogs. Why did you like when he could levitate? What was your main character's name? What did he use shooting lights out of his hand for? Did anything in the book remind you of your own life?

ReplyDeleteThis is your blog post for the week? I don't understand what you are saying. Also, I know you know how to capitalize the first word in a sentence. If you are reading, Bryant, I think you can do better than this.
DeleteIn my book my main character John Just learned telekinesis and broke his girlfriends camera accidentally and he beat up some people because ehe actually has super-strength too and superspeed and the other guy dropped a gun and it fired so John stopped the bullet from hitting him and then he let go of it and it dropped to the floor.
ReplyDeleteIn my book my main characters' enemy invited them to a party and it was a drinking party and they started a fire and the main character is fire and heat resistent and Sarah and mark's dogs got stuck in the fire so John went in after them and saved their lives.
ReplyDeleteYour entries are getting better, Bryant! Now when you are summarizing I want to find out what you think about what is going on. Summarizing is okay, your thoughts are much better!
Deleteparts that are different about the movie and the book is when their at the school they don't go through a secret passage way but in the movie but they do in the book.
ReplyDeleteAlex, you didn't put a whole lot of thought into your blog. First of all, you need to use capital letters at the beginning of the sentence and end punctuation. You could've evaluated which you liked better and why. Your posts need to show me that you read and understand the book.
DeleteYes it has been turned into a movie. Yes because There is a lot of action. When he is at a halloween party and is trying to find Sarah and Emily.
ReplyDeleteBrenden, I undertand you are answering specific questions that I emailed you, but I would like you to rewrite the question into your answer so I know which questions you are saying yes to. Your post should show me that you read and understand the book, and I can't judge that based on this post.
DeleteI just finished my book and John and Gabby (who is number six) fought and won but in the end John had to move out of town away from his girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteThis is a huge book, Bryant. This is all you have to say? What do you think about what happened?
DeleteI finished the book!One of my favorite parts was when Bernie Kosar turns into a dragon like creature and attacks a giant twice his size. The giant gets ahold of his dogs neck. Then John takes the knife from his back and stabs the giant in the eye and the giant died. Then he leaves Paradise and his girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteI just started I am Number Four. I think that a strength is that he is not the first number, or the last number. If he was number 9, it would be boring because he wouldn't have to worry about being killed. Another strength is that he doesn't know what his legacies are. His legacies are his powers. I think the last strength is that he is just a teenager and some times wants to live a normal life. A weakness is that he knows that his dad died. He should have learned about that at the end. Another weakness is that he knows about the ship. He should have learned about that another way instead of the visions. And the last weakness is that he hasn't fought Mark yet. I think that would make the book a lot exciting. But I think he is going to fight Mark at the Haunted Trail. I can't wait to see how this book ends.
ReplyDeleteI think a good title would be "The Nine from Lorien" because right away it tells you what the book is about. out of that sentence, you can get how many there are and where they are from. I picked this title because in the book they don't talk about Lorien that much. They also don't talk about the other people from Lorien that much. I am just past the part where Bernie Kosar turns his self into a giant dragon with no wings and attacks the beast. And then the beast gets ahold of Bernie Kosar's neck and John kills the beast with a dagger. And I just read the part where Henri dies by one of the mogadorians soldiers. I really like this book and I am defiantly going to read the second book.
ReplyDeleteHenri died on the football field and john tells him that he will get his dead body back to lorien no matter what it takes. His dog, the thing that can switch to different things and has been following John for his whole life on earth, lived after being attacked by the big beast. Sarah and number 6 survived. Sam and Mark also lived through the war at the school. The school was completly destroyed and so was a lot of the forest leading to John's old house. Now John, Sarah, Six, Mark, Sam and the dog thing are at a hotel 30 miles away from paridise, the town that they used to live in. It is going to be a bad war, and only just started. Da Da Da Daaaaaa!!!!
