#8 Most Dangerous Game
Zaroff was a weird man. He lost his fun of hunting but that was all that he knew so he moved on to people which he thought were fun to hunt. I don't really think that it is all that gruesome. He was just looking for fun and happen to think hunting people was fun. I think he kind of crossed the line.
#7 The Lunch Date
I think she brought home the knowledge of changing her thoughts about other people. She was in a time where white people didn't like black people and she found out that black people are just like white. Some are even more genorous like in the movie he shared his salad with him even though it was his. So he triumphs or rewards was knowledge.

Cue for Treason #21-25
I have read all of Cue for Treason and it has been a great book. I loved the ending where Peter and Kit get married and have kids. It was a overall good story but not the best book Ive read. I really liked the Virgin Mine chapter. The band of actors played for the queen which I thought was really cool. The thing i found funny was that a little boy just did one thing wrong by throwing a rock and a year and some later he went from a normal life to being chased down and ended up playing for the queen and through all that he got what he wanted in the first place. His common lands back. So in the end he got what he wanted even though it took him forever.
Cue for Treason #16-20
I am really liking this book. I keep reading page after page waiting for the next part. I think the book is getting close to the climax but it kind of got boring at the start of chapter 19 but it will get better. It must have took a lot for Peter to make it all the way home. I am surprised he made it all the way back without passing out from exhaustion. People don't recognize how much that would of taken and how many people wouldn't make it. I can't wait to read on about their journey to London in search of Sir Robert. I hope the book has a good ending.
Cue for Treason #11-15
I didn't like this part in the book wasn't all that good at this part. I found it funny how Peter gave the play away and they had to go through some much to get it back. When they found the bad poem I spent at least 30 minutes trying to find the little hint but I stopped trying and kept reading on. When they said it i went back and thought how did I miss that. Its strange they let a boy in the secret service of the queen. I hate when there are cliffhangers. I wonder if Tom is still alive or if they killed him. I also wonder if we will see more of the Yellow Gentleman or if we will find out his name. I guess I will have to keep reading to find out.

Cue for Treason #6-10
This book is getting very good. There are many more characters and I'm already getting confused. I found it funny how Kit was holding a knife to him and now they are friends. I think Kit is not who he seems to be and he is trying to exploit Peter to Sir Phillip until I found out he was a girl which really threw me off and that she was to marry Sir Phillip. This book is getting better and better as i read on. The gaps between the boring parts are getting shorter. I was surprised when they met Shakespeare. It was really cool and I hope we see much more of him and hopefully they do one of his plays. I don't really love Shakespeare but I think when the times come and we start learning Shakespeare it will probably bring up my mark because I think I am able to find the meaning and am able too pick it apart. I really liked it and can't wait to keep reading on.
Cue for Treason Chapter#1-5
So far I think the book is going to be good. My mom had read it and told me it was a good book. I'm guessing this book has been around for a long time and has been a big hit. I had no clue how theater worked back in the day and it surprised me. The story started off with action right away which I really like. After it started to slow down while he was running away which I didn't really like. It keeps having a really action filled part and then it is boring for a bit and keeps me reading for the next action filled part. I think Peter is going to turn out to be a good character later on in the book but i think there are going to be a lot of characters and I can't keep track of them most of the time. I find it very bad that a land that belongs to someone can be just taken over by some rich person all of the sudden and can just all himself SIR Phillip Morton. Good thing times have changed so people can't do that anymore. I cant wait to read and find out who the person with the knife is.
