BOOK 2

In the book Blackwater by Eue Bunting the town is confflicted by the fact that Otis and Pauline die in the Blackwater river. Brodie the main cherecter is the cause of the're death but not tottally responsible for it but one lie changes the storie and leads them into more trouble. I liked this book because it is exciting and really fun to read it. I liked when the author descrives the scene when Brodie and Hannah are at the river and they talk about what happend. The author did a good job of descriveing the emotions of Hannah. Overall the book was pretty good and i got hooked on as i read it. The conflict tied really good into the story and it seemed liked it could have bein a real life situation. what i have a question on is, if Bodies dad was a preacher, why didnt he know better than to go and get gealous and go up to Pauline and lie about what happend? He should of just told the truth an dsave himself alot of guilt. The book didnt have any religous themes even though his dad is really religous.

Blackwater

The old Blackwater runs real fierce out there. Dad says its mad because we tame it.

Brodie is the main charecter and he is saying this to his cousin Alex. brodie is going to teach him how to swim and he tells him this because the river is violently splashing againts the rocks. This sort of foreshadows that someone is going to get hurt or drown in the Blackwater river. This quote is significant because it explains how the water is using personification, that the water is a living thing and it has grudges.

Brians Hunt {charecter}

Brian is character in Brian’s Hunt. He is a male sixteen year old that lives in the wilderness and hunt stuff. So far I don’t know much about his past and family but he has been in the “wild” since he was fourteen because I read that from the story. He has been having nightmares about him being in a plane with no other passengers and the pilot dies, he wakes up when the plane crashes down into trees and on a  lake a he drowns. Brian is a smart teen that isn’t afraid and knows a lot about Animals and can recognize them by sound. Brian is a skilled archery hunter and he knows a lot about arrow heads and rivers and  the landscape around him. This is how Brian is in Brian’s Hunt.
