These minor bumps in Harry’s journey strengthen him emotionally and physically, readying him to defeat the traitor at the end of his succession of tests. Unexpectedly, the betrayal comes from the quivering Professor Quirrell who voluntarily gives up his body to the Dark Lord. Harry sees himself in the mirror and realizes he is magically in possession of the Sorcerer’s Stone. Shortly

The two books that I choose is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer and Trash. The Adventure of Tom Sawyer was an adventurous book. It also had a crime scene. The Adventure Of Tom Sawyer was an Adventurous book, because Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn went to a graveyards to cure warts and they also went to a haunted house. Each time they went to the graveyard and haunted house, they saw the murderer. They both were scared because they told about the murderer in the court. In Trash, it was an adventurous book and also had a crime scene. Trash is an adventurous book, because they were three trash boys that found a bag that they police had. They had to run away from the police and they met many new people on the way and learnt about Jose Angelico. The crime scene was when Raphael, one of the Trash boys, was in jail because the police found out he had the bag and he won’t surrender it. Both of these book are fiction. Both of the book, really got my attention. I really loved the book so much. I read it five times.
My favorite book currently is ‘The Great Gatsby’ by F. Scott. Fitzgerald. Even though this was a very complicated and difficult novel to read, I thought the way Fitzgerald wrote this novel was one like no other. The complicated relationship between Jay and Daisy is so intriguing to understand and grasp as a reader. Also the 1920’s was one of the most epic times in history, and since this book was based on the time of the “Roaring 20’s” it was fascinating to get a look inside the lives of the rich and the poor. His use of unique diction and all different types of syntaxes is what I believe keeps readers loving his novels. Most literature novels are hard to create a well understanding of, or keep interest in, although I think the plot line of

The Odyssey interests me the most out of all the books that we have read because it talks a lot about the greek gods and all the different monsters and all the different creatures and Odysseus weaknesses. One reason the Odyssey interests me is because it talks about the greek gods.I

The purpose of Octavio Paz’s collection of prose essays entitled The Labyrinth of Solitude: Life and Thought in Mexico, is to find an identity for the Mexican people so they will no longer be wondering who they are. Paz tries to answer the recurring question, “who are we?” that still hunts Mexicans today. On the search for the answer, Octavio Paz has found various themes that I strongly agree with. The two themes that I strongly agree with Paz is what he considers the wear of a Mexican mask, and been like a Pachuco.
Their engagement of the Chamber was sparked as Harry hears a snake voice throughout the castle, and the events of students becoming petrified. Harry and Ron both understood the potential danger that is brought when the Chamber is opened, which leads to them jeopardizing their lives to stop it. One example is them risking their lives to visit Aragog to find out more information on the chamber of secrets. As they enter the spiders nest they are presented with large man eating spiders. Luckily they were able to receive information and escape before they were eaten. Another example is the decision they make to embark the dangerous journey into the Chamber to save Ginny. They make the choice when they encounter the entrance of the chamber. Harry remarks, “I’m going down there,” and following his comment Ron chimes, “Me too.” (Rowling 301) They both make the decision to enter the chamber to save Ginny and the fate of Hogwarts. The use of the diary has lead to a tremendous danger to the characters in the
