Welcome to the newest part of the BCMS library - blogging!

I am going to be posting blogs about books I am reading that will be avaliable for checkout at the middle school library.  I will be reading books that are nominated for the KY Bluegrass Award in the beginning -but who knows where this will take us.  I invite you to post comments and ask me questions about the books I've posted.  Keep in mind that I will be monitoring/approving the blogs - and absolutely NO objectional or offensive information will be posted!  You can blog anonymously or you may put first names, but please do not put first and last names for security reasons.

If you would like me to post a new blog about a book you are reading so others can ask you quesitons about it - please give me the information at middle school or e-mail it to me.  I will post your information for others to read and respond to.

I am excited about the new format that we can use to communicate with each other about books and reading.  Let the blogging begin ! ! !

Read the comments from Nathan below about a series that he really likes.
Well what can I say about the Twilight series, YOU MUST READ!!!!!!!!!! If you like adventure, romance, and of course VAMPIRES you will love this book.

I must give credit to Mrs. Buerkley for sparking the interest, thanks for the book order! (She knows what I mean) But back to the point.

A young girl named Bella leaves Arizona and her mom behind and goes to Forks, Washington to live with her dad. She meets a boy named Edward Cullen.(We know what all the girls are thinking about instead of their math howework. lol!) A series of events that take place make them inseparable.
But a group of 3 dubious (that's for Mrs, Bess) vampires makes Bella run to save her mom who really isn't in any danger.

Sound like a book you'll enjoy? You will never know if you don't try it. Tune in for my next blog. Enjoy. Smiley

-Vampire King (AKA: Nathan.)
Nathan - What genre would you say these books fit into. Fantasy or Science Fiction? I appreciate the time, effort (and thought) you have given to the blog! It is great.
I absolutely loved the first book in the series, Twilight. I kept wondering, however, why did Bella's blood smell so different to Edward. Did this mean that she is his true love or his true meal? I mean, I don't usually fall in love with my pizza. Would he have had her for a meal had he been a vampire that takes human beings?
Hats off to Nathan for letting me borrow his 4th book! I've been hooked on this series since last year's book fair! Just like Mrs. Vater, the whole idea of Bella's blood smelling different (in a fresh batch of brownies sort of way) is a little creepy to me. The connection between these two must have been powerful from the beginning for Bella to risk hanging out with someone who could be so dangerous for her own survival. I think I would be a little more nervous about spending so much time with Edward if that was me! Does that make Bella brave or dumb? There's a fine line there I think.

I'm on the fourth book and can't wait for the Twilight movie to be released in November! The girl who played in made for TV movie Speak plays Bella and the Harry Potter actor who played Cedric Diggory plays Edward in Twilight--it should be GOOD!
i am kind of ify about what I think about these books by all your descriptions but i am definately going to try it
this really has nothing to do with this book but this is a series that i think Nathan and a couple other people may like. it is called the septimus heap series. it is about the seventh son of the seventh son. it is a great series. if you try it you must go in order. the first book is called Magyk then i believ it is flyte and last fyre but if you read it you should check. i am for sure though that the first book is called magyk. the reviews all say mostly look out harry you have compeitition
for miss Anna C.,
For me i personaly dont caare about the genre becaues i love the books so much. I think the books are romantic, adventure, and non fiction. But i cant be for sure, you know me.

-Vampire King
Come on Vader, we all know you are in love with your pizza. Smiley

I had Nathan tell me about the book one day in class, I really didnt know why every one was talking about it so much, but when he told me about it i was really interested. I went out yesterday and bought the book. It's almost impossible to put down, I am already on page 431. So thank you Nathan for telling me about it!
I hope you are all award

twilight was a very good book. it kept you on the edge of your seat. Once i started it i couldn't put it down. Twilight is a good romantic and fiction book.

"Nathan - What genre would you say these books fit into. Fantasy or Science Fiction? I appreciate the time, effort (and thought) you have given to the blog! It is great"

Hey Mrs.Cummins the book is none of the above it is not fantasy (That would be like magic and unicorns Harry Potter type Things) or SCi-Fi(That would be like Star-Trek or Star Wars.)
Twilight is a romance, it has been announced that Twilight is the modern day Romeo and Juliet, and will probably go down as one of the best books of it's time


P.S Hey Mrs.Vater go to www.twilightmoms.com

I hope you are all aware of the movie that is coming out in November. I bet Nathan will be first in line ! Followed by Ms. Conley and Ms. Vater.
Me and Nick Nagel (Emmett) were one of the first BCMS kids in line for the movie on the date of the premire, I have seen it twice because my mom wouldn't let me see it anymore!

Bella's blood smells so different because Bella is special to Edward, Sort of like when you love someone and they look and feel so different to you because that is what love is. Do you know how we all have a favorite Flower? Well Bella's blood to Edward is the sweetest smelling flower(fresia to be exact) so beautiful and fragile but yet so inviting that you can't Help but to want to pick it, but that is also putting it in danger and that is probably what Edward was feeling at the time, Bella also suffered this as well because the time she was spending with Edward put him in danger of letting his family's secret, while she was so fragrant he had to fight every step of the way trying not to "pick" such a delicate being and that is part of what makes the story so intresting image trying to fight something that your mind wanted to devour while your heart wanted to keep the "flower" alive so that other people could experience it's beauty. The young girl's primacy of first love, forbidden love and what is more forbidden than loving a vampire, so amazing but at the same time so dangerous, on one hand the pairs world is so seperated, so different, almost unable to co-exist together let alone live for each other, but than on the other hand nothing can stand in the way of you loving that person for an eternity.
I hope you all can understand this, because it is a very clear explination of my feelings toward the matter.
