Reading Log Week 14

Book: Warriors-Into the Wild Author: Erin Hunter Pages read: 204 - 272 Multiple perspectives: From Firepaw's point of view, Tigerclaw is the traitor who wants nothing but to seek power. From Bluestar's perspective, he is an extremely loyal deputy who will rise valiantly to any occasion for his Clan. And this is also the perspective shared by the rest of the Clan cats. Firepaw, for example, notices the untrustworthiness in Tigerclaw when it says, "What was it Ravenpaw had said? That Redtail had killed Oakheart? But according to Tigerclaw, Oakheart had killed Redtail and he, Tigerclaw, had killed Oakheart in revenge." (Hunter 147) This shows that Firepaw began suspecting Tigerclaw and putting the puzzle together at a very early start. This quote shows that Tigerclaw might have been lying, and Firepaw never really enjoyed the grumpy Tigerclaw's company, which leads me to believe that Firepaw had good reason to distrust Tigerclaw. As for Bluestar and the rest of the Clan, they thought that Tigerclaw was fiercely loyal to the Clan. This is obvious when it says, "'There was a time, when Tigerclaw was a young warrior, that I feared for the strengh of his passion. Such energy can need careful channeling. But now I am proud to see how much respect the Clan has for him.'" (Hunter 229) This means that Bluestar completely trusts and depends on Tigerclaw, because she has seen him grow up and become more mature, leading her to believe he was trustworthy. Book: Inkspell Author: Cornelia Funke Pages read: 1 - 80 Predictions: I believe that Basta, Farid, and Meggie are all going to be sucked into the Inkworld, and Fenoglio would reenter the story. Also, Mo, possibly Resa, and Elinor would try to follow them into the Inkworld, thus creating more conflicts. I believe that they will all enter the Inkworld because Meggie really want to go, Farid says he needs to go, and Basta would create mor conflict. For example, it says, "where the passage mentioned a boy, in the sentence left unread by Orpheus, Mwggie had added 'and the girl.'" (Hunter 72) This displays that Meggie desperately wants to go to the Inkworld to see all the things her family had described. This leads me to believe that she will go in order to add plot twist.
