Olivia Day #1 My favorite character has to be Noah because he seems a little cocky, but he is really goofy and funny. He always thinks what he has done is great. Maybe a little too great. I feel that this book is very confusing. There are different points of view, every which way. I found two weird words.One of them is lectern. It means podium.; place where people stand to speak or give a speech. The other word is bated, which means waiting for something. Next, on page three, paragraph three, I found a hyperbole. "Had the room been two degrees colder, the glass would have shattered." I think that Noah is a little smart aleck. He kind of reminds me of Charles Wallace in A Wrinkle in Time. The author uses foreshadowing when he mentions that Noah was using a calligraphy pen. It makes me think that Noah will get the first question right. I found another example of foreshadowing when Noah said that the cake looked good for a while. Later in the chapter, the cake gets ruined by Allen. So far, this story is not as interesting as I thought it would be. Hopefully, it will get better!
