Night Runner E-Journal Entry 1

So far I really like the book, its pretty much the only book I like reading because it is so interesting. I also think it will continue to be suspenseful because it constantly sets itself up for another exciting moment. I am really glad Ms. C chose this book for me to read because it is a great book and it was also my first choice. I think? I also liked how at the end of the eighth chapter Zach’s uncle so he says tells him that his father was a vampire hunter and he died when he was murdered by one. So I think this book was a great choice and I’m really enjoying it.

Yes my birthday was exceptional, and I believe the term is foreshadowing.
 * Hey Mike,**
 * Sorry we missed you today! Hope you had a good birthday yesterday. You speak often about suspense and the set up for something exciting. Can you tell me the term for that? I am also pleased that you are enjoying your novel. Great job as wiki Master too!**
 * Take care and I will await your next entry and response.**

Zack's uncle showed up he told him some things about his father and how he was a vampire hunter.It was weird how he just showed up all of a sudden and told him all of this stuff that sounded a little hard to believe. When Zack's uncle told him that his memory of getting bit by a dog was fake I knew it was a vampire who bit him and those weird strawberry milk shakes were filled with blood so he didn't bite the nurse. For me this chapter really answered alot of questions.

=﻿ E-Journal Entry #3= When nurse Ophelia leaves he is left with nurse Roberta who does not know how to feed him. When they go to the kitchen to make the shake Zack points out the bag of "syrup" but nurse Roberta saw the label "not for human consumption". Zack kept insisting that this is what nurse Ophelia gave him. She finally gave in and let him have the shake, he knew now it wasn't strawberry he was drinking.

=﻿Prediction= Well I think that Zacks uncle will try to come back and get him but Zack will find something out like he's really not not his uncle and he's a bad guy or something so he runs away with his friend Charlie to his cottage.

=﻿E-Journal Entry #4= My prediction was pretty close to what actually happened, after Zack left with Charlie he went to the cottage and met with Luna and Suki. All of them, including Charlie, had a good time they went to a party. When they were at the party they all had beer at the fire except Zack and Luna for some reason.

Examples of ( please included page numbers and examples) (Yes, you can provide more than one example! :)
 * **Protagonist** || The protagonist in this story is Zack he is the leading character he is a very fast runner but can only run indoors because of his allergies. ||
 * Antagonist || The antagonist in this story is manely Vrolok although his uncle causes some conflict it is not as much of problem compared to Vrolok. e.g Vrolok drinks Luna's blood. ||
 * Setting || The setting is first at a hospital in Peterborough. Then when he decide he doesn't want to leave with his uncle he goes to Mr.Entwhistle’s house but eventually has to escape from there, so he takes Charlie up on his offer to go to the cottage. ||
 * Conflict || Most of the conflict is caused when Vrolok the vampire hunter trys to kill Zack and this all began after the old man crashed into the hosptial. ||
 * Climax || The Climax was interesting in this book bacause it was near the last chapter and thats not really common. The climax was when Zack was in his uncle's office with Vrolok and the fight breaks out and Vrolok drinks Luna's blood, and some other dramatic stuff happens like when the sun comes in and Zack burns up because he is allergic. ||
 * Resolution || Well its hard to say in this book what the resolution is but I'm going to guess it is a good resolution when Zack and Luna don't die. This also sets the book up for a sequel. ||
 * **Foreshadowing** || In this book an example of foreshadowing is when Zacks friend thinks his milkshake with 'Strawberry' sauce in it smells funny when Zack thinks it smells good. ||
 * === Similies === || ===Page 39. paragraph #1 - "The room smelled a bit funny, like cigars"===

Page 74. Paragraph #5 - " Like it was made of wet news paper"
