7th Post

I finished The Compund! ill tell yah, i couldnt put it down. Eli was wandering around the compund and he found a connection to the internet. A few days later he went on agaain it sadi he had one I.M buddy on. yan twin 2 was the user name. He had found eddy. i was shaocked. i was shocked becaus ei honestly expected eddy to be dead and because in a sense i really couldnt belive what was going on. so he continued chatting with eddy and he got word that there really WASNT a nuclear strike on the u.s and that the whole world was safe. his grandma went on and sadi that there was a plane that just hit the camper that the family was staying on and that everyone was ok. Again, i was shocked. Eli rushed to his mom and told her. She was furious. Lexie(his older sister) who is a huge fan of her dad was saying that that wasnt true. Mr. Yanakakis walked in and Mrs. Yanakakis let him have it. He explained that he knew what it was like out there, but he built the compound the day that he realized that he was being a bad farther and was not spending time with his kids. I think this was a stupid idea. I think this because your rich, just take them on a vacation or take a week off. He also said that once they emerged everyone would want a compound just incase something bad would happen. So Eli puched him in the face. HIs dad had a poisoning from eating bad wheat and was ruched to the er of the compound. they nedded outside help in order to cure him. Elli had to figure out the code from only one clue, which was durducken. his dad got better aufuly quick and ripped up the code. Eli had a tough choice to make, let his litlle"Supplement" brother die, or give up the code and he made a smart move on that one. So he had to figure out the code and using a series of nuclear testings and birthdates, he figured it out. He escaped, but only for a while. Phil, his dad's assistant showed up on a helicopter and had a charge that would blow up the compound. HIs dad came put and had to help Eli save his family. He rushed back into the compound and grabbed his pregnant mom and his little brothers and sisters and ran. he ran and then boom. bam. ker pow. whatever word ud like to use, the compund blew up. Eddy came a day later and that led to a happy ending. Thats bout it! bubbi!

Greetings and Salutations! I am on my way in the Compound around page 120 and it's real interesting. It;s interesting in a way that makes u want to keep reading, even though not to much action is going on. So Eli was snooping around the Compound and just checking out all the rooms. He went into his dead twin brother's room, which he had never been in, and found a laptop. He carried itaround the Compound and while stopping outside of his dad's office, he turned on the laptop. something happened that had never happened in a long time, the internet was up. At first i thought that Eli was just seeing things and that it wasnt really happening. But then Eli staeted to talk to his father. His mom said that she believed that his dad was keeping things from her, and that he wasnt trustworthy anymore. Eli's dad came clean to him and said that he had found a connection sent out by one of the survivors and did not tell anyone, cause it would give them false hope. I think this was a good and bad decision. I think this because on the upside, he has a connection and giving a family false hope that their own child may even be out there could start a panic. But on the other hand, his dad should really tell his family everything. If u cant trust the poeple that ur living with for the next 9 years,, then y even live? Thats about all so see yah.

I finished Project 17 and Started this new boook called The Compound by S.A Bodeen. I started reading this because i heard it was good and it was recomended to me. It;s about what happens after a nuclear rain of bombs hits the U.S and kills everybody, except this rich family named the Yanakakis's. Eli Yanakakis(our main character) and his family run into this luxury bomb shelter called the compound, where they'll be living for the next 15 years. Eli had lost his twin brother Eddy in the bombing and has never been the same.. 6 years after, he still misses him more than anytghing. Thats about all that has happend so far. But, i cans till make predictions. I predict that Eli is going to want to escape the compound, even though its the only place that is safe and has life, so they think. I predict this beccause Eli has said that he needs a change of scenery and that he wonders if eddy is still alive. Thats means he'll being willing to risk anything to find him. Thats al;l for now, by. (Commented on Andrew's blog)
