Twilight Chapter 1-2
This week, I've started to read a new book called 'Twilight'. I've decided to read only a bit from this book because I wanted to know only the main plot and my friends had recommended to me. The fist chapter was about the main characters of the book. The girl called Bella, was the main character and she just moved to a new place because her mother and her father had divorced. I'll finish this book after I finish reading Harry Potter. I think the story will about a love story between Bella and a boy.

Reading journal-2(Chapter 8)
I started enjoying the book 'Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone'. Until now, the main plot is that Harry had parents who were magicians and his parents were killed by a dark wizard.
He was sent to his uncle(uncle bernon).
His uncle and aunt did'nt like him because they thought that he was extraordinary and it was embarassing to hang out with him. Their sun Dudley also bullied Harry.
Harry did'nt know that his parents were magicians and they were murdered by a dark wizard because his aunt and uncle never told him.
Then, Hagrid the gamekeeper of Hogwarts come to Harry and told him all about his parents and that he is a wizard. Harry was astonished when he heard that, but he started believing Hagrid after he saw magics.
Harry made new friends, Ron and Hermione in Hogwart. Ron's family was poor and Hermione's parents were muggles.(Known as people who can't do magic)
Freshmans had to be sorted out to four dormitories Gryffindor, Ravenclaw,Hufflepuff and Slytherin. Harry and his friend, Ron and Hermione eventually were sorted out to Gryffindor and they were relieved that they were not sorted to Slytherin ,because Slytherin was related to dark magic.
Until now, I think the author described the settings and surroundings delicately. It made me imagine and made me keep reading the book. It was also interesting to me that magicians call people who can't do magic 'muggle'. I think I can finish this book in 2months. Can't wait to read!!

My first reading journal
This week, I found out that I had'nt read 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' yet, so I decided to read it.
August 19th : I read the first chapter of it , 'The boy who lived'
August 20th : I read the second chapter of it , 'The vanishing glass'
August 21th : I read the third chatper of it , 'The letters from no one'
August 22th : I read the fourth and fifth chapter of it , 'The Keeper of the keys' and 'Diagon Alley'
August 23th : I read the sixth and seventh chapter of it, 'The Journey from Platform Nine and Three-quarters' , 'The sorting hat'Reading Profile:
I often choose a novel or a nonfiction for leisure in a month. Because of school work, I couldn't read so much so I usually choose a book to read each month. When I was in middle school, I usually read books to fall in sleep earlier. Now, I am old and I read books for knowledge and fun. In my opinon, I think reading is a good way to accumulate our knowledges and to improve imagination.
I often choose adventure and mysteries. I like these kind of books the most because it is interesting and it makes me imagine the scene easily.
In the past year, I think the most enjoyable book I had read was 'Twilight'. It was enjoyable for me because vampire was involved and I had already seen it through the movie.
The favorite author of me is 'Roald Dahl' He had established many books and the books he made were good. The story structure was interesting and it was quite humurous.
In this year, my reading goals is to read 30 books. I'm not sure if I can achieve it , but I will try my best.

One quetion that I have chose:Is there an interesting minor characther? Describe him/her and explain why they are interesting.
In my opinion, I think the most interesting minor characther is Hagrid. Hagrid is the gamekeeper of Hogwart and he is half blood giant and human. He is a very huge man and the author described his height as about 3 meter. He is the person who told Harry that he is a wizard. When he was a student in Hogwart, he was expelled because of am imputation. However, the head master forgave him and let him to work as a game keeper. He is a member of the order of the Phoenix and is helping Harry Potter to fight against Voldermort. In conclusion, the most interesting characther for me was Hagrid.
