The main character of this story is Josh. Whats happening in this story is that technology is taking over and how their lives are gonna change. When this was happening was in 1996. Where this was taking place was in their neighborhood in their houses. This was happening because many people change throughout history. Peoples lives change with the technology that is given today. How this was happening because of inventions.
I think the genre of this book is historical fiction. What I like about it is that peoples lives are gonna change with one invention. I've read this genre many times before and it very interesting. I would love to read this book again. What I didn't like about this story was that they weren't explaining it as much and could have gone in detail. I didn't really learn anything besides that technology is a big deal today. Hopefully there is a part two to this I would love to read more!!

"The Future of us" So far...
So far in the story I see it as how people are changing. People back then didn't know how to use the internet. But then myspace, facebook etc.. was made. 2 neighbors have lived next to each other their whole lives. Josh and Emma are the two main characters. I think that they are trying to tell people that life is gonna be a lot more different. Barley anyone listened to them. But they should have in my opinion.
The conflict of the story is man vs society and man vs man. Self to think that man vs society is that everyone is gonna be on the internet more and they are. And man vs man because two people are facing others trying to warn them about the next century. As well as man vs technology. I'd say the theme of this book is that "Technology is just an illusion" Why I think this is because technology was just made for a tool. People take it as a everyday thing and not engaging with one another.

"Fish in the Sky" summary
The main character in this book is Josh Stephenson he is 13 years of age. What is going on in this book is that Josh had just turned 13 and now is becoming a teenager and his cousin who is 17 moved in with him. When this was happening could be anytime more likely in the 21st century. This was as well as it happening in New York. Why this was happening is because he was 13 and started to feel how a teenager feels like. How was because he was 13 and became someone bigger and more mature.
The point of view in the book "Fish In the Sky" is First person. How I know this is because most of the time the book is talking about Josh. The book mostly uses I. "I turned away from my mom in fear" Josh says. I really enjoyed this book of its point of view. I wouldn't like to read this book in other point of views. I would leave it the way it is. Because point of view can explain mostly what they think or what they want. For example "Hunger Games" Katniss wants to live and she explains whats happening.

"Lemon Brown" Blog
My reaction to this book was shocking. The reason is because Lemon Brown had a good life. But it could all down by a single push.
That even though homeless people don't have enough life. They are still really proud.
What I found interesting was that Lemon Brown used to play for the blues and he lost his whole family.
He changed because he wanted to give someone a chance before judging him.

new book "Fish in the sky"
Thirteen year old Josh Stephenson starts a fresh year and a turn of event happen. So far Josh meets new friends in school. As well as his 17 year old cousin moves in so things start getting frustrating for him. He also notice some people getting bullied because of there names but turn out to be good people. He loves to dream about things he would love to come true. But all this has changed since he has turned 13.
Character analysis:
Josh is 13 years of age. He loves to dream about big things in life. His dad however is never mentioned anymore. His dad left him by the age of 5. His mom and dad never agreed with each other so that why his dad left. In advance Josh learned to man up and become more successful in school and from there he witnesses things turn for him. Josh although, does get turned around with things and hard to become a new teenager. Which means more school, homework, etc.
