Part 4 reading diary

10: As you read today what surprised you? Explain how this will affect the story or how it changed your thinking about the story.


        What I read today that surprised me the most is when they found that the captain of the '' Dauntless'' was reliable. Im  surprised by this because I thought that the captain was with Pyce's and that nailer's dad came along on that ship. I assumed that his dad came on the Dauntless because it didn't say how he got here, plus they did show up on the same time too. This changes a lot for me. I thought the dauntless was unreliable but it was, so that mean's nailer might actually not get caught. Also it means that theres a chance that nita might be reunited with her father.

Reading Diary part 3


10: As you read today, what surprised you? Explain how this will affect the story or how will it change your thinking about the story.



          What surprised me is when tool volunteers to help Nita and Nailer. He is like a friend of Nailer's dad and like isn't he working with him or something. Shouldn't he be like killing them all and turning Nita in, that would make sense. I n the beginining I thought tool was a tool but used in violence like he would be sent out to go kill people. I guess not now though.

Reading diary part one

                                                          Reading diary part 1

  Question 9  If you could ask any character a question, what would you ask? If you could ask the author a question, what might that be? Explain why you chose those questions.

 Answer: I would ask nailer why he's working the light crew ship breaking. I  mean there could have been an alternative. The question I would ask to the author is why he wrote ''Ship Breaker''.
     The reason why I chose these questions is one why would nailer work as a ship breaker. Its hard, tiring and there's a chance you die. Why would you work a lot for a small amount of pay? As for the question for the author I was wondering why he wrote the book. He could of wrote it out of the blue but he should have inspiration for writing it. Was it an event inspiring him that he had to write a story aout or perhaps an awareness that he's trying to send out. I would like to know why.
