Journal # 1 By: Tom Millard

Journal #1


The novel, The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer is a very entertaining book. It excited me, made me sad, and was suspenseful. It excited me because of the action in the book like when Matt breaks the window to get out of Celia's house. Some parts of the book saddened me, such as when Rosa the maid throws Matt into an empty cement room when she finds out that Matt is a clone. She then takes away his bead and throws saw wood shavings on the ground like you would do to a chicken. It was also sad when Matt realizes that eejits are people who have chips in their brains and are pretty much zombies. The book has some very suspenseful parts that have you on the edge of your seat while you read. One of the most suspenseful parts of the book is when Matt is right near the border and he sees the farm patrol, he hides and when they are distracted he makes a run for the boarder. They see him and grab him by his backpack but he wiggles out of it and gets across the border to safety.
