The group were also suposed to tell about a specific thing every blog, and in this weeks blog i'm going to tell you about the vocabulary in the book.
I'm not finding the book very hard to read so there's not so many words i don't understand, but there's some that's good to know the meaning of.

Here's some words that are good to know the meaning of.  

aquaintance (when you are having a connection betwen people you know) = bekantskap

humidity (when it's a little wet but now wet allthrough) = humidity
gazing (when somebody or something is giving you looks) = blickar


we are also suposed to tell you all a quote every blog, so here's mine: "It's a sorry thing to leave your home, and this one's been good to her."

The environment in the novel was at first very beautiful, the main character was living on an island and there were glowing fishes and beautiful stars. Later on she went to the mainland and there the environment wasnt beautiful at all. The city was in ruins and the desert was dark and lonely.


Quote: Aint a fish swimming in the ocean could beat these crackers.

I choose this senentence just couse i thought it was funny.

First off to explain this part of the blogging, each time we make a stop in the book everyone gets a role to write about. So for example this week I´m "the summariser" wich means that i will summarise all the events that have taken place in the book so far. The other roles are "the vocabulary enricher", "the connector", "the travel tracer" and "the character tracer". I believe that the others in my group will explain their roles further in their own posts.


So as I said, this week I´m the summariser and so far in the book there have actually been a lot of things going on. First off we have met this girl named Temple who lives on her own. Temple seem to be pretty comfortable living on her own and she also posesses a lot of diffrent skills such as fishing, firemaking and of course scouting and killing zombies. In the beginning of the book Temple lives in an old lighthouse until one morning when she finds a zombie that have been washed up on the shore, she talks with the zombie for a while before she kills it, packs her stuff in a cooling bag and swims over the sea to the mainland. On the mainland she finds a car wich she hotwires and drives away with. On the trip she collects som supplies like food and other necessary things. After that quick stop she continues to drive until the car breaks down, she spots an old house and enters it only find herself trapped with three zombies, fortunatly she fights them off quite easily. 

So far I really enjoy the book, it´s very exciting and the description of the enviroment is really good. I wonder what the others in my group thinks about the book so far? 


Quote from the book - "See there´s a music to the world and you got to be listening otherwise you´ll miss it sure"

My name is Marcus, I´m not really a big fan of books but as soon as I sit down with a book and choose to spend time with it I really enjoy it!   

I chose this book mainly beacuse i´m a huge fan of zombies.  I hope that the book will have a lot of action and fights in it so that it doesn´t just end up in a worthless love story. I think that writing about the book in a blog will be really fun and exciting!
