Insurgent: Week of 10/7/13

Prompt: Draw a picture for what you just read.
Describe the main characters.
Pages Read: 454-510

*SPOILER ALERT* 
Currently in the book, Insurgent, Tris, her friend Christina, and Marcus, who is the father of her boyfriend Four, have infiltrated Erudite headquarters. While infiltrating Erudite headquarters, Tris finds herself trying to battle herself. Her opponent has the same physical attributes as her and the same fighting skills. Tris realizes that they have one difference, she is desperate, her opponent is not. Throughout the reading, I believe you truly find a different side to Tris. A side that is willing to do anything for what is right. She is willing to ally with one of her greatest enemies, Marcus, for the greater good.

As I have read Insurgent I have learned to understand the characters. Such as Tris, throughout the story you find that she is unselfish and brave. Tobias, or better known as Four, is daring and quick-witted. Jeanine, I believe can only be described as desperate, diabolical, and yet somehow still perceptive. Tris maintains to show among both Divergent and Insurgent a somewhat level-head. Four is skilled in keeping his emotions under wraps and able to pull of a poker face at any needed moment. Jeanine is rather ignorant when it comes to the human spirit, willpower, and state of mind.

  1. I love your drawing, I really wish I could draw like that. Is that picture of Tris what you think she looks like? If it is, you have very good imagination. I also love how detailed you are in the drawing, with the blood on the lip and the cut under her eye. One other thing I like about your post is that you compare Tris to other book. This makes me want to read your book because it sounds interesting when Tris is fighting Tris.

  2. I love your blog post! I like how you wrote about the part when tris is battling herself. That was one of my favorite parts. Also, I love how you described the characters in the second paragraph. Four can definitely pull a poker face when need be. Your drawing is beautiful and the way you portrayed Tris in this drawing, to me, really shows who she is on the inside. A fighter.
