Week 5

2.5 hours
Page 105-140
This week what I read didn't advance the book much. Well step goes to California and he finds out him and glass have to share a room and he was not planing this. You have to remember that step is LDS and step doesn't want glass asking a ton of questions about steps garmets. So step tells glass to go and get a drink and step just changes without glass there. Well in the convention step is stuck in a booth all day and he wants to have someone buy the rights to haker snack (the game he created) but he can't leave the booth. So he finally stood up to Dicky and dicky said no but Ray let step go. Well while step left hewas sorta offered a job and it's kinda confusing thing but yeah that's pretty much what I read. But guess it's just what I read.

Lost Boys- week 3

3 Hours
65-104
I really am starting to enjoy this book. The author really express his characters really well. A lot has happened in this section of the book. We start with Stevie and school. When Deanne picks Stevie up from school he is just fuming. He wouldn't even speak to anyone. He is just angry at everything and won't tell anyone what's wrong. When Step gets home Deanne goes to talk to Stevie. He starts crying and tells her that all the kids make fun of his accent. He is also mad because the teacher yells at him because he is mad at the other kids. He says he won't go back to that school. Deanne calls the princable at home to discuss what has happened and the princable tells her that she fells horrible for how Stevie was treated. She said she will have Stevie work in her office the next day. Deanne thanks her greatly. Then a lot of time passes and things work out. Step is getting used to his job but neither him nor Deanne can stand his work hours which usually go from around 8 A.M.-9 P.M. But Step is really starting to get respect at his work. Well he once went into the office when he wasn't supposed to and he saw the programmers working on a program he has the rights too. Well he runs out in a furry and tells Deanne he gonna sue them big time. But Deanne told him to just sell the rights and live off them he agrees. Well that's pretty much what I read about this week.

Lost Boys- week 2

2 hours
pages 33-65
This week in lost boys we learn a lot about Steps job. Basically both his boss and supervisor are both idiots who only know how to scam people, the only one who knows what he's doing is a guy Step befriends from the beginning named Gallowglass. He actually programed the company's main invention; a computer called the Atari. But his boss takes all credit. He doesn't mind though because his boss gives him a good amount of money. Step is still having a really hard time changing from being self employed to working at the bottom. But he is being treated way better than he thought. All the other workers treat him like a god because he programed such an amazing game.
Deanne just met like their only other Morman neighbor. She's an extremely odd woman who lets her kids run wild which Deanne really dislikes. Well thats about what I read for this week.

Lost Boys

2 hours
Pages 1-33
I am reading a book called Lost Boys by Orson Scott Card. So far this book is about a family that moves to a new town called Steuben, North Carolina. There are 5 members of the family; Step, DeAnne, Stevie, Robbie, and Betsie. The reason they are moving is because Step is offered a new job. Stevie is having an extra hard time adjusting to school. Step is hating his job because he went from being self employed to the bottom of the food chain because his business fell through. DeAnne is doing pretty good except she is always worried about her kids. I'm really enjoying this book and i am glad i choose to read this one. I'm pretty curious of what happens in the future of this book, judging by the cover and the summary of the back of the book.
