Unwind blog 2 pg 121 - 152

At this point in the book everything begins to become a little more confusing with Lev being separated from Connor and Risa. You also meet Cyfi in this section and Connor and Rissa are sent to an unwind warehouse.

I really enjoyed this section of the book mainly because of the character Cyfi. He is an Umber colored boy that Lev meets in a mall. Cyfi is very interesting though because he has another boys frontal lobe, causing him to have small premonitions/urges brought on by the other boys emotions. At first this was very confusing to grasp but I found that the boy transfers his emotions through Cyfi. After this the book switches back to the viewpoints of Connor and Risa. At this point in their journey they come to a safe warehouse for unwinds where they live for the next 2-3 weeks. During this time the character known as Roland starts to build alliances with people through psychological warfare. This part was also interesting because it is funny to watch connor get in many fights with people over silly arguments.

So far i really like the book and I am actually almost done with it. I will just have to go back and do my blogs after i finish it.

unwind post1

I chose this book because it seemed the most interesting in class and i tend to like books that deal with the future. Also the cover looked very cool so i also based my desicion off of that.

So far i find the book kind of confusing. The main characters keep mentioning unwinding without explaining it. So far the boy Connor finds out that he is going to be unwound and he decides to run away with his girlfriend. when it comes time to run away his girfriend Ariana decides that she will stay home. This kind of confused me because it came after along talk with Connor that she had where she promised to him sincerly that she would go with him. Eventually he decides to just leave on his own.

At this point the book seems a little confusing but I know that it will get better.
