Journal Response

Dear Journal,
    
       I am read the book " Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld. I have read the chapter called Rapids.
So far the two characters Tally and Shay have already snook over to the New Pretty town
and almost got caught. Then Shay taught Tally how to hoverboard.
　
           Before they took off, Tally had come clean and told Shay that she
had promised her friend who was already pretty, that she wouldn't get into
trouble. Shay explained to her that maybe her Tally's friend Peris only
said that to get rid of her for a whole two months. Tally didn't want to think
that but she knew it was true. But Tally also told her that she thought if
she got in trouble they wouldn't turn her pretty.
       In Rapids, they are hoverboarding in over the white river which is very nasty.
They have to wear goggles, crash bracelets and a belly sensor. They ride over the
rapids and get to the ruins which is their destination. Tally finds out that hoverboards
need metal to fly, then she is puzzled on how it can ride on the waters. Shay explains
that the earth has minerals and that the hoverboards can refer to that, but they
prefer iron. Then Shay stopps both of them and points at the clouds breaking away
and the moon shining through. Some towers shot up and casted jagged shadows.
They instantly thought " The Rusty Ruins".
          I think that if I were Tally, I would have not given it a second thought and stook
with Shay, they were both turning pretty the same day, so it was alright to let loose two
months before and have a load of fun.
                                                                     Sincerely,
