Tonantzin:

Oaks: In the begging Katniss is a very responsible person. She takes care of her family by breaking the law so her family can have enough food to eat. She is also very independent, because she knows how to take care of herself and after her dad died she took charge. She is strong and uses her knowledge to survive. She is a very interesting girl and quite moody.

In the end she becomes even stronger. She is not scared to stand up to the government like she was before. Katniss is more caring and nurturing then before. She also starts looking for a relationship. She is against the hunger games and doesn’t want them to go one anymore. Katniss also becomes more open to her emotions.

Katniss strengths are being very smart. She uses that to help her and outsmart the government in the hunger games. She is very good with a bow and is a strong individual. She is very caring which ends up being a good thing for her. These help her in the book and she becomes even better and more fully developed then before.

Michelle:  The main character in The Maze Runner is Thomas, known as Greenie in the beginning because he was the Newbie. When Thomas first arrives at Glade he is really confused and lost. He can't remember anything other than his first name, and has a lot of questions to ask but no one really answers them, which makes him really frustrated. He feels trapped in Glade.

 In the end of Thomas becomes more of a leader and has more confidence in himself. by having confidence in himself others also start trusting him, though not all. He uses what he knows to help find a way back home and even puts himself in danger to save as many Gladers as he can. All in all i think he became a lot more mature.

 Thomas's strengths, well he is curious and personally I think that could be seen as a strength because he wants to know more. As far as I am in the book, Thomas is still a little impatient to get answer and that is a weakness in some ways. Throughout the book his characteristics become more and more developed.

Megan: //Life As We Knew It// is writen as a diary, so the main character in this book is the one who is writing and telling the story, her name is Miranda. As she writes it shows all of her different emotions and feelings, they are very scattered. Sometimes she loves this person then she hates that person. One day is really good and then one is really bad. In the beginning Miranda is kind of a complainer about everything, she dosn't realize of how good things really are. She is very self-centered in the beginning and dosn't really think about any one else.

Throughout Miranda's diary entries it shows how she changes and grows. She started out self-centered but as time went on and the troubles began she started to realize things that she hadn't realized before. She found out how electricity was such a luxury in her life, she experienced hunger, sorrow, fear but also hope. She learned that she does care about her family and what happens to them. She realized that there is no way she could have made it without them and their help. She finally realized she didn't know everything and sometimes it's others who knows what's best.

Miranda had many weaknesses but so did every character in the book. On of her big weaknesses was controlling her temper. She got in fights with her mom all the time even when she realized she could have stoped it. She also had a hard time seeing someone else's point of veiw.
