Conflict--Every book has some sort of conflict that pulls the reader in and keeps the reader reading. Conflict can be person vs. person, person vs. nature, person vs. self, person vs. society, or person vs. the supernatural. Identify the primary conflict in your novel. Who or what is involved with the main conflict? What is the conflict? How does your character handle himself/herself when faced with this conflict? How does this conflict add to the story line of your novel? How is the conflict resolved and what is the outcome?
In my book "This is the Day" by Tim Tebow there are many different conflicts throughout the book. The biggest one i think is person to self. The reason i think that is because the book is all about the struggleand what he had to go through to get to where he is now. One of the things that he says is "we get knocked down, but we are not destroyed". He is constantly talking about how his body is always tired and he just feels emotionally drained but he always had to push himself to keep going. I think the conflict here is just life and how hard your willing to work to get what you want. Tim Tebow handles himself great when he faces a conflict. He is always thinking about the positive side and he always stays motivated. I think the conflict basically is the story line because without the hard work and the things that sucked, then he wouldnt be where he is today.
ReplyDeleteI think this book sounds good because we dont see the struggles Tim Tebow went though by just watching him play on tv.
DeleteI'm reading the same book and i agree one hundred percent he is super motivational and always super positive.
Deletemy book the main character is dealing with a lot with self identity issues and he doesn't really belong any where so he is battling with him self and it is really person vs person
Deletei have that same book at home and i have yet to read it but by the sounds of it i would like the book because the conflicts would be interesting to read.
DeleteSo i read the book stoner and spaz. There are also multiple conflicts in this book. One big conflict is the main character faces bullies at school. This is a major struggle because the bullies impact him so much that he doesnt want to come to school anymore.
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of similar to my book because Jeremy is having a really tough time with his parents death like how in your book he is having a hard time with bullies.
Deletei am reading the book snow bound and he faces somting close to that too has has to deal with a few mean people but he just runs away and about dies.
DeleteSo far in my book outpost the conflict is between the town and these monsters they call freaks. Earlier in the book they went out to plant food so that they have food to eat throughout the winter. About a week later when they went out to start pulling weeds the freaks ripped out all of the seeds and cut the heads off of 6 of there dead and stuck them to the post. The gaurds and the main charachter have relized there becoming smarter then they thought but have to protect the feilds from the freaks. The main charchter Deuce has volunteered to watch the feilds full time and abunch of others. It keeps you reading because the freaks are known to kill the humans and attack and there having abunch of weird encounters with the freaks while there building there outpost.
ReplyDeletemy book is very similar because my characters need to plant and find game for food and need to fight against nature to survive
DeleteIt sounds like the humans are having a difficult time building their outpost without encountering with the freaks.This seems like a really interesting book to read.
Deletemy book is kind if like yours because theres a lot of death in it. the people in my book dont get killed by monsters but the die by eating a weed called devil grass.
DeleteI wish my book had a more interesting story line like your book does would make it a lot funnier to read.
DeleteI feel like this is slightly concerning read but seems to keep people entertained so maybe not so bad.
DeleteI am reading "The River" by gary paulsen. The conflict in this book is person vs nature and you could argue that it could also be person vs person. The person vs nature conflict is that nature is fighting Brian and Derek. At one point the mosquitoes in the tent were super terrible and they could not stand sleeping in the tent. Another time Brian was standing on a dirt ledge and it gave away but when he fell, he fell on flint rock so they can now make fire. With fire it creates smoke which repels mosquitoes. The person vs person conflict was when Brian and Derek got to the lake and Brian said that he would not go out if they brought the gear on the lake because it would defeat the purpose of their survival course. So the only thing they brought was the radio just in case someone would get terribly hurt.
ReplyDeleteis this book based off of a true story
DeleteMy book has a conflict with the land and who will own and farm it. It is kind of similar to yours because they both have to do with nature.
DeleteMy book is also person vs nature but in a different way because my characters are not getting long term hurt
Deletei am reading the book snow bound and its kind of like that he faces conflits having to survie in the woods and just about dies.
Deletei read that book and that was a good book i really enjoyed it
DeleteI am currently reading the book Finding Zasha. There are many of conflicts throughout the book and the main one from the start was the war was coming to their town. They had to leave to get away from all the bombings and not enough food. This conflict would be man vs Society because it is all of Germany. The second conflict right now is when Ivan gets talked to by one of the German officials and he wants him to come in a play music for them. He doesn't know how long he will be away from his family. This conflict would be man vs. man because it is between Ivan and Axel. These conflicts are hard on Ivan but he takes them like a champ. He never gets nervous and he always handles it like hes been in the situation before.
ReplyDeleteso is this based off of a true story and did this happen in real life
Deletemy characters also had a clashing of opinions in my book. they also handled it like champs but it is hard on them
DeleteMy book also deals with Germans and war coming to my characters town. The only thing is my character is not treated as well.
DeleteMy characters also have man vs. man conflict between them. My characters on the other hand, don't handle it like champs.
DeleteIs ivan a jew thats being held by the germans
DeleteI've read that book before and I would agree, I think the main conflict is person vs. society.
DeleteIn my book a small white scar there are many differnent conflicts that take place in my book. Some of the conflicts are that they have to face is while Will and Denny are out riding in the mountains and Denny gets bit by a rattle snake and Will has to try to get the snake from wrapped around him. After getting the snake off him they go off riding to the rodeo and Denny's bite gets infected and they are trying to find a clean spring to wash it out with so they could wrap it up. One of the nights while outside camping in the woods there is a rain and hail storm and they have to cross a river and the river is so high and the water is moving so fast Denny falls off and almost drowns. Denny gets really sick and they are trying to make there way back home to get Denny help.
ReplyDeletein the book im reading there is multiple conflicts between all 3 kids and their different lives.
Deleteyour book seems really interesting and i feel the conflicts make it so you want to read more.
DeleteI am reading the book Old Yeller. The conflict in my book woukd probably have to be when the dog comes to the cabin and they dont know where it came from. So they take the dog in and the dog begins to eat the deer that travis shot to feed the family. Travis startes to hate the dog until the dog saves his life when a bear trys to hurt travis and the dog saves him and ever since the he loves the dog and he felt bad for the way he treated it
ReplyDeleteIn my book there isnt a dog but creatures and simular as yours know one knows where they came from
Deletethat sounds like a good book that book seems like a book i would read
DeleteIn the book The dark tower: The Gunslinger, The gunslinger is following a person called the man in black and every time he gets close to the man in black, something happens which him to get farther away from the man in black. the conflict between the gunslinger and the man in black is that the man in black must have done something to the gunslinger for him to want to catch and kill him. the gunslinger handles his problem by trying to keep moving so he can catch up to the man in black. the conflict in this book keeps the story going. this book never gets boring because of the conflict in the story. the conflict hasnt been resolved yet but it is getting really close.
ReplyDeletemy book is similar in the way that the conflict is still on going
Deleteand is keeping the book very interesting
In my book The Hideout the conflict is person vs. self I would say. Jeremy is trying to survive on his own, but at the same time knows he should go to his uncles and live there. He thinks his parents would be proud of him being self sufficient on his own but, I think his parents want him to be at his uncles where he is safe.
ReplyDeleteIn my book there is some of the same conflicts where he has to battle himself.
Deleteour books are kinda the same the parents in the books are pushing the kids to what they don't feel good about
DeleteMy book is kinda the same cause my character is trying to survive in a different way by trying to make a NFL football team.
DeleteI am reading the book Prisoner B-3087 and the conflict in my book is Yanek is trying to survive multiple concentration camps. Most of the conflict is person against himself because most of this is mental and he needs to take care of himself and not look out for anyone and take care of yourself. One thing that is involved is food him not having enough food and almost starving to death is a conflict he has to face. The conflict adds to the story line because he does clever things to get food.This conflict is resolved because the allies come and free him from the concentration camp.
ReplyDeleteMy book is also about about taking care of himself and trying to survive.
DeleteThe main character would have one hard life trying to survive each concentration camp. How long did it take for the allies to come and clear the concentration camp? How many different camps did he have to go to?
DeleteMy novel also has lots of person vs. self conflicts. Yours sounds more life and death. Mine is just about love
DeleteMy book is kind of similar because it deals with a lot of death.
DeleteMy book is similar because it has a lot of person to self conflicts and its more of a mental mind set than anything.
DeleteMy book also has a lot of survival in it because Nadia is trying to survive the forgetting.
DeleteI am reading Wuthering Heights and there many many conflicts. Mr. Lockwood faced a person vs. paranormal in the beginning when he stayed at Wuthering Heights. He was stuck staying there because of the snow storm, a person vs. weather conflict. The main conflict so far is person vs. person. The characters like Hindley, Heathcliff, Catherine, and Nelly are constantly getting into fights and finding trouble between one another. This main struggle has led to Heathcliff's disappearance and Hindley's alcoholism after Frances's death. They are not one big happy family and it is creating lots of conflicts. This main conflict is the whole backbone of the novel, besides Catherine's person vs. self struggle, choosing who she should marry.
ReplyDeletein my book the main character faces a lot of problems with him self but he starts a band and kind of gets into a fight with his friends so there are many kinds of conflicts in my book not just person vs person
DeleteIn the book, A Thousand Acres, there is a main conflict that is going on. The father Larry is wanting to split up his land to his 3 daughters and give them 33% of the land. The youngest daughter wants nothing to do with it though. She doesnt want all the drama that would be involved in dividing it up. So far there is no solution to the problem and the main character, GInny doesnt really react to it much because they are not making such a big deal about it yet. I hope the problem gets resolved soon, but it also is what is making up the whole story so far.
ReplyDeleteBoth my book and your book have conflicts that deal with a agricultural situation in some way. But i think your book is interesting and i can relate to it in some ways.
DeleteI am reading the book Foul by Paul Hoblin. There is one main conflict in the book and that is between the main character and his adoptive parents. The main characters name is Rhino and Rhinos parents died when he was 5 in a car crash, or so he thought but now at the age of 16 he finds out his adoptive parents have been lying to him and it turns out his real dad killed his real mom and has been in jail, but Rhinos real dad just escaped jail and now we wait to find out what happens next.
ReplyDeletemy book is similar because all 3 kids are adopted and has all 3 different ways they have been living.
DeleteAre books are kinda the same with your book your characters parents died and in my book my character his dad left him and he is trying to prove himself to his dad who is still out there.
DeleteMy kinda has the same conflict, they both have the adoptive kid try too find there parents/parent.
DeleteIm reading the book stoner and spaz. Its about to people with very different personality that somehow end up being friends. There are many conflicts in this book. I think the main conflict in this book is the so called "spaz" trying to overcome his fears of bullies and come to school without his one and only friend that is not with him. He eventually over comes his fears when he meets the so called "stoner" friend.
ReplyDeleteI am reading the book snow bound and he has a few conflicts just in a short amount of time when he finds the dog he has to hide it so he runs away trying to find the dog and on the way of finding the dog he steels a car and gets it suck in the middle of no where and has to survive a whole week with no food or anything.
ReplyDeletei am reading the "This is the day" by Tim Tebow he had to go threw a lot during his childhood his father was always on the road working and is dad always told him just to keep doing what your doing keep being the best you can be. Tim always tried to be the best he could be and i feel like that was a really hard struggle because he went to Florida to help out with hurricane Irma and he witnessed a bunch of destruction. I feel like Tim Tebow is a super motivational and is always trying to helpout every chance he gets.
ReplyDeletei am reading the book the perk of being a wall flower and he goes throw a lot as a kid and has to go into highschool with no friends.
DeleteI read the book Harris and Me. There is not a lot of big conflicts in the story but there are some. Most of them are person vs nature. Because Harris and him just get in fights with the animals. They get kicked by the horses, cows and pigs but they could resolve the conflicts but they think its fun. The conflict keeps the story interesting.
ReplyDeleteI am reading monument 14 and my book is also person vs nature. The characters in my book have to deal with natural disasters rather than animals. they also have to deal with eachother making it person vs person as well.
DeleteIn my book the characters are also dealing with struggles with animals and trying to survive with the horses out in the woods while going to the rodeo.
DeleteMy book is also has a conflict with nature because Eric is trying to live off the land but he is having trouble finding food
DeleteI am reading the book Wildlife and the main conflict in the story is when Erik runs away from home. He runs away from his grandparents house because they want to return the dog he found to its owner and he doesnt want that so he runs off. While hes out in the woods he is soon to realize that its not as easy as he was expecting. He runs out of food and is not having any luck hunting. He is trying to improve his shot so he has a chance of surviving.
ReplyDeletemy book has a similarity on that my character all so takes action immediately in when the choch plays dirty he walks off right then and there
Deletei am reading the book the perks of being a wall flower. it seems like its a good book that i would like to read
DeleteI'm reading the book Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi. There are a lot of conflicts in this book. Its all about the murder of Sharon Tate and 7 other people. There isn't really a certain point of view for the book. It goes between alot of detectives and other people involved in the cases. The conflict gets kind of resolved when all the murderers get caught and go to jail.
ReplyDeletehow do you like your book and is it getting better as your reading or is it starting to slow down
DeleteSounds like a very interesting book. What is the reasoning for the murder and all of the conflict?
Deletei am reading the book the perks of being a wallflower and i like it because its about a kid in our grade and in high school he goes throw tuff times going into highschool his best friend kills him self and has no friends now after he finds new friends but he starts goimg to partys and doing bad things.
ReplyDeletethe book im reading is Fat Kid Rules the World and the conflict between the main character is a person vs person conflict the main conflict is that the main character is over weight and doesn't really fit in anywhere so he is trying to start a band to try and fit in. he faces the conflict by trying to get good and playing the drums and become well known so this it helps the book because it is a part of the main plot and we see him try to better him self through out the book
ReplyDeleteI am reading monument 14 and my book could also be person vs person because they all need to deal with the other people stuck there and because of this there are a lot of fights that happen.
DeleteMy book can be person vs person because the kids in the gang believe that he has to be a part of every activity. and he doesnt want to do all the crimes
DeleteMy book also has a person vs person conflict because it is an argument between the father and the 3 daughters about their land. It also can be a person vs nature as well.
DeleteMy book "Football Champ" is mainly Man vs. Society. Troy tells a reporter about him being able to read a defense and know what they are going to run. The reporter makes him sound bad and now everyone thinks the Atlanta Falcons are using him to cheat. Also Seth Halloway is called a "juicer" because he takes a vitamin shot that the reporter says is steroids. They both handle the conflict by not talking to anyone else in the press and staying very hidden and quiet. Without the conflict their is no story. I do not know the outcome of the story yet. But, without the conflict the book would not exist.
ReplyDeletei read this book. it is a great book and the ending gets even better. the book eventually becomes man vs man but i wont spoile why or how
Deletei think i read this book before but i only remeber part of it but it is a good book and i think you like the ending alot.
DeleteThis book sounds like a book i would like to read it sounds like some good conflict is present throughout the whole book i wonder what the outcome will be and why it turns into a man vs. man conflict.
Deletei have read that book before and i really did enjoy that because it was fascinating on how smart he was and how young he was.
DeleteIn my book Allies by Alan Gratz the main character Dee has to deal with storming the beach on D-Day and while storming the beach he has to deal with person vs person because he is fighing the germans to survive the day and he also deals with his own personal thoughts like why hes storming the beach. i finished the book and i loved every second of the book and i highly recommend the book.
ReplyDeleteHow does this conflict add to the story?
Deletethe conflict is the story because he has to storm d-day and attack the germans. without the conflict the writer might as well not have wrote anything in his life.
DeleteThis sounds like a great book what is the outcome of the conflict i wonder how does it end does he win does he die does he survive? i guess i will have to read to find out.
Deleteyour book sounds good and it sounds like it is never boring.
DeleteOur books are very similar because my main character is also fighting with the Germans. My book also has a lot of detail and i would also recommend reading it.
DeleteMy book is similar because my book is about a prisoner of war who goes through internal struggles as well as external like your main character.
DeleteI am reading Monument 14. The main conflict in my book is survival. This is the conflict because as a group they need to survive against the outside. There were a bunch of different disasters that happened causing a chemical to spill. This is the conflict because if they come in contact with the outside different blood types react differently. Dean the main character handles being inside well because his blood type makes him crazy. All this is the main plot of the book; surviving against the outside. The conflict is never resolved in this book it is just dealt with.
ReplyDeleteI also have conflict about survival against the outside. I think our books are similar because war is like a disaster to a county
Deletemy book is also about survival because the main characters are in a desert with no water and are now climbing mountains with no water.
DeleteMy book is also about surviving outside. But mine isnt about a war. Its about surviving off the land.
DeleteMy book is about survival too. Most of the survival is in the boot camp and getting use too the rules. However some of it is surviving outside after something happens to Garrett.
DeleteI am also reading monument 14 and i would agree by saying survival because its all they can really do at this point.
DeleteMy book is resilience and Tom is in a person vs. self conflict because he is beat up and hurt really bad during the clean up efforts of 911 but he keeps pushing on and on and on because he wants to continue to help the united states recover from this disaster even if it means hurting his own body during his work. It adds excitement to the story line and a since of the strength he must have to continue to push his body to the limits for the better of New York and the untied states.
ReplyDeleteIn my book slaughter house five the main character billy is fighting himself and the germans during ww2 and life. the fight with himself is because he does not want to fight during the war and that all the stuff he is seeing during the war is messing him up. His conflict with the germans is because he is fighting them and they are continusly trying to kill him. These conflicts are pushing the book further along because they are all leading up to the main point of the book.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds very interesting. Definitely not like anything else.
DeleteIs the main character alone or is he in a squad to fight the Germans. If he was in a group it would be easier to get through the internal struggle.
Deleteim reading running loose and my main conflict is a person vs society
ReplyDeletethat is what he think is right vs what the school thinks is right like on race and doing the right thing . my example is the coach ledneck decides to play dirty and take out the black kid on the opposing team . he handle this by not contributing to this at all and quits the football team with no plan to go back. this changes where the store gose . this has not been fully resolved we don't know if ledneck is still playing dirty but the out come is that he will not play for that team.
In my book Helter Skelter it is a person vs society. It's Charles Manson vs the world.
Deletethe book im reading is far from the tree and the conflict between the main character is person vs. person. one of the main character is having trouble being a teenager and growing up. she ended up getting pregnant was to early and has lots to deal with by herself. no one would talk to her and she lost everything, she lost the relationship with her dad and he boyfriend left her. she just felt like all she had to look forward in life was her baby. she just wants to give up and wish she was a better child and didn't become a mother at a young age.
ReplyDeleteMy book is kind of the same thing because Moritz the main character doesnt know what to with his friends.
DeleteI can see that your character and my character are somewhat facing similar conflicts. Adeline the main character in my book is also feeling lonely, her stepmother abuses her a lot mentally and sometimes physically. She does have people she can go to, to comfort her but they can't do anything about the situation. Also her parents kept moving her to different schools where she has to live in there, and the current school she's in is getting hard on Adeline to adjust that she doesn't make any friends and her family never visits her or sends any gifts. So through out the schools she has been moving to, she has been lonely and she's fighting to no let that affect her as much.
Deletewe are reading the same book and i also agree with this grace defiantly has the biggest conflict in this book.
DeleteI am reading the book Kiplings Choice by Geert Spillbeen and the conflict that's happening in my book is person vs. person. He is at war in Germany and there are medics discussing what they should do with john because he is severely injured. They thought about saving him or throwing him in the ditch. They decided to throw him in the ditch, and later he wakes up to the same medic dead next to him. My character really doesn't really have any conflict because he cant speak. Throughout the story he tries to talk but cant because his jaw is gone, but the text shows emotions that he wants to say in his head. I think John wants to be saved but everyone thats looked at him say hes to far gone. This conflict adds to the story because i fell like someone is going to walk by and decide to save him.
ReplyDeleteI could not imagine how hard that would be to be in your main character's shoes.
DeleteThe book I'm reading is My Brothers Shadow. The conflict that Moritz the main character has is that he is in a gang and wants to participate but his morals are better than that and he could not steal something from someone. This book is a person vs society and person vs self. Because the war is a conflict against another society and that sort of thing. Its person vs self because he tries to figure out what to do because it always seems like he has at least 2 options and they could always get in trouble for either of them. Part of the conflict is he turns the gang that he is in and the Kaiser is defeated so the conflict in society is over.
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of like my main character because he always holds back his anger because he knows it will get him into trouble.
DeleteIn my book Wonder there is a conflict with a kids named Jillian. Picks on August because he looks different from the other kids. he also was born with a different face. the way August handles it is for the most tie ignoring what they have to say but going home upset. the out come is its going t make him a strong person because he will have to deal with it for the rest of his life.
ReplyDeleteI saw that movie a few years ago and it was really good, let me know if its good because maybe i will read that book next!
DeleteI read this book and watched the movie and i hated seeing august get bullied. I also feel like this is a big conflict.
DeleteMy characters in my book are also looked down upon by society because of their wings. They have to stay in hiding so they don't get turned over to the government as freaks.
Deletei am reading one fat summer and the conflict in this book is the struggles of being fat in the summer and how it is hard to do his job because he is fat. he just pushes through the pain and embarrassment of being fat.this book is all about the struggles of being fat.
ReplyDeleteour books are kinda the same they deal with having pain but not in the same spot and not in the same way but the kid deals with other people being man to him everyday.
Deletei am reading the book Old Yeller. its a very interesting book and there are character problems through out the entire book. i would say there is more person vs nature scenarios in this book. with the animals attacking the family or the boy. if you count the dog as a person witch i gusse i would there is a lot of person vs person conflict because hes always yelling at that dog for stealing that corn or there dinner. but the dog makes up for his minor stealing habits buy getting rid of unwanted animals off there property
ReplyDeletein the Foxman he is trying to survive against animals too
DeleteI am reading the book Football Champ. The main character is facing a big challenge, of being a super young kid that is calling plays on a NFL football team. All the other teams are making fun of him and saying he's to young for what he is doing. Then he is trying to get on a NFL football team to play for real and stop helping the team out on the sideline. He is blocking everyone out that is saying that he is not going to make it and just keep pushing.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading the book A Dogs Journey by W. Bruce Cameron. the biggest conflict in the book is between Gloria and Clarity mostly because of the dog Molly. The conflict is mostly because clarity wants Molly and her mom Gloria doesn't want anything to do with a dog. Clarity made some crazy decisions that may not have been the best but her mom also i feel was a little to dramatic person an took this out of proportion. After fighting and going to court she is easing up a little.
ReplyDeleteim readng brians winter, and the conflict in the book is man vs nature. the main character in my book is basically trying to survive in the wilderness. the character handles this pretty well because hes been in the wild for a few months now. this conflict adds to the story because its what the book is about
ReplyDeletehey my book is man vs nature too it makes for an interesting read
DeleteI am reading the book Dirt Road Home by Watt Key and the conflict is mostly person vs. society. I say that because the conflict is Hal being in jail. Hal is just trying to keep to himself and do his time and get out, but the two gangs that are trying to get him to join them are making it very hard to do so because they keep threatening him. When he ignores the threats, they are followed by him being beaten up. He keeps having meetings with his dad who is saying that he will be out very soon, so he must just keep powering through.
ReplyDeleteI read Boot Camp and the biggest conflict in the book is person vs society. The main character Garrett has to face the people at the camp and his family for putting him there. The biggest problem Garrett is facing is the way Boot Camp is ran. He is facing the new rules and the staff at boot camp. He is at the lowest level and is ways trying to be the smart guy. I read the entire book and the ending is radical. You have too read it.
ReplyDeleteMy book is somewhat like that brave new world heard of it? its a good book but there are rules in this book that people don't like to follow even at the highest level or class.
DeleteThe main characters in my book also face a person versus society conflict. They are constantly on the run so they don't get discovered and become outcasts compared to the rest of society.
DeleteMy books main conflict is also person vs. society but my book also had more abuse of power from the government.
DeleteI am reading the book brave new world theirs really no conflict but just a little drama like high school drama but with adults. The book i feel like is more about class like Alpha, Beta, delta, gamma and epsilon now even in the same class they judge each other which could be who has had sex more with others or even what they looks like they make fun of this alpha which his name is Bernard hes short and i guess ugly but still wants to do the nasty's with him and that is all the tea so far which is the most important to share.
ReplyDeleteThe book that I am reading I can tell that your character Bernard and my character Adeline are facing the same struggle a little bit. Adeline's stepmother who is called Niang, makes fun of her and calls her ugly and stupid. Although Adeline never pays much attention to her looks the words Niang tells her doesn't affect her but they still hurt. Adeline tries to stay positive because she knows someday in the future she's going to become successful even with Niang trying to bring her down.
DeleteIn the book Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment the conflict is both person versus society and person versus person. The kids are against society in the fact that they are hiding their wings and powers from the rest of society. The kids are also fighting the corrupt laboratories that gave them their powers. The main characters deal with these conflicts by being constantly on the run and by not building connections with anyone. It gives them a reason to stick together rather than just live out their lives on their own.
ReplyDeleteIn my book it is also Person vs. Society
DeleteIn my book Monument 14 the biggest struggle would be society v.s. society. The reason this is the biggest conflict is because an earthquake destroyed a norad facility and leaked compounds out into the air. The compounds make for some very dangerous situations whether you turn into a raging killer, psychotic, or blister up and die. I think my characters do a good job handling themselves and treating their symptoms the way they should.
ReplyDeleteWOW! This book seems like a very interesting read, i like that kind of stuff it reminds me of this show on Netflix called Daybreak were these facility's explode or something like that and turns all these parents into like zombies and the kids are left unaffected, but it seems like a good book with a lot a drama and seems like its not boring.
DeleteI am reading Captured by Alvin Townley. The conflict is person vs self between the main character and his sanity. The main character gets Captured by North Vietnam and tortured. When Jerry gets sent to a dark room away form the other prisoners he begins to lose it. He started to talk to a beam of light and started to have a mental breakdown. He got threw this by staying true to a Code of Conduct. Every military personnel must learn the Code of Conduct because if they get captured they cannot say anything that would break theses rules. Jerry just thought about the rules to focus his mind on something. This conflict adds to the story because it shows what Jerry went through, not just physically but mentally as well. The conflict is ongoing from Jerry being in solitary to him getting tortured.
ReplyDeleteI am reading the book "Falling Leaves" and the main character who is Adeline is having conflict with her family. Two of her siblings bully her to show who's in charge and her stepmother is making Adeline look like a bad child in front of her dad's eyes. Adeline has had handle the abuse from her stepmother pretty maturely, she obeys and stays quiet. But the thing is that she doesn't defend herself she basically submits to her stepmother's authority. Niang who is the stepmother likes to control and have power over people, even the husband is so blinded by Niang's manipulation that he fails to realize how his own children are being affected negatively by this. Even as a grown up Adeline's parents still manage to control her life in some way and this conflict still hasn't been solved.
ReplyDeleteim reading the book Among The Hidden and the main conflict in my book is person vs. society because Luke is an illegal 3rd child. And he is not allowed to interact with anyone outside of his house and the only other human being he has seen besides his family was a homeless man on their doorstep begging for food. The conflict of not being able to be seen by others has no been resolved in the book so far.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading the book Far From the Tree and i think the biggest conflict in this book has to deal with Grace. It is defiantly person vs. self because she is a high school junior that got pregnant and is just now meeting her 2 siblings she didn't know she had. Grace handles this problem by hiding it from her "new" siblings and avoiding all topics on the ex-boyfriend. This conflict adds a lot to the storing line because it can be repeatable.

ReplyDeletein the book Foxman the conflict is person vs nature. because Carl and his cousin are lost and true to survive in the woods. and while dealing with dangerous animals and to survive the elements. carl handles himself well he is scared only cause he has never been in this situation before. and the whole story is based on him trying to find his way home so thats why it effects the novel.
In the book The Forgetting, the conflict is between the main character and the council. The main character, Nadia, doesn't forget anything where as almost all of the rest of the town forgets everything they know. She just figured out how everyone is forgetting everything and now she is trying to stop it. Nadia faces this situation by trying to find out how the forgetting happens and then stop it. this conflict is the entire plot of this story. I think Nadia will find a way to stop the forgetting from happening and she will save the city.
