"Montag, hold on!" The moth brushed Montag's ear. "He's muddying the waters!"
"Oh, you were scared silly," said Beatty, "for I was doing a terrible thing in using the very books that you clung to, to rebut you on every hand, on every point! What traitors books can be! You think they're backing you up, and they turn on you. Others can use them too, and there you are, lost in the middle of the moor, in a great welter of nouns and verbs and adjectives..."
This was one of the passages in the book that I thought was interesting. I also, agree with Captain Beatty. Books are not for one person alone, and can be used by people all over the world anytime, in the most unexpected times. If you used public resources such as books, then you should expect that they could have been used by other people.

Gushing enthusiasm for burning, but subdued by Clarisse,
Unlikely, and kind of man you see the least
Yes, Guy Montag, our protagonist of this piece.
Melancholic and Depressing,
Optimistic?
Not at all. Violence, despair fill our book to the brim.
Terrifying image of the future,
Antagonist tries to persuade, into his trap.
Goodness me, a flare of hope has appeared. After the war, let us hope that it will spread, and finish the book with a happy end.

I like how you wrote second part of your entry. I think it was a brilliant idea. Your poem not only describes Montag but also summarizes the entire story. Excellent! From reading your poem, I can clearly see the mood. I love how you ended your poem.
"...After the war, let us hope that it will spread, and
finish the book with a happy end."
Your ending is exactly the way the book ended. Good Job! :]
I also agree with Jean. I loved your creative idea! Your acrostic of "Guy Montag" was filled with most of the important scenes or mood of the whole novel. I bet you were the only one who thought of making an acrostic in their post. I like the beginning and ending of the poem; how it starts with the beginning of the story, to the very end.
Wow!Even though I didn't read the book yet, I can predict the mood of the book and think it's going to be very dark and scary. It looks like the book contains a lot of violence. INTERESTING:) I think it was really a good idea to write out an entry like that. creative. Your writing makes me want to read this book. Great job<3
I like the poem you made for Guy Montag! It's very interesting and true. It caught my eyes and made me want to read the whole entry. You described the story in a fun way.
Lucia - this is a very creative and wonderful way to respond to the book. Mrs.Mc
