Reading Blog Entry Number Two 11-24-2014

                      In the book Compound the main characters in the book are Eli Yanakakis, Rex Yankakis, Lexie Yanakskis, Eli's mother, Eddy Yanakakis, Gram, and Terese Yanakakis. Lexie and Terese are Eli's sisters, and Eddy is his twin brother. Rex is Eli's multi billionaire dad who is the richest man in the world, and Gram is his grandma. His mom is his mom obviously. The setting of the book takes place in the massive underground compound that Eli's dad built them to protect them from the nuclear war, but that's what Eli and the rest of his family thinks except for his father who is holding a dark secret. The main conflict of the book is Eli's curiosity, and he wonders why he is down there. Another conflict in the book is the shortage in their food supply which could lead the family to a dark choice. All of this of course is in his dad's plan that the rest of the family doesn't know about. The third  conflict in the book is the fact that Eddy, and Gram died since they didn't get in the compound. Eli later finds out that they are alive. I have no dislikes about this book , and I think it's fantastic my favorite thing about it is the overall setting of it. Another thing I like about is all the twist , and turns it takes.
