Charmed Thirds Megan Mccafferty
In my book, Charmed thirds, by Megan Mcafferty, one prediction about what i think will happen next is that Jessica and Marcus will make up, and get back together. Jessica confesses to Marcus that she cheated on him, while she was at college in New York. Marcus take the blow pretty bad, but Jessica is so determined to get him back. She writes to him everyday. Marcus begins to write her one worded postcards, and eventually, these postcards begin to make sense. Marcus seems like he's warmimng up to Jessica, and that he forgives her.

Call to the Wild
Jack London
In my book Call to the Wild, by Jack London, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Buck was stolen to become a sled dog. I believe this because the people who stole him were yelling the term “Mush”. They were also using the term “Ho”. Both these terms are used as sled dog commands. In addition, the two people referred to each other as “comrade.” this is a popular term for people in Alaska and Russia, were dog sledding takes place. This makes the story make more sense because Buck was a strong healthy dog. I can now see why he was kidnapped. This is what I think will happen.

Splinter Cell:Checkmate
Tom Clancy
In my book Splinter Cell:Checkmate, by Tom Clancy, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Sam Fisher is going to diffuse the ship, because the book is coming to an end and Fisher got this far I'm pretty sure he will diffuse the ship. He is also highly trained and is very good at what he does. I also think he should get rewarded because this was a huge mission and he handled it very well.

Among the imposters
Margaret Haddix
In my book, Among the Imposters,by Margaret Haddix,one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Luke will get into real trouble for going outside. In the school that Luke attends students are not allowed to go outside. I think that a hall monitor will catch him trying to leave. If he is caught he risks blowing his cover. You see, Luke is not even allowed to live because he the third child in his family. Therefore, he should not be attending this school.

Heat: By:Mike Lupica
In my book Heat, by Mike Lupica, one prediction that I can make is that people are going to find out that Mike and his brother are living alone without a parent. I think this is going to happen because the coaches in Mike's baseball league are trying to get his birth certificate, he cannot get it without his father. Also because Mike is starting to turn some heads with his pitching and more and more people want to meet his father.Even people like Mike's coach are starting to get suspicious, Mike knows that this is one of those things that you can't hide forever. The only reason that Mike does't want people to find out is because him and his brother are still considered kids and they don't want to be split up.

Splinter Cell:Fallout
Tom Clancy
In my book, Splinter Cell:Fallout, by Tom Clancy, one prediction that I can make about what will happen next is that Sam Fisher will take out the guards surrounding Legard's house.Then he will sneak inside the house and kill Legard. I'm predicting this because Legard is supposedly responsible for killing Fisher's brother. Fisher has been sneaking around Legard's house for quite some time now planning out his approach into the house. He has been taking as much time as possible to make sure he leaves no trail of his presence. And also to make sure that it is done right on the first try. He wouldn't want this to be his first breakline, or compromised mission. Up until now every mission has been a complete success for Fisher.

Heaven
Angela Johnson
In my book, Heaven, by Angela Johnson, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Shoogy will get adopted by Marley’s parents. Shoogy and Marley met at Ma’s Superette, a place that Marley’s mother runs. Marley liked Shoogy right away. In the book Marley says,” The reason we became and stayed friends was that she wasn’t like anybody in her family and like everybody in mine”. Shoogy quickly connected to Marley’s parents and enjoyed telling them stories about alien abductions. Her own parents would never listen to her. She considered her family “perfect”. They all looked like mannequins with perfect heads and teeth and they lived in the most perfect house in town. Shoogy wasn’t like that. She wore frosted lipstick, cutoff T-shirts and knee high rain boots wherever she went. One day Shoogys’ parents came home with a brand-new car. She than kicked the front of the car and ran down the street. I think Shoogy was mad because her parents didn’t include her in the decision. They just buy things when they feel like it. All these reasons lead me to believe that somewhere in this story, Shoogy will get adopted my Marley’s parents

Looking For Alaska by John Green
In my book, Looking For Alaska by John Green, one prediciton about what I think will happen next is that Pudge and Cornel will continue on their search to find out exactly what was going through Alaska's mind the night she drove off franitically. So far they have come up with the idea that she was on her way to her boyfriend's house. She, at the time had been cheating on him with Pudge. Now he’s left feeling guilty for her death. Pudge is coming up with the assumption that Alaska may have committed suicide that night. I don't believe that she had intentionally planned on dying that night. For one thing, she hadn't shown any true signs throughout the story that would lead me to believe she was suicidal.

How it's Done
by Christine Kole MacLean
In my book How it’s Done, by Christine Kole MacLean, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is Grace and Michael’s marriage will end up falling apart, because there is a big age difference between these two people. Grace is just finishing up high school and starting to think about college. Michael is already so involved in his career. I think that they are both at different stages in their lives and their marriage will suffer because of this. I also think their marriage will fall apart because Grace is always expecting the worst of Michael. She has accused him of cheating on her numerous times. I don’t think a marriage could possibly work if both partners do not trust each other. Another reason I predict this is because Grace and Michael are already getting sick of each other. They have only been married for a few months. There are so many reasons that lead me to believe that Grace and Michael’s marriage will end up falling apart.

The Voice of the Night
Dean Koontz
In my book, The Voice of the Night, by Dean Koontz, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Colin will get into very serious trouble that will change his life. I think this will happen because of his best friend Roy. This is because Roy has a reputation for being a troublemaker. Roy doesn't seem to be afraid of anything and he doesn't care about others as much as he should. I believe that it is likely that Roy will force Colin to do something very dangerous and this will end up changing Colin forever. The reason I think this is that Colin doesn't defend himself and is bossed around by Roy. Colin lets this happen because he envies Roy and wants to be just like him.
Colin believes that doing what Roy wants will get him more respect. However, he doesn't get the respect he wants and I think he will realize this soon.

The Book of Mordred
Vivian Vande Velde
In my book, The Book of Mordred, Alayna, Mordred, and Galen were on a mission to rescue Kiera, Alayna’s daughter. However, Galen began to act strangely ever since the wizard Halbert saved his life after the unprovoked attack by the wizards own knights. He was pale, and clammy, and wasn’t himself, which the wizard insisted was normal. I don’t trust the wizard though, because it seems that Galen was not himself he awoke. I think that the wizard will prove to be untrustworthy, and posses Galen to turn against Alayna, Morded, and Kiera. Since the Kiera has some magical ability, I think Halbert, with the help of the possessed Galen, will kidnap Kiera and use her power to make himself stronger. I think that they will go to the castle where Kiera was really being held, and get back Kiera. I think that Halbert will then set Galen on Mordred and Alayna, who will be forced to fight and perhaps kill Galen.

Into the Wild
Jon Krakauer
In my book, Into the Wild, by Jon Krakauer, one prediction I can make about what I think will happen next is that Chris might decide to go on another dangerous adventure somewhere of far distance and great danger maybe even deadly. He might go somewhere like the Rocky Mountains. I believe this may happen because Chris is a big risk taker. He is always up for a challenge. Chris sticks to his ideas. He isn't one to be talked out of an idea. Once he has his mind set on something he is most likely going to do it. So i wouldn't be surprised if he did something crazy and daring like going to the Rocky Mountains.

Period 8
Desperation by Stephen King
In my book Desperation by Stephen King, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that they (main characters) are going to get out alive, but (since I am almost done) I think it is going to end like that some other character goes to the desert and gets stopped by a cop, and gets framed again and that’s it because come on it is Stephen king. I read many of his books most of them end happily then some guy goes back to the same area and there he is again. This is also how most horror movies and books end, the main characters get out and survive, then another random character goes in there for some apparent reason and then the thing or whatever strikes him or something or it appears again. What else can I say.

Eden Born
Nick Sagan
In my book Eden born by nick sagan one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that they will all split and make civilization and the best one will last and the other one will be destroyed by the monster because one group of people are smarter in what to do in there life.
In my book "dreamland" by Sarah Dessen, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that Caitlin will runaway in search of Cassie. One reason that I predict this is going to happen is because Cassie has only been interested with talking to Caitlin. During their conversations clues were dropped as to where Cassie has been the past six months. She is sworn to secrecy and has no intention on telling her mother where her sister has been all this time. Also Caitlin recently dropped the cheerleading team as well as her photography class she was taking with her mother. All that is known right now is that Cassie has a job, is with her boyfriend, and is currently at someplace thats always sunny. But you still have to wonder why did Cass leave in the first place? Was it because of stress or did she start to feel the real pressure of college? Whatever the reason was I feel that Caitlin is going down that same path and will eventually end up where Cass is.

The Boy Who Saved Baseball
John H. Ritter
In my book, The Boy Who Saved Baseball, by John H. Ritter, one prediction that I can make about what will happen next is that Tom will make sure the the consructors and Doc don't knock down the baseball field down by Tom's house. The baseball field is called Lucky Strike field which is around the corner from where Tom lived. Doc was the owner of Lucky Strike Park and he was the the man who wanted it to be knocked down to built a golf course. When Tom heard this he was very sad because many great games have gone on thier and it is a memorable field. Since Tom loves the game of Baseball and goes to all the games I think Tom is going to persuade Doc from telling the constructors from knocking down the field.

Fire Bell in the Night
Geoffrey Edwards
In my book Fire Bell in the Night, by Geoffrey Edwards, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that John will be treated poorly at the trial by the southerners. I think this because of the foreshadowing shown in the conversation between John and Arthur. During this conversation, Arthur gives John, the reporter, information on the trial he is reporting about. He also warns John that because he is from the north, he is an outsider and will not be accepted, foreshadowing that he will be treated poorly. Arthur may feel that John is not going to be accepted because he himself is a northerner and is not accepted. Northerners are probably not accepted because of the growing conflict between the north and south about the issue of slavery. John will probably expect to be treated poorly due to this warning, and try his best to get a good story anyway. He will probably attempt to make allies that can help him discover information about the trial. He will definitely have an interesting time covering this story.

Midnight
Dean Koontz
In my book Midnight, by Dean Koontz, one prediction I can make about what will happen next is that somehow Chrissie is going to run into the cop Sam. I think this because of the way the author is writing by going back and forth between each persons story. Right now Chrissie is hiding out in a sewer where she will sleep for the night in to evade her pursuers. Sam had just went out to eat in the town of Moonlight Cove. At first he was thinking on how he may move to this town when he retires until he notices something unusual about the townspeople. The majority of the people in the restaurant and just ferociously eating and not speaking to one another. This is leading him on that something unusual is happening in the town. This is also perfect because if Chrissie runs into him while seeking help he may believe her if she tells him her parents were transformed into a beast like creature. This will also be a good person to protect her because he has a gun with him at all times. Another brief prediction I have to offer is that pretty shortly, Sam will be encountering some of these monstrosities, maybe after even leaving the restaurant on his return to his motel.

Tell me Your Dreams
By sidney Sheldon
In my book, Tell Me Your Dreams, by Sidney Sheldon, one prediction about what I think will happen next is that Ashlley Patterson one of the main atagonists in the story will be heading to jail. The FBI has just realized that this girl is a serial killer that just changes her idendity. The head of the cases has found this out. They discovered this because the DNA and fingerprints was the same at all the spots. So finally they were able put two and two together and find out who it was. I believe they will find her and throw her in prison because they know the state. Also they know what she looks like. So it is inevidible that she won't be caught due tto all the technologies available to the FBI. Even if the women evades to another country they will be able to find her. That is why I believe she will be spending the rest of her life in jail soon enough.
