Week three of Tomorrow when the war began

Journal entrie of Ellie:

From the minute the planes passed over my head I knew something was up, something was wrong! When we arrived home to a deserted town we were shocked and surprised. Every home seemed abandoned or ransacked. Our dogs where left for dead, only one was barely alive. I couldn't believe what was happening. We had been thrown into a new world were everything we did was a risk, ever discison we made was life threatening. We had to defend for ourselves. At first it was too emotion for me to do anything but I soon learnt that I had to step up. For my group of friends and also everyone that is trapped in the show grounds. I had to become a leader.

Moving on Futher into the book

The characters inTomorrow when the war began are changeing fast. ellie and her grioup of friends have been through into a new atmosphere in which they are not use to. the planes flying over them one night was only the start of what was to come next for them. Having all their friends and family locked up in a showground by enemy soldiers (terroists). This has distressed the group in a huge manner for this experience is out of the normal. How the group will move on and deal with this situation will be something ill look forward to. Slow start to the book but its getting much better now. 

Tomorrow When The War Began

Tomorrow when the war began starts off in a strange manner. The main character (Ellie ) is writing about how she had been selected to right her friends story. I thought this was a strange entrance to a novel and I found it quite irrelevant but once the story kicked off it got better. It introduced all the characters well and explain them and their parents. It also set up the story for later in the novel. If I could change anything I'd get rid of that introduction.
