The book that I am currently reading is Fancy White Trash by Marjetta Geerling and am on page 52. One of the main characters is Cody. At school he gets bullied but he does nothing to stop it. However he is gay but no one knows except his best friend and next door neighbor Abby Savage. In this way, he has an internal conflict because he keeps it to himself. An external conflict is that two of Abby's sisters and her mom are all pregnant but they all have the same father, or so they think and he just happens to be the mom's husband. The type is from character to character because if the mom finds out it might end up in another divorce and a big problem between the family.
I just finished reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins!
An internal conflict was facing during the book, was when Katniss, the main character, was wondering whether or not to trust Haymitch, previous mentor for the games. Because when Katniss was in the Quarter Quell, Haymitch and Katniss had a deal to save Peeta, another main character, but instead Haymitch just saved Katniss and Peeta was captured by the Capitol and tortured. So when Katniss makes plans to go outside of District 13 and plan assassinations, she wonders whether to trust that Haymitch is on her side, or not.
An external conflict was between the Snow, the president of Panem, and Katniss. Snow wants Katniss dead because she is the leader of the rebellion, which all of the districts are rebelling, so if Katniss dies, the districts would loose hope in fighting. However, Katniss wants to kill Snow because of all her life, how he has treated the country and her district. Also, because he constructed the formation of the horrific annual Hunger Games where innocent children of the districts have to fight to the death.
I have just started reading The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. Even though I am only on the tenth page I can already spot some internal conflicts, Jason, the main character has. Jason has no idea who he is, he wakes up on a bus and everyone around him knows him perfectly except himself. He finds himself not knowing who anyone is or even who he is. An external conflict Jason faces is a Character vs. Society conflict because everyone around him is trying to tell him that they have known him for years even though he hasn’t.
I am currently reading Uglies and am on page 139. One internal conflict the main character Tally faces is whether or not to tell the government about her friend Shay who ran off the night before her operation. Shay is one of the many "uglies" to run off before they are turned pretty, but the government is attempting to track down these missing teenagers and their leader, David, to punish them. Tally does want to become pretty, which would mean turning Shay in, but she doesn't want to ruin the friendship they had before Shay ran off.
One external conflict Tally faces is the influence of her family, friends, and the government. They have all banded together to convince Tally to run off into the world of the unknown to find Shay, but she still isn't sure if she wants to ruin her friendship with Shay, who seems much more real than the people in her small city.
Lena- is this your first time reading Mockingjay? If it is, what did you think of the ending? I'm always curious to hear what people think after they finish. Some people love the ending and some hate it.
I am reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I am currently on page 104. The main character is a boy named Santiago. One of his internal conflicts is whether or not he wants to risk his stable, but boring life to follow his dreams. This dream would be to become a traveler and to find the treasure buried deep within the pyramids in egypt. People said to him if he wants to be a traveler, he must first be a shepherd, and that is what he became. He lives off the coast of spain in an area called Andalusia, so his dream went down the toilet because he had no money to pay for a caravan to take him across the deserts. Even though Santiago has gotten to a point where he does have enough money, he is still conflicted on whether he wants to go. Santiago has a character versus character conflict. This happens between Santiago and a girl named Fatima. The boy finally decided to go on the caravan when he had enough money and he set off into the desert. The caravan stopped at an oasis where he first met Fatima. His friend was on a mission to find the alchemist living in the oasis so Santiago asked a few ladies if they knew of the famous alchemist. They were dressed in all black. They said to him to never talk to the women in black because it was a tradition in their culture symbolizing that those women were married. They said to respect their tradition. The two boys found Fatima and she was not dressed in black, so they decided to talk to her. It was love at first sight for Santiago and Fatima so they talked for a few minutes and then she left. The next day Santiago asked Fatima to marry him! She did not know what to do because they did not even know each other. The conflict is Santiago wants to marry this girl but she is held up on wanted to discover more about him first. He wants her so badly but she is still undecided.
Connor ~ I have noticed a lot of people reading that book. I do not think I will ever read it but I wanted to know how you thought it was. Its sounds really cool!
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, I am on page 75. One internal conflict that Katniss faces is that she blames herself for the dead and dying rebels. She is battling the guilt about what has happened to those close to her and even those that she doesn’t know. Katniss is also battling with the rules and regulations of District 13. This is character vs. society, Katniss is grateful for the safety of the district but the longer she stays the more similarities she sees between this society and the Capitols. Katniss often will rebel against the districts ways by not following the schedule they give her or hiding when they want to speak with her.
I am currently re-reading Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins and I am % done!
Katniss Everdeen, the main character was just picked to go into the Quarter Quell. She was recently in the Hunger Games and won with another tribute from her district. For the Quarter Quell any of the tributes remaining that have won from the previous games are now chosen again to go back and compete again. The conflict would be self vs. society because Katniss feels betrayed by the Capitol and is very frustrated with their actions.
An internal conflict would be when Katniss holds herself responsible for her family and friends being in danger ever since she won the Hunger Games. The Capitol has been "out to get her" because she defied them in the games.
The book I read was HIVE: Escape Velocity by Mark Walden and I finished it in school today. One internal conflict the main character, Otto Malpense faces is the blame he puts on himself when he gets captured along with his friends, Wing, Laura, Shelby and Raven and Nero by Sebastian Trent, the leader of H.O.P.E., which is a self called organization that works for the common good and the people, in an attempt to rescue Nero, the kidnapped head master of HIVE institue. After being captured, Otto's friends are to be killed while Otto and Nero are brought to Number One, the leader of GLOVE, which is an organization of villainous minds. Now Otto blames himself for the close at hand demise of his friends by failing their rescue mission. An external conflict is a person to person conflict between Number One(Overlord) and Otto. Number One, who was actually taken over by Overlord, who is an A.I. that is bent on taking over earth, is now trying to take Otto's body, which turned out to have been made by Overlord in order to be a vessel for him, in replacement of the now feeble old Number One. The conflict is solved by Otto destroying the A.I.
An internal conflict that Katniss has would be whether she really loves Peeta or not. She has a hard time figuring out what feelings are real and what feelings are not real. She has to act like she loves Peeta in front of the cameras because President Snow says that is the only way to keep the districs of Panem from starting an uprising. Peeta has been in love with Katniss since they were little, so it is hard for her to turn him down. But Katniss' best friend, Gale, is in love with her as well, which makes it very hard for her to choose between the two. Her basic internal conflict would be having to essentially decide if she loves Peeta, because she may be in love with Gale.
An external conflict in the book would be character vs. society. The Capitol absolutely hates Katniss because she is the reason the country is falling apart. Throughout the books, Katniss shows the people of the country how awful the Capitol is, running their dystopian society. The things that Katniss does sparks uprisings throughout the districs, and this makes the Capitol very angry, but the President cannot kill her because that would make things twice as bad. In Catching Fire, Haymitch, her mentor, even tells her right before she goes into the 75th Hunger Games to remember who the real enemy is. In this case, he means the Capitol, which reinforces the ultimate conflict of the book.
LSakalla- I have read Mockingjay before, and I am re-reading all of the books since it has been a year since I have read them all. Anyway, I totally understand what you mean when Katniss has to decide whether or not to trust Haymitch. I was surprised when I read it though, because he has always been on her side, so I thought that it was crazy for her to be questioning her trust.
im reading before i fall by lauren oliver and im on page 103. this book is a about a popular girl who's got everything, but then dies. but heres the catch- she wakes up the next morining relives the day she died and and this happens several times. one internal conflict is her trying to decided to tell her friends about it or not, because she thinks they might think shes going crazy. one external conflict she faces is this girl named juliet, who her friends bully and then juliet comes and tells the that there all b**ches and this is person to person conflict.
I am reading Maze Runner by James Dashner I am on page 250
A internal conflict that the main character faces is that he wants to go into the maze but he has to hold himself back and learn about the way of the glade.
a external conflict that he faces is person vs. person and a senior in the glade is mad at him for playing a prank on him while he was in the bathroom
LSakalla6 ~ Mockingjay was my least favorite of the series, TOO SAD!!!
I'm reading The Slippery Slope by Lemony Snicket and I'm on page 23.
An internal conflict the Baudelaire's Violet and Klaus, are having is confusion of their present state and all their unanswered questions that have accumulated at this point in the series of books. Like what is V.F.D.? Where did the quagmires go? Also the moral right and wrong of how to get their little sister, Sunny back from Count Olaf and Esme. An external conflict is the one between the Baudelaire's and Count Olaf who is trying to ruin their lives and steal their fortune. In this book he tried to kill Violet and Klaus, and stole Sunny away with plans to corrupt her and take their fortune when shes old enough. This has been a constant external conflict throughout the entire series. Not just this book.
I am reading the Plains of Passage by Jean Auel. I am on page 81.
An inner conflict that Ayla must face is that she is constantly brought back to her past and the betrayals that she faced. Her pain sometimes leads her to distrust others, but now Jondalar has shown her that people can change and accept one another.
An external is man vs society and a little of man vs man. The problem is that Ayla was orphaned after an earthquake and adopted by a tribe of Cro-Magnons which are very primitive humans. She left this tribe and is traveling with Jondalar, her love interest, to his home, but she is constantly worrying over the more 'evolved' neanderthals that are Jondalar's and her own species. She worries she will shunned because her species feels that the Cro-Magnons are primitive and to be raised by them is highly frowned upon. What makes matters worse is before she left the Cro-Magnon tribe she had had a child and been forced to abandon them. If her species found out about this it could make her chances of being shunned from them even greater.
RFrangie- That sounds like a rather intense book. Tell me if it is good or not, because sometimes those kinds of books I just can't read. Although I am sure it is a higher level of intensity, I tried to read The Color Purple, and after 30 pages I was done. It was just too much, I wasn't ready for that type of book.
I am on page 237 of The Yearling by Marjorie k Rawlings. The main character Jody is having a major internal conflict that a large portion of this book revolves around. Jody is told that his pet deer has to be shot cuz it is being very bad for his family. Jody knows he has to do it to help the family. He fights with himself for a long time until he runs away. An external conflict that he has is a 'man v. man' conflict ytpe. Jody's dad, penny, is a very understanding father to Jody and he is Jody's role model. For his dad to have to enforce and make have to kill his own oet deer was a major conflict. Jody and the deer were inseperable which made it even harder.
Rachel, Wow, I would feel so sorry for Cody. Thats alot to have on ones mind.
Connor, That would mess with my mind so much. Every one else would know me but me!
I just finished the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
An internal conflict in Peeta is that he has thought Katniss loved him throughout the games and he has to face the fact that she doesn't really love him. This is hard for Peeta to handle and doesn't speak to anyone about it and shuts Katniss out.
An external conflict earlier in the novel was that Peeta didn't want to participate in the Hunger Games and realized how terrible the Capitol is for making kids do the games.
I am reading The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis and I am on page 113. An external conflict of the book was between Shift and Puzzle, and the people of Narnia. This occurred when Shift persuaded Puzzle to dress up like Aslan and get the people of Narnia to work at the Calormenes. The conflict is the fact that they are being tricked and are working, giving money to Puzzle. King Tirian soon realizes it’s not Aslan and asks questions. In response the Calormenes torture him. An internal conflict that occurs in the book is between Poggin and himself. Poggin is the only dwarf that still has faith in Aslan, but the other dwarfs don't and shun him. He is the left alone to work for "Aslan" and suffers without his family.
Connor- Oh, that book sounds interesting. Wow that is awesome how you found conflicts in just the first ten pages. Tell me about the book when you finish it.
I am reading Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins, and am currently on page 288. One of the main characters is Katniss, and the internal problem she has faced throughout the entire series, is her love for Peeta. She cannot figure out her emotions about him. At the end of the first book, she was pretending to love him so get sponsors for the Hunger Games to stay alive. But, in the second book (the one I am reading now) she is starting to fall in love with him. An external conflict Katniss is to help Peeta stay alive in the Hunger Games. She is fighting against adults that have been in the Hunger Games before, and are experienced. She has decided that she will save Peeta and protect him, instead of herself, because he looked after her in the first book, and helped her stay alive. Therefore, Katniss is having many problems with not only herself, but the people around her too.
I finished "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" by Mark Haddon. An internal conflict in this book is how Christopher, the main character, has "behavioral problems", possibly autism, which makes it so he cannot do certain things. Examples include not having his food touch, hurting people if they touch them, not understanding sarcasm or emotions, getting dizzy if changes are made to a room, covering his ears and groaning loudly if there are too many new things to look at, and not eating yellow foods. An external conflict portrayed in the book is man vs. man. This includes him and his father because two years ago Christopher's mom cheated on his dad with their neighbor and moved with him to London. Instead of telling Christopher the truth, his dad said that she was in the hospital and later said that she died of a heart attack. Two years later the dad gets frustrated with Mrs. Shears, the woman who's husband left her for Christopher's mom, because he feels as thought she cares about her dog more than Christopher and him. Then he stabs the dog with a garden fork. Christopher finds the dog and decides to solve the mystery of who the murderer was and was writing what happened down in a book. His father did not want him to investigate the murder, so he took the book and hid it in his room. While at work Christopher went into the father's room and found the book along with dozens of letters written by Christopher's mom, addressed to him. When he figured out that his father lied, he confronted him, and the father also tells him that he killed Mrs. Shear's dog. Christopher is then afraid of his father and tries to live with his mom in London using the adress on the letters that she sent. He takes a crazy journey while being tracked down by the police who were sent by his father. He ends up finding his mother, but the father comes to the mother's house and argues with her saying he wants Christopher back.
I'm reading mocking jay by suzanne collins and I am on page36.
Internal- the main character Katniss hastodecide whose loves, gale or petta and science the first book Otha's been an ongoing struggle in her that gets more and more difficult.
External- character vs. character(s) Katniss is hiding from the capital and is also helping to over through president snow. She has to defet him if she wants to stop the games and save petta.
Mtracy6- I love that book and I agree, her love for petta is defiantly a large problem throughout the story
I am reading the Eleventh Plague and I am on page 203. An internal conflict that Stephen faces is that when he is deciding what to do in a certain situation, he tends to think about what his grandpa would have done. He saw his grandpa as a role model. However, he then remembers his dad saying to him one time, "Grandpa is gone." Stephen faces the conflict of not knowing whether to make a decision on his own or to balance the choice with what his grandpa would do. For example, this struggle is displayed when Stephen must decide what to do when Tuttle offers him some books to read based on how to become a more important person in the world.
An external conflict Stephen faces is character vs. society. A plague was released in America wiping out enormous amounts of human life and the landscape. This left many people alive with only one option: survival. Stephen is left alone trying to survive and there are many groups of people out there with the same goal that will attempt to kill him, such as slavers or bandits. Stephen feels he is up against the rest of the world at one point and even after he reaches safety, momentarily, in Settler's landing, after an unfortunate event, he, Jenny, and a few other friends face a large scale fight against a massive group of people. Stephen and his friends must face the conflict and fight for their lives.
Paige- Those conflicts are what I thought were some of the most major conflicts in the book. Especially their confusion, they generally are confused and don't know exactly what to do to get out of Count Olaf's grasp.
The book that I'm reading is The Book Stops Here by Ian Sansom and am on page 135.
The main character Israel is finally getting to visit his home country, England with his co-worker Ted. Ted and Israel run a mobile library in Northern Ireland and are going to England for a conference, "The Mobile Meet". Israel is looking forward to seeing his girlfriend, Gloria, who lives in England, but once he arrives Gloria doesn't show up, though she siad she would, and won't answer the phone. This is one of Israel's internal conflicts because he is torn between thinking Gloria is dumping him or that she was just busy. Ted and Israel get into an argument as to whether or not they should get a new book mobile. This is character to character conflict because they very obviously disagreeing and can't seem to come to an agreement.
I am currently reading the Sixth book of the Lemony Snicket series called the Ersatz Elevator and am one page 91. An internal conflict that the Baudelaire orphans have trying to agree on everything. Whenever they have a decision to make, its difficult because they constantly have conflicting ideas. An external conflict they have is trying to GET ANYONE to realize that Count Olaf is trying to kidnap them. People do not believe them though because he is disguised and is very cunning. In this book he has tricked their new "mother" Esmè into thinking that he is a realtor.
In my book Act of Valor by Dick Couch i am on page 186. At one point the view of an agent is given. It gives his thoughts about his bombings, It tells of his emotional numbness after each bombing. The feeling of killing hundreds of children causes him to feel nothing. yet he feels no guilt for such a abhorrent. But in some situations he feels bad for what he has done, yet he cannot show this or his low profile may be compromised.
CChristensen- I read that book and really enjoyed it. I recentley read the sequel to it and I would suggest it as the next book you read.
Alex: I would hate to have to re-live the day that I die because I would know what was going to happen.. Hopefully though I would be able to avoid it then!
I am reading Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks and I am on page 67. An internal conflict is the book happens with one of the main characters, Alex. Alex is a single father of two young children, and he must bring them to work with him everyday to supervise them, so they don't often receive the attention that they need. Due to this, Alex is never satisfied with his parenting but knows that its what he has to do to make ends meet. However, when his son, Josh, has a near death experience, Alex really starts weighing down on himself to be a better parent. He is very hard on himself. Part of him wants to quit his job to be with the kids but the other part knows that isn't reality, so it causes an internal conflict.
An external conflict in this book is character vs. character, and the specific characters are yet to be revealed. One of Katie (the main character's) friends dealt with an abusive husband, so much that she had to run away and start completely over. He still is looking for her and she knows if he finds her then it will not be good.
You Don’t Know Me Pg.10 By: David Klass In this book there are many internal conflicts, one is that the main character (I do not know his name yet) feels that nobody understands who he is and what he is going through, I also think that he could have a disorder of some sort because he asks a ton of questions and tells you that you don’t know about him. One of the External conflicts is that his father who is not his father abuses him and doesn’t seem to care for him at all. So every day he struggles physically because he is being hit by his father.
I am reading The Lost Hero By Rick Riordan and I am on page 193.
One internal conflict with one of the main Characters, Leo, is that he is faced to hide his very rare and power of the control of fire. Only certain kids of Hephaestus, god of blacksmith and fire, have this power that is very destructive.
An external conflict is the Queen of The Gods Hera has been kidnapped and the three main characters, Jason, Leo, and Piper, are faced with this quest to save the Goddess of Marriage.
Connor, I am reading that book too! Tell me how you like it.
I am reading My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult and I am on page 145. An internal conflict that one of the main characters, Anna, is facing, is whether or not to continue with this lawsuit. She knows it is what her sister wants, but at the same time the "selfish" side of her doesn's want to see her go. She keeps debating whether or not what she is doing is right, but really has no one to talk to. An external conflict would be between Anna and her family. Her family is furious at her. because she really is killing her sister. But Anna can't tell them the real reason she is doing it, because she promised her sister she wouldn't. This results in a lot of tension between Anna and especially her mother, and there really is no way to resolve it until the truth comes out. This is a character versus character conflict.
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins and I am on page 204. An internal conflict that the main character, Katniss, is experiencing is whether or not she should be with Gale or Peeta. This conflict came about in the last chapter I read because Peeta has been tortured by the Capitol and brainwashed into thinking Katniss is a horrible, evil person. Because of Peeta's torture, Katniss is leaning towards Gale, but she knows that if Peeta ever gets better, she will be with him. An external conflict that Katniss faces is character vs. society. She and the rebels are trying to take control of the Capitol and kill President Snow. However before they can take control of the Capitol, they must have control of all of the districts. In the last chapter I read, they are formulating a plan to take control of District 2, which is the last district they need before they can seize control of the Capitol.
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins and I am currently on page 149. (I haven’t had so much time to read lately, so yes I’m still on Mockingjay!) The internal conflict that Katniss faces is that she doesn’t think that she is the one for the “job” as the rebels’ Mockingjay. Everyone else needs her to be the Mockingjay, but even though she accepted, she still doesn’t think she is the right one. The external conflict is that the rebels are fighting against the Capitol while trying to “recruit” or pull in other Districts into the rebellion. This is a character vs. society conflict, because Katniss is technically the rebel leader, but she doesn’t call the plans and arrange attacks, that is President Coin of District 13’s job.
I am on page 82 30-Second Politics by Steven Tyler. One internal conflict in this book would be trying to find the balance of things that are doable, moral. An external conflict would be yourself vs. society, it is the fact that what you do can be extremely beneficial to yourself, but could be harming or even killing countless numbers of people.
Dylan Rowe, I have read the first two books in that series and am dying to read mocking jay! tell me how it is.

I am reading Through my Eyes by Tim Tebow with Nathan Whitaker. I’m currently on page 217. While I was reading this book one huge internal conflict with the main character, Tim Tebow whether he should go to the University of Florida of if he should go to the University of Alabama. This was an internal conflict with himself because this decision would change his life for forever. Also an external conflict with Tim was between him and society. Because Tim had worked so hard his whole life for this and now nobody believed that he had enough potential to be a first round draft pick.
I am currently reading The Help by Katherine Stockett and I am on page 100.
An internal conflict one of the main characters, Ms. Skeeter, faces is that since she still lives with her parents and she doesn't have her own car she is forced to use her mother's car. Of course when she asks to use the car her mother always asks her where she's going. Many times she lies to her just because it's easier. She claims it's enjoyable but also degrading. So she pretty much has no conscience when it comes to lying to her mother.
An external conflict Ms. Skeeter faces is man to man. She doesn't know why her mother fired the house maid, Constantine, so to get some answers she turns to Miss Leefolt's maid, Aibileen. When she brings up the subject Aibileen tells her short snippets of what happened but never enough for Ms. Skeeter to get the whole story. Which aggravates her because Constantine was her favorite maid and she doesn't understand why she was fired. This also sets Aibileen on edge because she feels she isn't the right person to explain this to Ms.Skeeter.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire/J.K Rawling/PG 74
One internal conflict Harry Potter faces is that his scar has been hurting and he knows that that has something to do with Voldemort, so he doesn't know how to react to that. He doesn't know if he should tell someone or keep it to himself because he doesn't want to make a big deal of it. He's having a hard time deciding how to deal with it.
Harry's external conflict is character vs. character and it's between him and his aunt, uncle, and cousin. His conflict is that his family hates him and won't even let him mention the word 'Magic' or 'Wizard' during the summer (when he has to live with them.) This makes life hard for Harry because he can't continue with his normal magical life he has at school, and he can't communicate and visit with his school friends like most normal kids can during the summer.
Asimmons5- I LOOOOVED that movie!!!!! It was amazing. I watched the Oscars and I saw a clip were one of the maids (I can't remember her name) gave the white lady a POOP PIE and then I went and rented it that night and watched it! I loved it and I was going to borrow the book from my mom but she lent it out and then I forgot to get it back eventually, so I guess I'll just have to get it at the library or something. Is it good? The movie was amazing.
I am currently reading The Death Cure by James Dashner and am 56 percent finished with it. In this book, the main character Thomas has an internal conflict when he has to decide if he can trust Teresa or if she is working for WICKED. An external conflict that Thomas has is a Character vs. Society conflict when he is constantly on the run from every police officer in Denver and also running from WICKED who are all across Denver as well.

The book that I am currently reading is Fancy White Trash by Marjetta Geerling and am on page 52. One of the main characters is Cody. At school he gets bullied but he does nothing to stop it. However he is gay but no one knows except his best friend and next door neighbor Abby Savage. In this way, he has an internal conflict because he keeps it to himself. An external conflict is that two of Abby's sisters and her mom are all pregnant but they all have the same father, or so they think and he just happens to be the mom's husband. The type is from character to character because if the mom finds out it might end up in another divorce and a big problem between the family.
I just finished reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins!
An internal conflict was facing during the book, was when Katniss, the main character, was wondering whether or not to trust Haymitch, previous mentor for the games. Because when Katniss was in the Quarter Quell, Haymitch and Katniss had a deal to save Peeta, another main character, but instead Haymitch just saved Katniss and Peeta was captured by the Capitol and tortured. So when Katniss makes plans to go outside of District 13 and plan assassinations, she wonders whether to trust that Haymitch is on her side, or not.
An external conflict was between the Snow, the president of Panem, and Katniss. Snow wants Katniss dead because she is the leader of the rebellion, which all of the districts are rebelling, so if Katniss dies, the districts would loose hope in fighting. However, Katniss wants to kill Snow because of all her life, how he has treated the country and her district. Also, because he constructed the formation of the horrific annual Hunger Games where innocent children of the districts have to fight to the death.

How do you like your book?
I have just started reading The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. Even though I am only on the tenth page I can already spot some internal conflicts, Jason, the main character has. Jason has no idea who he is, he wakes up on a bus and everyone around him knows him perfectly except himself. He finds himself not knowing who anyone is or even who he is. An external conflict Jason faces is a Character vs. Society conflict because everyone around him is trying to tell him that they have known him for years even though he hasn’t.
Lena- That trilogy one of my favorite series, and you are spot on with those conflicts.
I am currently reading Uglies and am on page 139. One internal conflict the main character Tally faces is whether or not to tell the government about her friend Shay who ran off the night before her operation. Shay is one of the many "uglies" to run off before they are turned pretty, but the government is attempting to track down these missing teenagers and their leader, David, to punish them. Tally does want to become pretty, which would mean turning Shay in, but she doesn't want to ruin the friendship they had before Shay ran off.
One external conflict Tally faces is the influence of her family, friends, and the government. They have all banded together to convince Tally to run off into the world of the unknown to find Shay, but she still isn't sure if she wants to ruin her friendship with Shay, who seems much more real than the people in her small city.
Lena- is this your first time reading Mockingjay? If it is, what did you think of the ending? I'm always curious to hear what people think after they finish. Some people love the ending and some hate it.
I am reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I am currently on page 104.
The main character is a boy named Santiago. One of his internal conflicts is whether or not he wants to risk his stable, but boring life to follow his dreams. This dream would be to become a traveler and to find the treasure buried deep within the pyramids in egypt. People said to him if he wants to be a traveler, he must first be a shepherd, and that is what he became. He lives off the coast of spain in an area called Andalusia, so his dream went down the toilet because he had no money to pay for a caravan to take him across the deserts. Even though Santiago has gotten to a point where he does have enough money, he is still conflicted on whether he wants to go.
Santiago has a character versus character conflict. This happens between Santiago and a girl named Fatima. The boy finally decided to go on the caravan when he had enough money and he set off into the desert. The caravan stopped at an oasis where he first met Fatima. His friend was on a mission to find the alchemist living in the oasis so Santiago asked a few ladies if they knew of the famous alchemist. They were dressed in all black. They said to him to never talk to the women in black because it was a tradition in their culture symbolizing that those women were married. They said to respect their tradition. The two boys found Fatima and she was not dressed in black, so they decided to talk to her. It was love at first sight for Santiago and Fatima so they talked for a few minutes and then she left. The next day Santiago asked Fatima to marry him! She did not know what to do because they did not even know each other. The conflict is Santiago wants to marry this girl but she is held up on wanted to discover more about him first. He wants her so badly but she is still undecided.
Connor ~ I have noticed a lot of people reading that book. I do not think I will ever read it but I wanted to know how you thought it was. Its sounds really cool!
Sorry
***It sounds really cool!***
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, I am on page 75.
One internal conflict that Katniss faces is that she blames herself for the dead and dying rebels. She is battling the guilt about what has happened to those close to her and even those that she doesn’t know. Katniss is also battling with the rules and regulations of District 13. This is character vs. society, Katniss is grateful for the safety of the district but the longer she stays the more similarities she sees between this society and the Capitols. Katniss often will rebel against the districts ways by not following the schedule they give her or hiding when they want to speak with her.
Connor
that is an interesting external conflict
I am currently re-reading Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins and I am % done!
Katniss Everdeen, the main character was just picked to go into the Quarter Quell. She was recently in the Hunger Games and won with another tribute from her district. For the Quarter Quell any of the tributes remaining that have won from the previous games are now chosen again to go back and compete again. The conflict would be self vs. society because Katniss feels betrayed by the Capitol and is very frustrated with their actions.
Sorry Mrs. Thomas I forgot the rest of my blog:
An internal conflict would be when Katniss holds herself responsible for her family and friends being in danger ever since she won the Hunger Games. The Capitol has been "out to get her" because she defied them in the games.
Katy~
That sounds like an interesting book. How did you come to read it?
The book I read was HIVE: Escape Velocity by Mark Walden and I finished it in school today.
One internal conflict the main character, Otto Malpense faces is the blame he puts on himself when he gets captured along with his friends, Wing, Laura, Shelby and Raven and Nero by Sebastian Trent, the leader of H.O.P.E., which is a self called organization that works for the common good and the people, in an attempt to rescue Nero, the kidnapped head master of HIVE institue. After being captured, Otto's friends are to be killed while Otto and Nero are brought to Number One, the leader of GLOVE, which is an organization of villainous minds. Now Otto blames himself for the close at hand demise of his friends by failing their rescue mission.
An external conflict is a person to person conflict between Number One(Overlord) and Otto. Number One, who was actually taken over by Overlord, who is an A.I. that is bent on taking over earth, is now trying to take Otto's body, which turned out to have been made by Overlord in order to be a vessel for him, in replacement of the now feeble old Number One. The conflict is solved by Otto destroying the A.I.
Katy
That book is really inspirational. My favorite character was the old king.
I just finished Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins.
An internal conflict that Katniss has would be whether she really loves Peeta or not. She has a hard time figuring out what feelings are real and what feelings are not real. She has to act like she loves Peeta in front of the cameras because President Snow says that is the only way to keep the districs of Panem from starting an uprising. Peeta has been in love with Katniss since they were little, so it is hard for her to turn him down. But Katniss' best friend, Gale, is in love with her as well, which makes it very hard for her to choose between the two. Her basic internal conflict would be having to essentially decide if she loves Peeta, because she may be in love with Gale.
An external conflict in the book would be character vs. society. The Capitol absolutely hates Katniss because she is the reason the country is falling apart. Throughout the books, Katniss shows the people of the country how awful the Capitol is, running their dystopian society. The things that Katniss does sparks uprisings throughout the districs, and this makes the Capitol very angry, but the President cannot kill her because that would make things twice as bad. In Catching Fire, Haymitch, her mentor, even tells her right before she goes into the 75th Hunger Games to remember who the real enemy is. In this case, he means the Capitol, which reinforces the ultimate conflict of the book.
LSakalla- I have read Mockingjay before, and I am re-reading all of the books since it has been a year since I have read them all. Anyway, I totally understand what you mean when Katniss has to decide whether or not to trust Haymitch. I was surprised when I read it though, because he has always been on her side, so I thought that it was crazy for her to be questioning her trust.
im reading before i fall by lauren oliver and im on page 103. this book is a about a popular girl who's got everything, but then dies. but heres the catch- she wakes up the next morining relives the day she died and and this happens several times. one internal conflict is her trying to decided to tell her friends about it or not, because she thinks they might think shes going crazy. one external conflict she faces is this girl named juliet, who her friends bully and then juliet comes and tells the that there all b**ches and this is person to person conflict.
Lena- those are really good conflicts- and soo true!
I am reading Maze Runner by James Dashner I am on page 250
A internal conflict that the main character faces is that he wants to go into the maze but he has to hold himself back and learn about the way of the glade.
a external conflict that he faces is person vs. person and a senior in the glade is mad at him for playing a prank on him while he was in the bathroom
LSakalla6 ~ Mockingjay was my least favorite of the series, TOO SAD!!!
I'm reading The Slippery Slope by Lemony Snicket and I'm on page 23.
An internal conflict the Baudelaire's Violet and Klaus, are having is confusion of their present state and all their unanswered questions that have accumulated at this point in the series of books. Like what is V.F.D.? Where did the quagmires go? Also the moral right and wrong of how to get their little sister, Sunny back from Count Olaf and Esme. An external conflict is the one between the Baudelaire's and Count Olaf who is trying to ruin their lives and steal their fortune. In this book he tried to kill Violet and Klaus, and stole Sunny away with plans to corrupt her and take their fortune when shes old enough. This has been a constant external conflict throughout the entire series. Not just this book.
Lena-
I cannot believe you liked Mockingjay! It was so surpising to hear you say that! Ha, we all have our own tastes though, right?
I am reading the Plains of Passage by Jean Auel. I am on page 81.
An inner conflict that Ayla must face is that she is constantly brought back to her past and the betrayals that she faced. Her pain sometimes leads her to distrust others, but now Jondalar has shown her that people can change and accept one another.
An external is man vs society and a little of man vs man. The problem is that Ayla was orphaned after an earthquake and adopted by a tribe of Cro-Magnons which are very primitive humans. She left this tribe and is traveling with Jondalar, her love interest, to his home, but she is constantly worrying over the more 'evolved' neanderthals that are Jondalar's and her own species. She worries she will shunned because her species feels that the Cro-Magnons are primitive and to be raised by them is highly frowned upon. What makes matters worse is before she left the Cro-Magnon tribe she had had a child and been forced to abandon them. If her species found out about this it could make her chances of being shunned from them even greater.
RFrangie- That sounds like a rather intense book. Tell me if it is good or not, because sometimes those kinds of books I just can't read. Although I am sure it is a higher level of intensity, I tried to read The Color Purple, and after 30 pages I was done. It was just too much, I wasn't ready for that type of book.
I am on page 237 of The Yearling by Marjorie k Rawlings.
The main character Jody is having a major internal conflict that a large portion of this book revolves around. Jody is told that his pet deer has to be shot cuz it is being very bad for his family. Jody knows he has to do it to help the family. He fights with himself for a long time until he runs away. An external conflict that he has is a 'man v. man' conflict ytpe. Jody's dad, penny, is a very understanding father to Jody and he is Jody's role model. For his dad to have to enforce and make have to kill his own oet deer was a major conflict. Jody and the deer were inseperable which made it even harder.
Rachel,
Wow, I would feel so sorry for Cody. Thats alot to have on ones mind.
Connor,
That would mess with my mind so much. Every one else would know me but me!
I just finished the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
An internal conflict in Peeta is that he has thought Katniss loved him throughout the games and he has to face the fact that she doesn't really love him. This is hard for Peeta to handle and doesn't speak to anyone about it and shuts Katniss out.
An external conflict earlier in the novel was that Peeta didn't want to participate in the Hunger Games and realized how terrible the Capitol is for making kids do the games.
Bridget~ I can't wait to get to that book, I heard it was the best!
I am reading The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis and I am on page 113. An external conflict of the book was between Shift and Puzzle, and the people of Narnia. This occurred when Shift persuaded Puzzle to dress up like Aslan and get the people of Narnia to work at the Calormenes. The conflict is the fact that they are being tricked and are working, giving money to Puzzle. King Tirian soon realizes it’s not Aslan and asks questions. In response the Calormenes torture him. An internal conflict that occurs in the book is between Poggin and himself. Poggin is the only dwarf that still has faith in Aslan, but the other dwarfs don't and shun him. He is the left alone to work for "Aslan" and suffers without his family.
Connor- Oh, that book sounds interesting. Wow that is awesome how you found conflicts in just the first ten pages. Tell me about the book when you finish it.
I am reading Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins, and am currently on page 288. One of the main characters is Katniss, and the internal problem she has faced throughout the entire series, is her love for Peeta. She cannot figure out her emotions about him. At the end of the first book, she was pretending to love him so get sponsors for the Hunger Games to stay alive. But, in the second book (the one I am reading now) she is starting to fall in love with him. An external conflict Katniss is to help Peeta stay alive in the Hunger Games. She is fighting against adults that have been in the Hunger Games before, and are experienced. She has decided that she will save Peeta and protect him, instead of herself, because he looked after her in the first book, and helped her stay alive. Therefore, Katniss is having many problems with not only herself, but the people around her too.
Cameron- I felt so bad for Peeta she he found out Katniss was faking being in love with him!
I finished "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" by Mark Haddon.
An internal conflict in this book is how Christopher, the main character, has "behavioral problems", possibly autism, which makes it so he cannot do certain things. Examples include not having his food touch, hurting people if they touch them, not understanding sarcasm or emotions, getting dizzy if changes are made to a room, covering his ears and groaning loudly if there are too many new things to look at, and not eating yellow foods. An external conflict portrayed in the book is man vs. man. This includes him and his father because two years ago Christopher's mom cheated on his dad with their neighbor and moved with him to London. Instead of telling Christopher the truth, his dad said that she was in the hospital and later said that she died of a heart attack. Two years later the dad gets frustrated with Mrs. Shears, the woman who's husband left her for Christopher's mom, because he feels as thought she cares about her dog more than Christopher and him. Then he stabs the dog with a garden fork. Christopher finds the dog and decides to solve the mystery of who the murderer was and was writing what happened down in a book. His father did not want him to investigate the murder, so he took the book and hid it in his room. While at work Christopher went into the father's room and found the book along with dozens of letters written by Christopher's mom, addressed to him. When he figured out that his father lied, he confronted him, and the father also tells him that he killed Mrs. Shear's dog. Christopher is then afraid of his father and tries to live with his mom in London using the adress on the letters that she sent. He takes a crazy journey while being tracked down by the police who were sent by his father. He ends up finding his mother, but the father comes to the mother's house and argues with her saying he wants Christopher back.
Rachel,
That is a very interesting title for a book. And I agree with you on how Abby's conflict could lead to a big problem between the family.
I'm reading mocking jay by suzanne collins and I am on page36.
Internal- the main character Katniss hastodecide whose loves, gale or petta and science the first book Otha's been an ongoing struggle in her that gets more and more difficult.
External- character vs. character(s) Katniss is hiding from the capital and is also helping to over through president snow. She has to defet him if she wants to stop the games and save petta.
Mtracy6- I love that book and I agree, her love for petta is defiantly a large problem throughout the story
Katy5~ Is that one of the Sunshine State books? It sounded familiar.
I am reading the Eleventh Plague and I am on page 203.
An internal conflict that Stephen faces is that when he is deciding what to do in a certain situation, he tends to think about what his grandpa would have done. He saw his grandpa as a role model. However, he then remembers his dad saying to him one time, "Grandpa is gone." Stephen faces the conflict of not knowing whether to make a decision on his own or to balance the choice with what his grandpa would do. For example, this struggle is displayed when Stephen must decide what to do when Tuttle offers him some books to read based on how to become a more important person in the world.
An external conflict Stephen faces is character vs. society. A plague was released in America wiping out enormous amounts of human life and the landscape. This left many people alive with only one option: survival. Stephen is left alone trying to survive and there are many groups of people out there with the same goal that will attempt to kill him, such as slavers or bandits. Stephen feels he is up against the rest of the world at one point and even after he reaches safety, momentarily, in Settler's landing, after an unfortunate event, he, Jenny, and a few other friends face a large scale fight against a massive group of people. Stephen and his friends must face the conflict and fight for their lives.
Paige-
Those conflicts are what I thought were some of the most major conflicts in the book. Especially their confusion, they generally are confused and don't know exactly what to do to get out of Count Olaf's grasp.
The book that I'm reading is The Book Stops Here by Ian Sansom and am on page 135.
The main character Israel is finally getting to visit his home country, England with his co-worker Ted. Ted and Israel run a mobile library in Northern Ireland and are going to England for a conference, "The Mobile Meet". Israel is looking forward to seeing his girlfriend, Gloria, who lives in England, but once he arrives Gloria doesn't show up, though she siad she would, and won't answer the phone. This is one of Israel's internal conflicts because he is torn between thinking Gloria is dumping him or that she was just busy. Ted and Israel get into an argument as to whether or not they should get a new book mobile. This is character to character conflict because they very obviously disagreeing and can't seem to come to an agreement.
Lena~
That's an interesting internal conflict! I wouldn't have thought of that one first.
I am currently reading the Sixth book of the Lemony Snicket series called the Ersatz Elevator and am one page 91. An internal conflict that the Baudelaire orphans have trying to agree on everything. Whenever they have a decision to make, its difficult because they constantly have conflicting ideas. An external conflict they have is trying to GET ANYONE to realize that Count Olaf is trying to kidnap them. People do not believe them though because he is disguised and is very cunning. In this book he has tricked their new "mother" Esmè into thinking that he is a realtor.
Maggie, that book seems very interesting. As soon as I read the title I wanted to see what it was about. It seems like it has some romance in it.
In my book Act of Valor by Dick Couch i am on page 186. At one point the view of an agent is given. It gives his thoughts about his bombings, It tells of his emotional numbness after each bombing. The feeling of killing hundreds of children causes him to feel nothing. yet he feels no guilt for such a abhorrent. But in some situations he feels bad for what he has done, yet he cannot show this or his low profile may be compromised.
CChristensen- I read that book and really enjoyed it. I recentley read the sequel to it and I would suggest it as the next book you read.
Alex: I would hate to have to re-live the day that I die because I would know what was going to happen.. Hopefully though I would be able to avoid it then!
I am reading Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks and I am on page 67.
An internal conflict is the book happens with one of the main characters, Alex. Alex is a single father of two young children, and he must bring them to work with him everyday to supervise them, so they don't often receive the attention that they need. Due to this, Alex is never satisfied with his parenting but knows that its what he has to do to make ends meet. However, when his son, Josh, has a near death experience, Alex really starts weighing down on himself to be a better parent. He is very hard on himself. Part of him wants to quit his job to be with the kids but the other part knows that isn't reality, so it causes an internal conflict.
An external conflict in this book is character vs. character, and the specific characters are yet to be revealed. One of Katie (the main character's) friends dealt with an abusive husband, so much that she had to run away and start completely over. He still is looking for her and she knows if he finds her then it will not be good.
You Don’t Know Me Pg.10 By: David Klass
In this book there are many internal conflicts, one is that the main character (I do not know his name yet) feels that nobody understands who he is and what he is going through, I also think that he could have a disorder of some sort because he asks a ton of questions and tells you that you don’t know about him. One of the External conflicts is that his father who is not his father abuses him and doesn’t seem to care for him at all. So every day he struggles physically because he is being hit by his father.
Also: The External conflict is Man to MAn conflict
Lena - THat book was amazing! Great internal conflict!
I am reading The Lost Hero By Rick Riordan and I am on page 193.
One internal conflict with one of the main Characters, Leo, is that he is faced to hide his very rare and power of the control of fire. Only certain kids of Hephaestus, god of blacksmith and fire, have this power that is very destructive.
An external conflict is the Queen of The Gods Hera has been kidnapped and the three main characters, Jason, Leo, and Piper, are faced with this quest to save the Goddess of Marriage.
Connor, I am reading that book too! Tell me how you like it.
I am reading My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult and I am on page 145. An internal conflict that one of the main characters, Anna, is facing, is whether or not to continue with this lawsuit. She knows it is what her sister wants, but at the same time the "selfish" side of her doesn's want to see her go. She keeps debating whether or not what she is doing is right, but really has no one to talk to. An external conflict would be between Anna and her family. Her family is furious at her. because she really is killing her sister. But Anna can't tell them the real reason she is doing it, because she promised her sister she wouldn't. This results in a lot of tension between Anna and especially her mother, and there really is no way to resolve it until the truth comes out. This is a character versus character conflict.
Bridget~
I just finished that book and I totally agree with that internal conflict!
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins and I am on page 204. An internal conflict that the main character, Katniss, is experiencing is whether or not she should be with Gale or Peeta. This conflict came about in the last chapter I read because Peeta has been tortured by the Capitol and brainwashed into thinking Katniss is a horrible, evil person. Because of Peeta's torture, Katniss is leaning towards Gale, but she knows that if Peeta ever gets better, she will be with him. An external conflict that Katniss faces is character vs. society. She and the rebels are trying to take control of the Capitol and kill President Snow. However before they can take control of the Capitol, they must have control of all of the districts. In the last chapter I read, they are formulating a plan to take control of District 2, which is the last district they need before they can seize control of the Capitol.
Andrew, those were two conflicts I thought of when I read that book. Nice work!
Joey~ The Lemony Snicket series is AMAZING! I remember it was the coolest thing ever in elementary school!
I am reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins and I am currently on page 149. (I haven’t had so much time to read lately, so yes I’m still on Mockingjay!)
The internal conflict that Katniss faces is that she doesn’t think that she is the one for the “job” as the rebels’ Mockingjay. Everyone else needs her to be the Mockingjay, but even though she accepted, she still doesn’t think she is the right one.
The external conflict is that the rebels are fighting against the Capitol while trying to “recruit” or pull in other Districts into the rebellion. This is a character vs. society conflict, because Katniss is technically the rebel leader, but she doesn’t call the plans and arrange attacks, that is President Coin of District 13’s job.
I am on page 82 30-Second Politics by Steven Tyler. One internal conflict in this book would be trying to find the balance of things that are doable, moral. An external conflict would be yourself vs. society, it is the fact that what you do can be extremely beneficial to yourself, but could be harming or even killing countless numbers of people.
Dylan Rowe,
I have read the first two books in that series and am dying to read mocking jay! tell me how it is.

I am reading Through my Eyes by Tim Tebow with Nathan Whitaker. I’m currently on page 217.
While I was reading this book one huge internal conflict with the main character, Tim Tebow whether he should go to the University of Florida of if he should go to the University of Alabama. This was an internal conflict with himself because this decision would change his life for forever. Also an external conflict with Tim was between him and society. Because Tim had worked so hard his whole life for this and now nobody believed that he had enough potential to be a first round draft pick.
Hunter~
I've been meaning to read that book. Could you lend it to me when you are done?
I am currently reading The Help by Katherine Stockett and I am on page 100.
An internal conflict one of the main characters, Ms. Skeeter, faces is that since she still lives with her parents and she doesn't have her own car she is forced to use her mother's car. Of course when she asks to use the car her mother always asks her where she's going. Many times she lies to her just because it's easier. She claims it's enjoyable but also degrading. So she pretty much has no conscience when it comes to lying to her mother.
An external conflict Ms. Skeeter faces is man to man. She doesn't know why her mother fired the house maid, Constantine, so to get some answers she turns to Miss Leefolt's maid, Aibileen. When she brings up the subject Aibileen tells her short snippets of what happened but never enough for Ms. Skeeter to get the whole story. Which aggravates her because Constantine was her favorite maid and she doesn't understand why she was fired. This also sets Aibileen on edge because she feels she isn't the right person to explain this to Ms.Skeeter.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire/J.K Rawling/PG 74
One internal conflict Harry Potter faces is that his scar has been hurting and he knows that that has something to do with Voldemort, so he doesn't know how to react to that. He doesn't know if he should tell someone or keep it to himself because he doesn't want to make a big deal of it. He's having a hard time deciding how to deal with it.
Harry's external conflict is character vs. character and it's between him and his aunt, uncle, and cousin. His conflict is that his family hates him and won't even let him mention the word 'Magic' or 'Wizard' during the summer (when he has to live with them.) This makes life hard for Harry because he can't continue with his normal magical life he has at school, and he can't communicate and visit with his school friends like most normal kids can during the summer.
Asimmons5-
I LOOOOVED that movie!!!!! It was amazing. I watched the Oscars and I saw a clip were one of the maids (I can't remember her name) gave the white lady a POOP PIE and then I went and rented it that night and watched it! I loved it and I was going to borrow the book from my mom but she lent it out and then I forgot to get it back eventually, so I guess I'll just have to get it at the library or something. Is it good? The movie was amazing.
Alex- That book sounds like it would be interesting to read but scary because the girl keeps reliving the same day over and over again.
I am currently reading The Death Cure by James Dashner and am 56 percent finished with it. In this book, the main character Thomas has an internal conflict when he has to decide if he can trust Teresa or if she is working for WICKED. An external conflict that Thomas has is a Character vs. Society conflict when he is constantly on the run from every police officer in Denver and also running from WICKED who are all across Denver as well.
Chandler-
From reading your post, I can tell that that is a very inspirational book. I've heard that it was. Do you like it?
