Kill Alex Cross: Week of 10/21/13

Pages read:115-151
prompt:Differentiate between the main character and your favorite teacher.

      The main character of this book is Alex Cross. He is a very determined man. He's a cop and practically lives his job every second of every minute of every hour of every week. He is married to Bree. She is also a cop so she understands why her husband is always gone. Alex cros can get very agitated at time. My favorite teacher is Mr.Dillon on 6B. He is very funny,witty,and weird. His job is that he is the special Ed teacher. He is addicted to pugs. Whenever he can he will make a profile picture of a pug, buy a pug stuffed animal, or a poster, he lives for those things. He was good friend with Teresa Norris on 6B also.

     Some differences between Mr.Dillon and Alex Cross is their personality. Alex Cross is more serious and stressed. Mr.Dillion on the other and just wants to have fun. Another diference between Mr.Dillon and Alex cross is they have completely different likes. Mr.Dillon lives for pugs while Alex Cross lives for solving crimes. Another difference is that at Alex Crosses job, he has to be strong, brave, and hard. A Mr.Dillon's job, he can be out going. He doesn't have to deal with dead kids, kidnapped people,and the stress of crime. All he has to do is be with kids all day. I think that Mr.Dillon would agree wit me because he has been with kids for so long that it is kind of in his blood. He has grown to kids. He is probably to soft for it now. Like i'm being mean. It takes a while to get used to those types of things you have to deal with as a cop.

One major difference between Mr.Dillon and Alex Cross is their everyday schedule. Mr.Dillon has to get ready in the morning, Get to school, teach kids, eat lunch,teach again then go home. He is only there for only 7 hours to.Alex cross gets up at the crack of dawn, go to work, get orders, got place to place, talk to strangers, call people, squeeze in lunch, then redo the last four. He does this all day !!!  Mr.Dillon is only working for 7 hours. Alex cross work practically 24/7.

  1. I really like how you chose Mr. Dillon to make differences Alex Cross. They actually really seem different as for their schedules and personality. This book sounds like a good one. I've always heard of this book, but I never really came to the point where I started to read it. I am looking forward to read it in the future.

  2. I really like how you described Alex Cross. I think having a wife and husband both as cop would be really interesting. Since Bree's husband is always gone, when do they get to see each other?
