Pages 1-6

Words: Flue-a passage or duct for smoke like aw chimney; We have a flue in our house.

Refracted-Turned from a direct course by refraction; We refracted from the other car that would've killed us.

Stolid-not easily stirred or moved mentally; His mind was very stolid so we couldn't make him cry.

Plot: Today we read about how the firefighters in their time start fires, not put them out. They burned books. I still don't know why though. Then as the main character, Guy Montag, was walking home from his job,( he is a fireman) he met this girl Clarrise McLellan. She is insane. But she also makes him think. So she is cool. I feel that this book is very boring right now, but it might get better.

Other: I learned that this author likes to write poetically. Its hard to understand sometimes but its still is pretty cool.
