Journal #2 Chapters 4-7 Scout

I got scared today. I liked it that Dill came back, but I was scared. Before he came back my evasion against the Radley place was high, but I went there like when I found gum there. Many things happened. When I really got scared was when Dill was talking about smelling death in the air. He was saying that he could smell when people will die. Then he said that I was going to die, that’s when he seriously scared me. But I didn’t believe him because I knew that it was stupid talk and that no one can tell when someone is going to die. I felt that he was being tyranny because he felt like he was being harsh about me going to die and about what it felt like. But the thing about it is that I felt like he was serious about it because of the way he said it and about the way he felt about it. I also thought that inside me, it wasn’t really unanimous that either he was lying or telling the truth. I thought a lot of things about what Jem told Dill about the Hot Steam’s and I think that it is not true and that if they are, then they are just chameleon like ghost that just camouflages with its surroundings. But I really got scared when I was in the tire and Jem pushed me. I felt that he was tormenting me when he did that because he pushed with all his might and when I ended up near the Radley Place, I felt as if he did it on purpose, but I know he didn’t because he is not that kind of person.

I liked how you said that Scout was scared a lot because she really was, and I would've too if I were in her situation. The only thing that I would recommend might be to re-read the post through and make sure everything flows clearly. Also I would make sure to check the vocab words and make sure they're used correctly. Other than that I really liked it (:
