Make a text-to-text, text-to-self, and text-to-world connection to the book (You could easily write a paragraph on each and create links to other sites, videos, etc).

I am currently reading "The Eye Of The Minds" by James Dashner. The text-to-world connection to my book is the movie called "The Matrix." In the Matrix, the main character goes into a virtual world where he faces problems. There is a character named Mr. Anderson who is taking over this virtual world. The virtual world is called the Matrix. In my book the main character Michael is faced with a challenge that he never expected. He is supposed to find the Mortality Doctrine within a virtual world called the Virtnet.  The Virtnet is a world outside of the real world just like the Matrix. It's like going into a video game that feels real. Michael has to stop Kaine, he is doing something horrible to the people who are in the Virtnet, and find the Mortality Doctrine that Kaine is somehow linked to. In the Matrix, the main character has to stop Mr.Anderson from destroying their virtual world.

The text-to-text connection is relating a book also written by James Dashner called "The Maze Runner" to "The Eye Of Minds." Both of the main characters (Thomas and Michael) are faced with a problem that will be difficult to solve. Thomas has to figure out the maze and solve it to escape. Michael has to stop a cyberterroist in the Virtnet that is just as confusing as the maze. They have to figure out their surroundings. Both books have an adrenaline feel and are suspenseful and action filled. Both books take place in the future with advanced technology. 

The text-to-self connection is the 3 friends, Michael, Sarah, and Bryson, stick together and work as a team. They have to go through a mission together to find Kaine and the Mortality Doctrine. When my friends and I have to go through something together, we help each other and we are always there for one another. When a friend needs you, you are always there to help them. I help my friends and do things with them just like Michael does with his friends. Sarah and Bryson are helping Michael with the mission, and Michael works with his friends to complete the objective.
