There are TWO parts to this assignment:
1. Now that you have finished reading your book, you will write a detailed book reviewincluding the following:
- A brief SYNOPSIS (no more than 10%) of 2-3 spoiler-free sentences about the who, what, when, where, why and how of the plot.
- Thorough and specific OPINION/ASSESSMENT (about 75%) about your experience reading the book. What did you think? How did the book make you feel? Was it good? Bad? WHY? Would you recommend this book? Include specific reasons and evidence as to why or why not.
- Build some BACKGROUND (15%) for readers that might include some information about the author, a history of the book’s publication, any controversy about the book, or any other information your readers should know to make an informed choice about whether or not to read this book.
*** Remember: your job is to create an argument. Persuade your readers to either go out and get this book, or take a pass on reading it.
2. You need to read and respond to a group member’s review. After reading all of the reviews about your book, respond to at least ONE other person in your group.
You may ask questions, answer questions, clarify confusing parts, share your opinion, or offer additional information on your members' posts. You should write several sentences.
To respond, simply hit the reply link at the end the your group member’s post that you are commenting on. Be sure to title your response with your first name.
PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO
WRITE YOUR FIRST NAME AND ASSIGNMENT #3
IN YOUR POSTS AND RESPONSES!!!
Going through the book for the second time after losing my place and not knowing where I left off at. I learned a lot more, because there were certain things that I had missing reading it for the first time. I saw the deep emotional torment that is just swirling in her mind. I read in in the way she spoke and thought. She was rather distance when it came to her words and the way she connected to the people around her. Like buddy for example, she want to get to know him, but on an emotional level she cannot bring herself to do it because of her mental health is way to weak to deal with the thought of having to worry about other people. She cannot care about them, she would rather not care. Well it is more that she cannot bring herself to care for those around her. She tries, but fails most of the time. She could up with the best replies to Buddy's questions and when it just comes to conversations, but emotionally and mentally she is just way to tired. I like this women in an different aspect. I respect her but I hate how she is. She is not truly trying to solve the problem. The reason why I say this is because she does not even know that she really has a problem. All she knows is that she is drained emotionally and mentally. And for it to all end, she has to go 'sleep' it off.
