We just finished reading our first novel and I actually liked it. However, annotating it is a completely different story! There was a lot symbolism in the novel and lots of Native American culture that I missed in my initial reading but I was able to pick up on it once we had our class discussions. For me, reading the article that Ms. Holmes gave us really helped me understand some of the symbolism that is represented in the book. Hopefully my understanding will be for the essay on the AP exam.
We just started reading Fifth Business and it's going pretty well. Like Ms. Holmes said, its straightforward which is really different compared to the other plays we have read in class. I hope understanding this will be easier since there doesn't seem to be any hidden/ complex meanings. And the best of this is that we don't have to annotate this book which is a relief.
