The 3 stories I have chosen to read and annotate
were Sucker, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, and Araby. They all have somewhat
interesting titles that make you want to read the stories. After reading each
of the titles, you can predict many plot lines to each story. I made many
conclusions after finishing all the stories. Most of the stories were long and hard to comprehend, but I did it.
I never knew how much I could really connect
with the story. Sucker actually really changed my mind of heart. My cousin
Josephine, we call her Josie is always left out. She has always been the
closest with me, but I need to watch my words and what I say to her because she
does take in every little thing I say. Not only Sucker but the other stories as
well. Every story virtually has a message. You can take that message
differently than others but the author is writing the story to send a message
in most cases. Taking the story in is something different. I have to make the
story personal to usually understand the story. I put the characters in my
shoes and plug them in as people in my life, and I understand the stories much
better.
I really loved how you included a personal connection. It will make the story more meaningful, and I feel as though this connection may help you when creating your analysis. I really enjoyed reading this because I only read "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge." Great job Ellie! Keep up the good work(:
ReplyDeleteI agree that the ones that we have to read now are harder to understand. I love your blog, and I think you have good choices for your analysis!
