Day 2

For your second blog assignment, we would like for you to share your initial experiences with reading your book of choice. First, we'd like to know why you chose the book you ended up with. What about the description drew you to that particular story? Were there other factors that influenced your decision?

Second, we'd like you to compare your first impression of the book from the description (and what you thought it would be like) to your actual first encounter with the text. Does the book live up to your expectations? Why or why not? If the book is similar to what you thought it'd be like, use examples from the text that you felt you expected. If the book is much different than you thought it'd be, share examples from the text that surprised you.
