BLOG IT! (2) Due Wednesday, March 4, 2009

During English class this year, we have read many short stories, books, and plays so far. In this blog entry, write about the piece of literature you have enjoyed reading the most, and explain why you have enjoyed reading it. Next tell me a little bit about what you are interested in reading. If you were to love a book, what would it be about or what style/genre of literature would it be? You could start by writing about a particular book that you have enjoyed and would use as a model for other books you would enjoy.
