hey all, here's a quick update.
-i've started the review for gatsby and for the lorax.
-i've finished the kite runner, so now i can start a review of that (i'll also need to find the movie and watch it).
-i was really torn on what books to read next. i don't have a whole lot of preference from the list, although i'd like to try to stick to the ones we have here at home. that narrowed my list considerably. i couldn't find my copy of to kill a mockingbird, so that's out. i opened up jonathan swift's gullivers travels and decided i'm not quite up for that (just the way it's written), pulled out uncle tom's cabin and set up as next in queue and finally settled on lord of the flies.
i found some sites/blogs out there that have done similar things to what i'm trying to do now. while i was mildly disappointed, i didn't honestly believe i was the only one to do something like this. but i did come to the realization that my 'reviews'(will) have no real structure.
i'm not a trained writer. the last time i made an outline, i was in junior high i think. from the sites i've seen, i have an idea of how i'd like it to look, but i'm making no promises that a) you'll learn anything of significance from it and b) it'll actually look good and flow well.
just remember this. we may have the same opinions, we may have differing ones. but what ultimately matters is my opinion. i'm kidding :)
maybe we can use this as a forum to discuss...who knows what it'll turn into - i'm sure it'll be ever evolving.
cheers!
