Blog Comments on RR 1




Blog Comment #1: Olivia Krent

            Olivia’s reading response of The Future of Us is full of voice that I agree with. I like how I can link to the piece to understand the book, since I haven’t read it. For example, the last sentence discusses how if Emma, the main character, didn’t find the key to her future, she would never really change the things she does because that’s not really the person she is. Also, Olivia mentions how Emma is almost desperate for happiness in the future, and I agree since she’s not enjoying the life she’s currently living. To conclude, this reading response expresses opinion very well and has motivated me to read this book.

Blog Comment #2: Zozi Flores

            Zozi’s reading response of In the Time of Butterflys is very well written. I liked this reading response not only for the content, but also because of the fact that its very similar to the one I wrote. For example, both of the main characters are from dictatorships in the Dominican Republic. The book In the Time of Butterflies, it is an interview and I enjoyed seeing how flash backs were mentioned. In both responses the response writers both connected with the overall themes. In conclusion, the reading response conveyed the main ideas well and was very similar to mine (in a good way!).
