I'm glad that we have finally moved onto novels. These are a lot more enjoyable for me than for reading a play, but seems like a lot more to annotate. This novel is pretty unusual in the way it's structured with memories merging with the present, kind of like Death of a Salesman. This structure probably has some deeper meaning that I'll get to find out about later.
The essay practice has been pretty hard for me. I have trouble writing the thesis statement. I have trouble focusing on the meaning of a piece and usually just focus on the mechanics of piece, instead of saying how they contribute to the meaning of the actual piece. Hopefully by the time the AP arrives I will have overcome this and will be able to write at least a seven.
