Of all the texts that we've read this year, which one is your favorite, and why? Which one is your least favorite, and why?
this blog post forced me to think about everything we have learned this year and find my favorite book. personally my favorite book was The Odyssey. i think the reason i liked the odyssey so much was because i have always been interested in mythology and the book gave me a different perspective on that. there were also very interesting subplots and side stories that made it easier to get lost in the pages. I also liked the experience i got from deciphering the text. this type of language was fairly new to me and made the book challenging. if i had to pick my least favorite book it would have to be the narrative of the life of frederick douglass. don't get me wrong i loved this book soooo much but i just feel i got more from the other books we read. this book was very emotional and i learned a lot from it but i feel as a whole this book made me more sad than anything. i guess i just feel that i could get more enjoyment from a book like the odyssey or the great gatsby.
