May 21 2018

Hello, blog, today in class we focused all of our attention and time towards talking about the catcher in the rye as you probably know everyone was supposed to read chapters one through five for homework away and I personally dislike having to read for homework but something about this book made the time go by fast and it was very easy to get lost in the pages. It must be the interesting writing style. Most of the class time was spent on talking about the characters and the class broke them down and talked about the explicit features and the implicit features of each character. I will paste a few of my notes from today to look at and help understand more about today's class.
