Folks, please make sure to read the posts before yours before you write. The idea is that each of you adds something new to the conversation. Even if you say it well, your post won't count if the information is the same.
Also, and I know this is new to you all--try not to give us too much of the story. Remember that we have all read. Spend a bit more thinking and then writing about what the events mean. Think in terms of conflict, characterization, tone, foreshadowing, or maybe the emotional effects on the reader. Are we being reminded of or informed of something that enhances our understanding or makes us react differently to the events?
Literary analysis is difficult at first, and you guys are doing fine. Just start digging a bit deeper. Make ME say, "Hmmm, I hadn't thought of that!"
