Three fourths done
So I am about three fourths done with the book. I am a little disappointed in myself because I did slack a little and I was actually hoping to be done with the book by now and starting my second book during vacation. So far I feel that I have been doing a lot better with the notes. I have began to notice a few things that Kingston uses such as figurative language and she also infuses a lot of Chinese culture into her writing, though sometimes it is so Asian, I guess I can say, that I cannot imagine anyone who is unfamiliar with the Chinese culture to actually understand what she means. I should start doing some actual research on my author. Sadly I haven't started yet. But as of now I am still unsure of what other works I can read besides her books. I have tried to look for her essays or blogs, and I did find a blog, but there was only one post on it. I will check to see if it has been undated.

It's good to hear that you are doing better with your books. I can say the same for mine too. Good job for noticing her techniques.
ReplyDeleteWow, I applaud for your eagerness to finish the research.
Do you like the book?
Haha, you think your slacking on your project? At least your almost finished with your book. I still don't have my book. But it's ok, I'm working on that.
ReplyDeleteGood job though with reading and almost being done with your book. I really need to buy mines. I've only been reading articles for my author.
