My two favorite blogs for this week was Rebecca's and George's. I felt that they both spent a lot of time on them and it shows because they both very well written.
What I like about Becca's is that she did something unique: she compared characters from other books by the same author to what she was reading. This was focused on one main thing: character and it wasn't lacking anything. She stood focused and it wasn't repitive. She compared the characters and said many different things in different ways while doing this. She gave a lot of textual evidence that supported what she thought which helped. Because of all of this, she convinced me of her statement and made me think new, considering I've read some of Sarah Dessen's books. It was very organized and set up as a miniature essay.
What I like about George's is his comparison and professionalism. I liked how when he compared the different books he didn't compare something common. Instead he compared the government between the two books. It shows, based on his textual evidence and thoughts that he pays close attention to many things. In a way this also gives him some voice to show what he's interested in: politics and social studies. It was also very professional and organized in a manner where there were differnet things for each paragraph and the language he used was very impressive. Lastly, I liked how he summed up the his response briefly once again to end it off making sure that the reader and him were on the same page.
All three responses were very well written but these two ones stuck out to me the most for different reasons.
