Letter number one: Write a three-paragraph letter to your reading partner. Be sure to include: a friendly introduction, a discussion of the characterization and emerging themes, a description of the point in the novel when you felt hooked, and a description of a passage that had particularly strong imagery or action for you. Include at least three questions you have after reading. The point of the letter is to make insights that your partner may have missed. Your partner needs to respond to your letter on the page you send to them—be creative with your letters! DUE ON APRIL 3rd OR BEFORE YOU LEAVE FOR SPRING BREAK! YOU SHOULD BE COMPLETED WITH AT LEAST HALF OF YOUR BOOK AT THIS POINT.
Letter number two: This letter should again start with a friendly introduction, a description of where you read the conclusion of your book, and one memorable aspect of your Spring Break. Describe in paragraph two your response to the denouement of the novel: was the resolution ironic or unexpected in anyway? In paragraph three describe what type of reader might like this book. Who specifically would you recommend this novel to and why? Finally, was this novel worth reading? How did it differ from your literature circle book or other books you typically read? Your partner needs to respond to your letter on the page you send to them. THIS FINAL LETTER SHOULD BE WRITTEN AFTER YOU FINISH YOUR NOVEL AND SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY APRIL 22nd.
