Blog #10: Class Evaluation

In this class I've truly learned the importance of literature and books.  Without both of these, our society could easily turn into any of the terrible societies that we read about in the novels we covered this semester.  After this class I plan on making more of an effort to pick up more books to read, especially books that I normally would not have read on my own.  I really liked the set up of this class, how we were able to discuss the books in class and were not taught at, only nudged in the right direction.  I feel that I become a more critical reader when I had to analyze the books I read myself, instead of being told what the books were supposed to mean.  This is a great new skill because before I could not analyze a book to save my life, I could never see the deeper meaning and never knew how to go about looking for that deeper meaning.  This class has been one of my favorite of my college career and I am likely not to forget what I have learned in this class.
