My personal homage to the world of literature and the effects it has had on my life. I have a passion and obsession with British Literature, among other genres. My first dose of British Literature occured during my trip to the United Kingdom while I was in junior high. That trip and that book, Pride and Prejudice, guided my decision to become an English teacher. I want to use this space as book reviews and how I may/may not use them in the classroom.

The Hobbit
I am about halfway through the book and am trying to keep it straight from the Lord of The Rings. It is confusing how Bilbo is the main character in the book. I think it is an easy read and I like how the author talks to you as you read the book either to clarify or make a point about something. I like how Bilbo thinks he is weak, but he is actually very clever and brave. Also, I think it is funny how he keeps referring to the fact that he wants to go back to his hobbit hole. Bilbo a websit about Bilbo Baggins.

I like you have to keep Lord of The Rings out of my head. I don't usually like these types of books, just not my favorite thing to read. This one is not difficult to read and it's interesting enough to have kept me going through it. The characters in the story were interesting and the situations did make for some amusement/and/or excitment. Not a bad read, always nice to read something that I normally wouldn't pick up.
