I haven't read anything this week, and the week off has been great, but now I need to get back to the reading. I'm going to pick up Shadow of the Giant, which follows Bean's story after his time in battle school. I've been thinking about the books over the week and I've been contemplating the author's overall view of nature. In finishing Speaker for the Dead, I uncovered some very powerful and deep quotes from the book that an entire paper could be structured around. One of those included:
"For he loved her, as you could only love someone who is an echo of yourself at your time of your deepest sorrow."
From quotes like this which there are enough of to compile, I could form a thesis covering these quotes and how they give a deeper insight in to the characters and their motivations than other pieces of literature.
That's the kind of stuff I'm dealing with here. A lot of material.

Hi Arin:
Good critical thinking here. Love that quote in your 6th post. Explain more about how you could develop your paper around it. You're off to a great start.
