Final Blog Reflection

http://sheradynsaglesreadingblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/blog-post-3-quentin-finds-out-that.html

I picked this blog post to be my best blog post because I related my book Paper Towns to the song "better than revenge"by Taylor swift. This was a good thing that I did because it is showing how I could relate what I was reading to real life experiences and things that are going on in the real world. Also in this blog post I showed how I could provide textual evidence to support what I was saying. In the post I was talking about how Margo wanted to get revenge on her boyfriend because he cheated on her and then I related it to the song "better that revenge" and then I provided 2 lines from the song that showed that the book and the song relate to each other. In the post it says"A good quote from this song by Taylor swift would be 'She should keep in mind There is nothing I do better than revenge'"(third paragraph). Then after I provided the quote I went on to explain how the line from the text shows how Margo wants to get revenge and she wants it to be very good so she even gets help from Quentin to make the sabotage better. The next line that I provided was "Another quote would be 'She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum'"(paragraph three). Also after I provided this quote I went on to explain how Margo is feeling a lot of pain from what her boyfriend did to her and this song can relate and explain the pain that she is feeling. This was my best blog post because I related my book to real world experiences and provided evidence to prove it to be correct.

The goals that I have for myself regarding future reading is I would like to read more books. In one semester I only read 3 books which was the requirement. I want to go above and try to read more than I should. My goal for next year would be to read 5 books in one semester. I would also like to try to challenge my self more with the books that I am reading. I like to read books at my reading level, but I going to try to read more books that are harder. Also I didn't write much this year and i am going to try to write more and try to fix the mistakes that I make in my writing. I want to focus on the harder thing in writing that I normally forget.
