Choice novels
So we have been introduced to the idea that we will have a choice novel to read and think about. However, my classmates and I have been led astray by our leader, for the "choices" of books are among a predetermined list that must include our decision. Therefore in essence we are not really choosing which books we read but being told we have to read a specific book from the predestined books. I am not so much angry at the choice of books we get because they are fairly decent looking books, no, I am angry at the misleading that has been put onto us by giving us the "choice".

Me too! I thought we were going to be able to choose any book we wanted. But no, of course not. I was completely looking forward to picking a new book, but hopefully the one I get asigned wont be too bad.
ReplyDeleteyah I thought that we could pick any book we wanted and I was really excited because I had a really good book and now we have to chose from a selection of books... :(
ReplyDeletehaha Alex...I agree..but hey I got paired with a great "choice" novel...Book Thief. I would suggest it to anyone who is looking for a true choice novel.
ReplyDeleteAlex this is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Choice is defined as an abundance or variety of things to choose from. Every choice we have has perameters. When asked what do you want for dinner, you have a CHOICE of what to have, but you can't choose a food that doesn't exist. Every choice we make has predetermined options so quit whining.
