Quiz, Blog, & Last Book Choice

Today, after I answer any specific questions about the memoirs you read, we will take a quiz on the books. Please answer the essay portion of the test on your blog.

Before the test, you will be picking up one of four books:

All books have similar archetypal plots dealing with character growth and "self discovery" (the name of our course). You may choose from:

Cantora by Sylvia Lopez-Medina (Romance)
The Color Purple by Alice Walker (Realism)
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkein (fantasy)
A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula LeGuin (fantasy)

After you complete your test, please begin reading your chosen book. Please bring your book with you next class as we will be reading outside with it (weather permitting).
