Quarter II Reading Assignment (QRA), Due: 20 December 2017

All of the studies suggest that frequent readers tend to write, read, speak, and understand language on a level that infrequent readers struggle to reach.  For this reason, you are required to read a novel  (250 pages) outside of class.   The subject of the book is entirely up to you so long as it is age appropriate, of sufficient length, and is a book that you have NEVER READ BEFORE.  

To get credit for your book, you must write a five paragraph essay which contains the following components:
1) MLA Formatting
2)  Name of book and author
3) Number of pages in the book (be accurate)
4)  Two paragraphs summarizing the plot of the book 
5)  One paragraph identifying two characters that you relate to and why

-Be specific

-This section needs to include two quotes from the novel (including pg #)

6)  One paragraph detailing the elements of the book that struck you

-Writing Style

-Characters

-Situations/twists, etc.

7) Recommendation paragraph: Do you recommend the book?              
8) ENGLISH 101 ONLY: One paragraph detailing why the book is a European classic

-Why is it a classic?

-How did it influence European culture?

-How did it influence literature as a whole?

-Why is it still relevant today?
