I liked the storyline of The Scarlet Letter, but I think it could have been cut down to simpler sentences to make it more interesting and engaging to read. I think we should continue to read it because it's a classic book that has an interesting meaning behind it.

The Scarlet Letter was an interesting book because of its writing style however, I did not enjoy the storyline of the novel. I felt as if it was too plain. However, I do think the book should still be read because of the number of literary devices used.

I enjoyed reading the book because the characters were interesting to follow along through their rather bizarre development. I think people should continue to read it because the book has a lot of symbolism that can be dissected.

I thought the Scarlet Letter was a very interesting book, while hard to read at times, overall it was fun to read.  I think we should continue to read it because the book is a classic story that has a lot of literary devices to analyze.

I sort of liked the book because I thought the plot and Hawthorne's criticism of the Puritans was interesting, however, I would have enjoyed it more if the book was rewritten, made sense, and added more conflicts and plot. I think we should continue to read it because the story is 'easy' to follow along and can be dissected.

Generally I liked it because I thought the 17th century drama was entertaining. We should continue to read it because it includes important themes and messages, but I think the chapter tests should be scrapped or simplified because the old style language makes it hard to remember small details even if you paid attention while reading.

Although this book was hard to understand at first, it was very fun learning how to annotate the book. I was very intrigued by the multiple symbolisms that were presented and the overall plot was very interesting!

I liked the book. I thought it was great that it was challenging an idea that wasn't greatly accepted in society at the time. I think we should continue to read it, because I think it had an interesting plot.

the overall plot of the novel was interesting but ultimately i think it was pretty boring to read just because of the archaic nature of it and the really long sentences. maybe adopting a more modern book to the HAL curriculum would be more engaging?

Overall, I had mixed feelings about this book. The events throughout the chapters allowed us to analyze it thoroughly, yet, at some points, I found it rather dull. I do believe that we should keep reading it because it demonstrates critical literary devices.

I sorta liked this book, and even though it was a little tough to understand, it had a great storyline. I do think the language is the most difficult part to understand, but once you get past that, it's a good book. I think we should continue to read it because it's a classic story and it's challenging, but in a good way.

I did like The Scarlet Letter becuase of the story line and important messages shared throughout the book. I also believe it was nice that we were able to read a older book that was more challenging. I believe future classes should continue to read it.

I thought the book was very interesting. I sorta liked it since some parts of the book were fun to read and the other part were kinda plain. I still think that the book should still be read since it is a very meaningful book.

I thought the Scarlet Letter had an interesting plot and is applicable in modern day, but I think there are many other books that are more engaging to read. It was a bit difficult to read, but I think it is a good classic for future classes to read as well.

I enjoyed the plot of the Scarlet Letter, but at some times the book was difficult the read. I think it is important for us to read it in the future because of the many small details and literary devices used.

While I thought that The Scarlet Letter was an interesting historical approach to a complex societal issue such as public shaming, Hawthorne's writing was wordy and included, in my opinion, many unnecessary details. If it was up to me, I would pick a different book that features more relatable/diverse characters and themes.

I did not love TSL, but I surprisingly didn't hate it either! The themes, plot, and characters were engaging, however, it was very difficult to read and understand at times because of Hawthorne's writing style. I think that we should continue reading it because it touches on important themes not often talked about in literature, and I think that is important to critique the topics/people that we learn about in school rather than just learning the straight up "good" parts about them.

I did not like the plot of the Scarlet Letter too much. But I think we should continue to read it because it is a good book that has a lot of literary devices that can be anaylzed well if given to the right writer.

I personally disliked the book and did not find it that interesting overall. It was a difficult book to read and I do not think we should continue to read it as I believe we could read something more useful to us.

I thought the scarlet letter was interesting, although I do not think I would have read it on my own free will. Although the plot is interesting, Hawthorne often loses himself in the description of random things which serves to confuse the reader a bit. I think future classes should continue to read it, as it is a unique insight into early America, and has some very clear literary techniques which allow better student analysis.

I thought the book was quite interesting, providing a critical analysis of Puritan culture. Overall, I would say that it is fun to read and that we should continue to read it in the future, despite the challenging diction used throughout the novel.

I sort of liked the book, but I felt that the plot was kind of simple and could have been made more interesting. I think future classes should read this book because it contains a lot of literary devices and covers a theme that is still relevant to society today.

Although the plot and language used was overall engaging, I found it difficult to relate to most of the themes highlighted in the novel. Instead of continuing to read this novel, we should begin a different book with themes more relevant to our society and lives.

I think the story was somewhat anticlimactic for its relatively complex storyline but it was very interesting, especially because of its incredible use of symbolism throughout the book. It was difficult to read and extremely long for how short it could have been but it is referenced a lot today so it's a very important book to read in today's age.

I liked The Scarlet Letter because it portrays the effects of public shaming and guilt, however, I think the book was difficult to read because of the old language. In my opinion, I would recommend reading this book in the future because it is challenging to analyze and pick up on the small details, which may make students writing & reading abilities stronger.
