I like to read informational books or self help. I just don’t want to take English in college so getting it done now is best.]]> 2022-01-19 17:05:31 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000967337 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000970047 I like to read fantasy books, I will read basically anything that seems interesting to me. Learning how to get more out of reading and how to understand books better interests me. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:06:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000970047 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000971557 Fareed Zakaria ]]> 2022-01-19 17:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000971557 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000971596 My name is Shelby Robinson and I enjoy reading thrillers or mysteries and the last book I read was Fear Street a New Beginning.]]> 2022-01-19 17:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000971596 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000974286 The most recent book I read was Inferno by Dan Brown. I like to read fiction and mystery.
What interests me most in this class is the classic literature that we will be reading ]]> 2022-01-19 17:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000974286 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000975305 I’m currently reading/participating in Hamlet. I enjoy Shakespeare and Classical literature. I love Victor Hugo and Molíere. I’m excited for this course to tech me about American literature and provide opportunities for group discussions and analyses.

It’s the fourth book in an epic fantasy written by Brandon Sanderson. I really enjoy a lot of works of fiction. Part of the reason I joined this class is I enjoyed really learning how to express myself in AP Lang, and I’m looking forward to further learning and refining my skills on that. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000975702 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000976567 Last book I read was Firefly lane. 
I don’t really care what author, but my favorite books are usually dystopians. 
 What excites me about this class is getting exposed to new kinds of books/ literature. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:09:10 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000976567 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000976848 I’m reading to kill a mockingbird. 
I like to read books with a good meaning behind them.  
I took English 1010 and learned a lot. It was a very enjoyable class, so I am excited for English 2200!]]> 2022-01-19 17:09:13 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000976848 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000978781 I recently read the Wednesday Letters and love to read fiction. But I am open to other genres. Specifically, I read works by C.S Lewis and Rick Riordan. This course interests me because I want to learn more from literature especially poetry because I have a hard time understanding it sometimes. I am taking lots of concurrent enrollment like this class to prepare for college. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:09:51 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000978781 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000980137 I love Rupi Kaur, Kierra Cass, and Shannon Hale. Usually I read a fantasy, fiction. I also love murder mysteries though.
I'm taking this class for the educational value. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:10:26 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000980137 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000981784 I have read most of the rangers apprentice series, and I enjoy historical fiction especially on WWII. I have never liked English classes and I'm not very excited. but this is a requirement for the degree I am working for. I guess I would like to increase my writing skills.]]> 2022-01-19 17:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000981784 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000981999 I'm currently reading S. by Doug First and J. J. Abrams and Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. I like to read science fiction and fantasy. The variety of topics for reading are what interest me about this course ]]> 2022-01-19 17:11:11 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000981999 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000982685 The last book that I read was The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, and currently I am re-reading Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone. I really enjoy reading poetry ( anything by Atticus has my heart and soul! ) as well I enjoy  reading anything rom-com! In terms of this course, I have been an avid reader my entire life, but as I got into high school I had less and less time to read and this class presents the perfect opportunity to force myself to read. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:11:26 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000982685 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000985780 Right now I’m reading a book called Stay Sexy & Don’t Get Murdered by Karen Kilgariff & Georgia Hardstark. I started reading it because my best friend got it for me because she loved the authors. The authors both run a podcast and the way the stories are written reflect that. I’m only at the beginning of it but so far it doesn’t have one big overarching story rather small stories the authors want to tell to show their opinion on a matter. For example one of them just finished a story on how her dad told her to just be polite and don’t talk when out of turn. She said “F**k that” and continued to tell how she thinks the idea of people just sitting “politely” taking others bullying was a BS thing little girls were taught to do.]]> 2022-01-19 17:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000985780 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000986155 I am reading hidden monster. I like to read romance and fiction kind of books, I don’t really have any authors that I like to read as of right now. The thing that interests me about this course is being able to read more poems and texts about books or poems that I would never would have thought to read.]]> 2022-01-19 17:12:44 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2000986155 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2001013491 I finished Great Expectations a while ago and was surprised by how my perception of the characters changed over the story. I like to read Poe, Dickens, gothic literature, etc. The thing I am most looking forward to in the course is exposure to new stories I would not have thought to read. ]]> 2022-01-19 17:23:35 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2001013491 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2004203207 I read life and death by Stephanie Mayer, it was interesting to see the same themes with characters of different genders. I also have read the entries babe chronicles. I love anything by Cassandra Clair or Rick riordion. I am taking this class because I love literature and I thought it would be fun ]]> 2022-01-21 02:49:32 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2004203207 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2004286352 Alayna Geddes
I read Atomic Habits by James Clear this last year and really liked it. I typically like to read historical and realistic fiction. One thing I look forward to is being able to read more classic novels.]]> 2022-01-21 03:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2004286352 https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2007444566 I just finished Fahrenheit 451 in my English class. I know it was a required book to read, but I really enjoyed it. It had so many good lessons to learn. It astonishes me that it was written in the 50's because of just how relevant it is today.  I love kind of dystopian novels that comment on things that go on in our world.]]> 2022-01-23 18:46:24 UTC https://padlet.com/amandaplaizier3/ltbhdke3gtkmnlh6/wish/2007444566
