I finished this last night, I just may finish this challenge yet! This book was really good, very interesting and the author was funny. It basically takes you through some of the different themes in books and how to look for clues and symbols to figure out what the author is really saying in a story. I don't know how much it will help me, but I think I'll notice more when I read now.

Yea! I think this one sounds interesting. Maybe one day. :)
I need to read this book. Sometimes I pick up on recurring themes, but most of the time I just sit back and enjoy. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but maybe I could learn to do both.
When I was in grad school and thinking about teaching I had this book on my wishlist forever. Always thought it sounded interesting.
I love this book and use it often for book club. I was once asked during Welty's The Optimist Daughter what the bird trapped in the house meant. Well, o/f I read the book two months later and knew! Freedom and if she didn't get out of the house she would be trapped too! :) A day late and a dollar short, as always...
