Literature Circles

Hi everyone,

This term in reading we have been assigned into new literature circle groups and have been given a new novel to study.

I am in red group and am currently reading a novel called “Little Brother” by Allan Baillie.

Something that I am determined to achieve this term in literature circles is to make sure that when I complete a novel based task that I complete it to a high standard and that I put the time and effort into making it detailed.

What I have noticed about the book “Little Brother” is that it was first published in 1985 and that the copy that I am reading is the newer and more updated version. In my first impressions of the novel I thought that it was a new book that has just been released because of the style and layout of the front cover, however now I have realized that it has been around for quite some time now.  

I felt that I was successful in my literature circle task of making text connections as I thought about each one very carefully and tried to relate them to modern and current issues globally and in the media.

Overall, I am very excited to continue on reading my literature circle novel and to see what happens next.

What book are you currently reading?
