blog review

i chose rebekah's blog, for a few reasons
first of all, her posts do NOT slack off. she leaves no idea unexplored, and no thought unexplained. when you finish her post, you feel like you've actually read something, instead of just reading someones homework. that's really important, because not only is the post more interesting, but you feel like it's not just a homework assignment. like it's a review, or an essay. i think that it's very important for a post to have substance.
secondly, she goes outside the books. one problem that i have is that i usually retell too much. rebekah never has that problem. she gives you the basic feeling of the book. but then she goes to a completely different place. that's great because retelling is quite boring, while new thoughts are very interesting.
the last reason why i like rebekah's blog is because she gives examples from her life to help support her ideas. this is a great technique because it both makes the post more believable, and grounds it.
so here's saluting a blog far supreior to my own
good job rebekah!!!
