I enjoy writing essays and anallysing literature, all parts and books. it depends on the type of teacher you get as well... I certainly would hate English it werent for my last three english teachers. (Ms. S., Mr.C,(had 2 years in a row
) and Mrs C.)
Flowers for Algernon- read that with Miss S. it was excellent I liked it
Of Mice and Men -only read an excerpt but seemed good
Beowulf-Loved it
The Odyssey- Awesome
Well no need for me to go on with all the books Ive read over the past 4 years I will say however that Tolkien's works even if it isn't LOTR are very useful in lessons. Fea I envy you, you have the best school, The only Author Friendly class we have is Shakespeare I and ShakespeareII, I joined them but I guess not enough students were interested so they dropped the class
Mr. C was going to teach it as well...(If you hadn't noticed Mr. C. is probably my favorite teacher at my school)
