Reading Journal

One of the ways that you will be using your English blogs will be to keep a journal of the books that you are reading.

Each week, starting from today, you will be writing a brief reflection on the book that you are currently reading. Your reflections may include the following:

* What the book is about
* What you have learned about the characters
* What you think the main themes/ideas/messages are of the book
* What you think of the author's writing style
* Why other people should/shouldn't read it
* Once you finish the book, you may like to give it a rating (you can choose whether to give a numerical rating, star rating, etc.)

Part of this activity will be that you can go onto other people's blogs to see what they are reading and maybe get some ideas about what you may like to read next. With this in mind, please do not spoil any major plot points when you are writing about your books!
