For the majority of this book, I was wondering what the heck the point of it was. It just seemed like a random, pointless read. I did, however, really enjoy the style with which the author described things. Although the sentences got a little long and complicated at times, I always found that the faster I read, the easier it was to comprehend and the more I appreciated his thoroughness. For this book, I used the annotation method that focused on finding the meaning within the book and what it was trying to teach. I did a lot of highlighting key words and phrases, and whenever I found repeated references in the book, I would write the page number of the other references in the margin. I also did some short summarizing in the margins, and I underlined any phrases I found particularly important or interesting. Overall, I did not really enjoy this book; however, I believe that is only because I don’t understand the meaning and symbolism within it. Consequently, I am really looking forward to class discussions regarding this book! =)
