This was definitely my favorite book out of the three. It was much more captivating then the other two, and I found myself reading 100 pages at a time! (which was good, considering I got a late start on it… haha) The main character was such a coward in the beginning and I did not like him at all; however, towards the end, I just wanted things to work out for him. It was a very emotional read and actually brought tears to my eyes at the end of chapter 24 when I thought Sohrab was gone… I enjoyed this book because it was so incredibly impactful and very well written. I chose to have a conversation with the story for the annotation method of this book. I drew smiley faces for things I liked and different events that brought a smile to my face, and I drew sad or crying faces for the majority of the rest of the events. This was a very sad book… In parts of the book that I agreed with, I would draw exclamation points, and when I wanted to challenge the author about something I disagreed with, I would draw question marks or angry faces. Here and there, I also wrote some random comments about the events and how I felt about them or what I thought about them. In general, this was my favorite annotation method because it connected me to the book more and made it more of a conversation instead of a lecture.
