Book Clubs, 3rd Quarter

Your book club should be finishing up its "club choice" reading selection. For your meeting, please discuss the following items:

1) Purpose, genre and audience of the book -- did it satisfy?
2) Literary merit... look at your popcorn books if necessary, and discuss at least 6 applicable terms
3) What is the time/cultural/religious context of the book? For instance, The Iliad was Greek @ 800 B.C., polytheistic. What clues led you to this analysis?
4) Did you like the book? Why/why not? Give the book a rating out of 5 stars.

Please pick up book club cover sheets from the "paper table." Due for Book Club Forum in class March 31, the last day of the quarter.
