Conversation Reflection

In class today, we talked about how we personally thought the book was really strange. Some things we mentioned was that it's strange to think of the concept of not having parents or even a family for that matter. Another thing we thought that was strange was that the children played together naked. I explained how I didn't really like the idea and thought it dumb to have such structured human being beause it ultimately took the individual characteristic out of everyone. Hannah, Judith, Sierra, Stevie and Siera all agreed that the story was extremely strange. We talked about how it was extremely difficult to follow because it jumped back and forth almost every paragraph. 

I also talked about this book with my boyfriends dad who has read it three times now. He said the first time he read it he didn't like it that much either, that it was hard to understand. He said once he read it the second and third time it was more interesting and he got a lot more out of it. He said that the beginning can be hard to follow, but give it a chance because it does get better.
