As you all know, question 3 on the AP Lit. exam is always on the BOLM. While I would love to believe that you are all reading your BOLMs in a dedicated manner and examining the Big 5 in all of them, I know that some of you won't really take in a great work of literature until we formally study it in class.
Well... for those folks... *yet another drumroll*... our books are almost here! I ordered a few class sets of BOLMs including my personal favorite book, Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. I actually wrote my question 3 essay on this particular text when I was in school. Hopefully we'll get our texts before the week ends so that we can start digging in very soon. This lack of novels is kind of ruining the AP Lit. rotation schedule that I'd envisioned.
Fingers Crossed!
Their Eyes Were Watching God is a great book :) I actually read it last year for my mandatory summer reading.
