Personal Effects

I have really enjoyed reading Personal Effects, a novel written by J.C. Hutchins. This book is very different from any other book I have read. The story line is very complicated and therefore forces the reader to really think and try to figure out the different clues. I also find it interesting that not only is Zach trying to figure out the Martin Grace case but at the same time he is dealing with problems in his family and the mystery of his Uncle. Additionally the different pictures and websites that come with his book force the reader to become even more involved in the story line. This is my favorite book I have read so far at Sem and I am excited to see the end result and solve this mystery!

I did not notice that clue. You read every detail in the book. And I have the same sense of pictures and websites, they did attract me to follow the story line in the book.

Each student will be required to make one comment per week about the discussion. Each comment should be at least a short paragraph in length (3-5 sentences). Comments can be responses to discussions already underway on the blog or in class. I will judge comments based on the insightfulness of the commentary and the tendency to provoke further discussion; they fall under the participation portion of the grade. Students must remember to be respectful of other people’s ideas, even if they do not agree with them. As the blog administrator, I will eliminate any posting that I deem inappropriate.
