Me as a Reader
Have your reading skills/interests changed over the course of the semester? Discuss.
I now have a larger vocabulary, and am able to understand more words that I encounter while reading books. My interests have stayed relatively the same, aside from the fact that I am now more open to reading a book, even if it is not very interesting at first.
How have the books that you've read throughout the semester changed you?
The books I have read this semester have made me more aware of my surroundings, and more careful when it comes to participating in certain events. Aside from that, I don't find that books really change me because I read fiction books, which I don't think are powerful enough to change a person permanently.
How has your reading this semester given you insight into new things (thoughts, ideas, information, etc.)?
After reading The Kite Runner I have realized and become more aware of the fact that life in other parts of the world is not as great, and that many people are less fortunate. My reading this semester has definitely given me insight into thinking about things more thoughtfully.
