The week before Thanks giving break, reading lord of the flies consumed my life. I was having to read over things on multiple occasions and spending time that I barley had in the first place. Some of the main things hat a have noticed is that Jack is a total jerk and gets really annoying really quickly, and Simon seems to be smarted and better than everyone else (would be a better leader) but does not say anything because he is also humble.
Then, Piggy is a total wimp without the conch and when he has it he speaks his mind and feels like whatever he says is right and does not have consequences. Lastly, Ralph seems like he is not use to being in charge, he does not really know what he is doing and it feels like he is just going off a T.V. show.Some questions that I have relate to all the symbols. Why does Jack keep pushing piggy around, and will it ever extremely effect the story-line? I only ask this because piggy is my main character and if Jack is going to keep doing this I'm going to bring on the HURT. haha just kidding.
Times-
3 hours and 43 minutes all together (note: I had to reread some sections)
Matched- 30 minutes
I agree with all of that, especially that piggy is a wimp. In the beginning of the book I felt bad for Piggy because of his asthma and obesity, but now he just needs to tuffen up and become a survivor. I don't think Piggy will last much longer if he keeps acting this way.
