Jose's post on legend and Prodigy (can't get link right now.) was really good and wanted me to try and read the book myself as soon as I got the chance to do so because of his really specific detail!
He gave such great examples of certain characters feeling and backed it up real nicely with necessary background info. The things he said in those details made me feel really bad about what happened in this persons life and made we wanna read more to see the end result!
Also he backed up really well on why he thought the book was just splashed with injustice everywhere! I mean sure he may have spoiled a bit of the book for us but I feel it was the necessary type of thing to do to prove his point, so this gives him a pass for not being yelled at by me saying he spoiled the book for me and should never talk to me again.
Overall, detail is what matters most to make a good blog into a great blog, and that's exactly what Jose had done.

Manny, I think you did a really good job with summarizing the feel and the good components of Jose's post! I felt it was very straight forward and easy to understand and yet take into fact that Jose's is a complex and very in depth blog post (i read it) and you did a great job cutting it down!
ReplyDeleteI like how you wrote why his examples were great and that you connected it to your life and said that now you want to read it. I got why his post was so good just by reading this and now I feel like I want to read Jose's post
ReplyDeleteI like how you deeply analyzed the text and related yourself to the text ( text-to-self). That really influenced me read Jose's post and see how it relates to me and my life.
