Write a Book Review of The Enchanted

AGENDA:

First read over this article about writing a book review:

http://writingcenter.unc.edu/handouts/book-reviews/

Then write your book review of Rene Denfeld's The Enchanted remembering that you must have an argument or thesis about the book. Included in your analysis should be a summary of the book, but the major portion of your review should focus on the writing techniques that Denfeld employs to accomplish what she set out to do with the novel.  What was the writer attempting to do?  Did she succeed?  Cite specific examples that help support your argument regarding the writer's development of theme and characterization?  What about the use of language (any key passages to quote)?
Do not reveal the ending (spoiler alert), but describe how the plot moves to the ending!
