One way to tell is that Day incorporated diction‚ or word choice‚ and tone to specify who her book is for. She uses hashtag symbols in her

And also he knew that by having the support of aristocratic figures‚ more and more people would take an interest in him and his book. This brings me to another point on the tactics that Gustavus Vassa used. Having prominent names in the list of subscribers and given Vassa support could have given‚ or did give the English people security on what they were reading‚ if it was interesting

am still reading Ophelia Speaks by Sara Shandler. When I first started reading the book I was very interested in it but as I got further in reading the book personally I feel like it gets more depressing. They are all stories about how people have messed up in their lives in many different types of ways or the people’s family issues. It is a good way to learn what not to do‚ which will help some people. But‚ this book for me it is very boring because I would like to read something that is more entertaining

For example as I was reading the coach said that rowing is difficult and will take every ounce of effort in your body. This relates to the class because there will be days
