Animal Farm free write

Honestly, I have mixed feelings about Animal farm. At first I kinda liked it. The book looked skinny enough to not be overwhelming. Also, I liked how the chapters were shorter and were less stressful than the chapters of To Kill A Mockingbird. I enjoyed being able to read the book with a partner and going slowly to talk about things but at the same time it was extremely hard for me to focus with so much noise and every one at different spots. That activity was hard to stay focused but I ended up doing really well on the test.

As we go on, I realize that I don't like the book so much. For me, I don't enjoy reading about things that don't really happen. For example, all the animals can talk. It frustrates me to read about things that are not real. Also, in part of the book it talks about how the animal was giving out orders to a human which really annoys me. I guess I just don't enjoy using my imagination when it comes to non-existing things.
