Chase I know I’ll like this book just from what we’ve read. My favorite character so far is the mother (can’t remember her name.) She isn’t paranoid… everyone really **is** out to get her. P.S. [Queue Music] “Yah dah dada dada duh duh dah da”

This book is getting good already. Though I'm not really that into it yet, I think something is about to cascade. I think Mom'll start snapping on the daughter a little more and maybe even drop her. LOL. That's really crazy. Laura's mom found out that she dropped out of school. I really do want to find out what happens next just as long as its not another boring play. I hope somebody gets shot in here. Naw, i was just playing:) Jessica Young  I think this play is ok so far. I’m not really pulled into it. I like the mother character, she’s probably my favorite. I think as we get along in the play I’ll begin to enjoy it more, I think it’s only because were still in the opening scene. I love reading plays though, and I love memory plays they’re the best.

This book has started off okay. Once again we have great strong readers to play the parts of the characters. It may take time for me to understand the story because of right now I am some what confused and am not as interested as I usually am about the books we read in class. When it started off, I didn't understand what was the point for the girl to lie to her mother about school. She said so herself that she was an adult. S0 C0NFUSiNG. [JAMiLA]

Nick Gutierrez This book has started off pretty interestingly. The characters are all unique and somewhat exaggerated. There's some good comic relief, as well as some drama. I like where it is going and hope that it turns out to be as good as it looks, thus far.

Shannon Yancey: This book has started off quite nice for me. The imagery is wonderful, and the author of this play seems to write as if it was a poem, using tons of sweet metaphors and flowery speech. I love it. I also like some of the begining character foundations, all of the characters are distinct and colorful. The play seems to start off kind of eclectic (or possibly even eccentric), which really adds to the colorful nature of the play as something not completely ordinary. I also like the description of the setting and the reminiscent perception cast by the narrarator, with its dimly lit view of the past. It gives not only a sense of emotion, but also a strong sense of realism to the play, calling upon our own sense of emotion which can distort our memories. I once again like our readers, and I love reading books like this, it's kind of cool to have kids who don't normally give two craps about a school book enthralled in what you say, it really makes me appreciate this class. I hope we read alot more books. ☺

Markquis Robinosn this is becoming very interresting. She has just foud ou that he daughter has lie about where she has been going. She was suppose to be going off to college but they just found out that she dropped out weeks ago. Things are getting very crazy.

**__Alex Ortega__** I was somewhat intrigued by this book. I think that the circus music “Glass Menagerie” is sort of describing the narrator’s world around him. It was the time during the Great Depression and his sister dropped out of school. It seemed to be so crazy and insane, it might as well be a cheap circus show, and the fact that the fire escape traps people in their sad little world.

Tyshawn Harris This book is all right since i really dont like to read books. But this one is really catching my attention. Mom is some what like my mom. They are always on your back but in my case i didnt lie. When you lie to your mother or anyone in your family they will never believe you again. The daughter should have lied to her mother now its going to be hard to get her mother to trust her again.

Mike Murray The Glass Menagerie seems like a pretty compelling book and I especially enjoy listening to the part of Amanda the mother because of her southern drawl and (Non New York) venacular. I wonder what the daughter Laura is //really// doing in her spare time besides going to school, I also wonder if it involves my character Jim at all, directly or indirectly. I was a little confused when they were talking about the gentlemen that they had to entertain though, but I am sure that I will understand it sooner or later.

Alex Galotti This book seems to be described as a sattire of some sort by the surreal lighting and stage effects described in the play setup at the beginning of the book. In the section that we read, we find out that the daughter hasnt actually been going to college like she's been saying she has.

Brian Jolly This Book already seems a little bit strange just because of how it said the mom is the only sane one in the family but forreal....it looks like shes not...and i wonder whats been going on with the daughter since she hasnt been going to school, and the son looks like he may be bipolar and lastly what happened to the dad???cant wait to find out
