These quotes do not have to be actual character dialogue, although they may reflect dialogue. These should be typed and should reflect correct use of quotation marks and MLA parenthetical documentations. See the “how to do correct quotations” handout given the first day; you should also have typed on the same page two provocative questions about anything in the book. Your questions and quotes will be used in part as guideline for discussions in class; do not conspire with a neighbor about what to choose – use your own brain!
